Interview With Rick Fox of SeaQuarius, LLC

By Nancy Welker, Founder   Mon, Jan 03, 2011

"We take great pride in creating products which are unlike anything you have ever used. The key ingredients infused into our scientifically advanced Sea Serums are sourced from the vast Oceans and Seas around the world........"  From the SeaQuarius Website

Today we have with us Rick Fox, President and Founder of SeaQuarius LLC, a company that is on the verge of launching a skin care product line that has been well-researched and expertly formulated.  With his business based in Orlando, Florida, Rick has spent years working on this project.  Read on to learn more about how "youthful aging skin care" may be possible!

 FBM: "Thank you for joining us, Rick.  Can you tell us about yourself and your company, SeaQuarius?"  

RF: I am a lover of the ocean and for most of my youth have enjoyed spending long days and nights on and under the waves.  Raised in south Miami, out of school leisure activities were in the waters of the Florida Keys.  On weekends and during the hot summer months I could be found fishing and diving on the living coral reef and on the edge of the deep blue Gulfstream current from Key Largo all the way down to Key West  and beyond.  These years, spent with the salty water literally up my nose, provided me with a deep appreciation for the beauty and bounty of the sea.  SeaQuarius LLC., is my expression, originating from these early years, to create and bring to the market marine skin care which directly connects us to the botanical, elemental and biological treasures of the Sea.  

 FBM:"What made you choose to use ocean-derived ingredients as opposed to any others?"  

RF: Oceanography and Marine Biology were my original interests at Florida State U.  I decided, however,  to study Media Communication and Marketing.

We have however currently partnered with various well established biotech and aquaculture companies, around the world, who have the necessary research capabilities to discover, evaluate and affirm novel and mysterious ocean ingredients for their use in our skin care formulas.  Our sea source formulas contain specially chosen, concentrated and highly active marine isolates which vary in biological and chemical composition from those of land based. 

FBM: "Tell us more about your product line.  What is the name of it? How much advance work did you do before you decided to produce it? How long has it been in the research and development stage?"

RF: Our product offerings come under the principal brand of SeaQuarius® Skin Care.  The brand name SeaQuaderm® represents our gentle sea infused, cleansing product..  The Sea Serum(s) will consist of highly concentrated marine botanical, biological and elemental ingredients to be absorbed into the skin after cleansing.  We also have an spf 25 facial sun protection product in development which will deliver numerous health benefits to the skin in addition to the sun protection factor provided.  The various Sea Serums, we are creating, are simple to use and they offer intense hydration, protection from the harsh environment, stimulation of skin cell renewal as well as help to prevent the degradation of collagen and elastin in the skin.

We have been closely working with various companies in their  R & D laboratories since 2009.  The molecular chemistry behind our formulas is our greatest challenge and opportunity.  It is a challenge to formulate within specified guidelines of sustainability, safety and effectiveness, however, meeting these obstacles provides the very reasons why we are in business.

FBM: "When should your products become available, and will they be sold to the general public or just to professionals?"

RF: We anticipate the official release sometime in 2011.   The ease of use, of our sea source skin care products, makes them compatible to the final end user.  This end user, rather than professionals, is our primary customer and this helps us provide more economic value than if intermediaries were needed.

 FBM:"What do you see as the future of your company?" 

RF: As founder of SeaQuarius LLC., I see myself continuing to develop, market and manage additional diverse and marine oriented product lines which directly connect individuals to numerous benefits of the Sea.

 FBM: "How do you define beauty?"  

RF: A feeling of contentment and allurement one may get when viewing a clear and deep blue ocean at sunset or a similar feeling one may find when looking upon the opposite sex.  There are undoubtedly other thoughts on beauty but this is the one I keep coming back to.

 Thank you, Rick, for being with us today.  I'm sure everyone is going to be eagerly awaiting the arrival of SeaQuarius products!
