Meet the Editor

JHONNADABY DUARTE

Founder and Lead Editor, Kerassentials

JHONNADABY DUARTE leads the editorial direction of Kerassentials and is responsible for the topics we cover, the sources we use, and the final review of published content.

Background and focus areas:

  • Independent publisher specializing in consumer health and wellness information, with a focus on nail care, skin care, and topical products
  • years of experience researching, writing, and reviewing health and wellness content for online audiences
  • Experience evaluating product claims, ingredient information, and labeling against publicly available regulatory guidance
  • Commitment to plain-language writing that helps readers understand a topic before they decide anything

Our editor’s role includes:

  • Choosing and prioritizing topics based on reader questions
  • Researching and verifying sources
  • Reviewing every article for accuracy, clarity, and compliance before publication
  • Managing corrections, updates, and reader feedback
  • Ensuring affiliate relationships are disclosed clearly

What Our Editor Is, and Is Not

Transparency about credentials matters, especially for health topics, so we will be direct:

  • The editor is an independent publisher and researcher, not a licensed physician, dermatologist, podiatrist, or pharmacist [edit this line if a licensed professional reviews your content].
  • Nothing on this site is a medical diagnosis, treatment recommendation, or substitute for professional care.
  • Our role is to gather, organize, and explain publicly available information, and to help you ask better questions when you speak with a healthcare provider.

If you suspect a nail infection, notice sudden changes in your nails, or live with a condition such as diabetes or circulatory problems, please consult a qualified healthcare professional. The American Academy of Dermatology and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are trustworthy starting points for general information.

How We Research Our Content

Our articles follow a consistent research process:

  1. Topic selection. We start with the questions readers actually ask about nail appearance, foot and hand care, and topical products.
  2. Source gathering. We prioritize authoritative sources, including government health agencies, medical organizations, and peer-reviewed literature such as that indexed in PubMed and summarized by MedlinePlus.
  3. Claim checking. For any product discussed, including Kerassentials, we compare marketing statements against what can reasonably be supported and note where evidence is limited.
  4. Regulatory awareness. We review guidance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the Federal Trade Commission so our language stays within accepted boundaries for health-related content.
  5. Editorial review. Each article is reviewed for accuracy, readability, balance, and clear disclosure before it goes live.
  6. Ongoing updates. We revisit content periodically and update it when new information emerges.

The full framework is described in our Editorial Policy.

Our Commitment to Independence and Disclosure

Kerassentials is supported by affiliate commissions. When you buy through certain links on our site, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you.

To protect the integrity of our content, our editor commits to the following:

  • No paid opinions. Commissions never determine what we write or how favorably we describe a product.
  • Clear disclosure. We follow the FTC Endorsement Guides and disclose material connections clearly and conspicuously.
  • Balanced coverage. We include limitations, considerations, and reasons a product may not suit everyone.
  • No fabricated testimonials. We do not invent reviews, experts, or customer stories.

Use of Technology and AI in Our Workflow

We use digital tools, including AI-assisted software, to support research organization, drafting, and editing. These tools never replace human judgment. Every published article is reviewed by our editor, who remains fully responsible for its content.

You can read exactly how we use these tools in our Artificial Intelligence Use Policy.

Accountability and Corrections

Health information must be accurate, and we take errors seriously. If you notice a factual mistake, an outdated statement, or unclear wording:

  • Tell us through our Contact Us page or share general comments through our Feedback Policy.
  • We will review the issue promptly, correct confirmed errors, and note significant updates as described in our Corrections Policy.
