Meet Czarina

Founder & Licensed Esthetician at C Skin Care & Wellness


Hi, I’m Czarina — professional esthetician and founder behind C Skin
Care & Wellness in Alameda, California.

I have always loved health, beauty, and the small rituals that can
help people feel more confident and comfortable in their own skin.

Growing up, my mom owned a boutique shop, and I still remember
watching her get ready for work each morning. Once she had taken that
little bit of time for herself, she seemed to stand a little taller.
That stayed with me.

Later, through more than two decades of working with older adults, I
saw that same idea from another perspective. Sometimes a haircut, a
little makeup, getting dressed up to see friends, or simply feeling
cared for could completely brighten someone’s day.

Those experiences shaped how I think about skincare today. For me, it
is not only about how skin looks. It is also about confidence,
consistency, feeling cared for, and building habits that support how
you want to look and feel over time.

Why “Wellness” Is Part of Our Name?

The word Wellness in C Skin Care & Wellness is intentional.



Professional skincare can play an important role, but what happens outside the treatment room matters too. Sleep, stress, nutrition, movement, hydration, sun protection, and consistent home care can all influence how skin looks and feels over time. That is why I want C Skin to be more than a place you visit for an occasional facial.

It should be a place where you can ask questions, better understand your skin, build realistic routines, and have a licensed esthetician in your corner as your skin changes through different stages of life. I believe in regular maintenance, starting early when possible, staying consistent, and making thoughtful adjustments as your needs change.

Skincare Through Different Stages of Life
Healthy-looking skin does not belong to one age group, and our needs naturally evolve over time.

As a mom of three daughters, including a teenager, I see firsthand how much breakouts and acne-prone skin can affect confidence. I want younger clients to have a welcoming, judgment-free place to learn how to care for their skin without embarrassment, overwhelm, or unrealistic expectations.

My years working with older adults also gave me a deep appreciation for aging with vitality and grace. Rather than treating aging as something to fight, I believe in supporting hydration, barrier health, comfort, smoothness, and a refreshed appearance so clients can feel confident at every stage of life.

Whether your focus is congestion, pigmentation, sensitivity, hydration, maintenance, or well-aging, treatment at C Skin begins with understanding what your skin needs now.

Rooted in Alameda
Alameda is home.

My family lives here, my kids go to school here, and I am proud to build C Skin Care & Wellness in the same community we are part of every day. One of the things I love most about Alameda is how connected it feels. Neighbors support neighbors. Families support local businesses. People look out for each other.

That sense of community reflects how I was raised and how I believe people should be treated — with care, respect, and a genuine interest in helping one another.

My hope is that C Skin becomes more than simply another skincare studio in Alameda. I want it to become a trusted local place where people feel comfortable, welcomed, and known.

Skincare That Feels Personal
Your skin is unique, and your appointments should feel that way too.

We take time to understand your concerns, your routine, your goals,and what is realistic for your life before deciding what makes sense for your skin.

No rushed appointments. No one-size-fits-all approach.
 
Just thoughtful, personalized care designed around you.

C Skin, Uniquely You.
