The science behind skin of color & Caribbean skin

Skin of color has much higher melanocyte activity. Melanocytes are the cells that provide melanin to our beautiful brown and exotic skin tones.

With mixes in the Caribbean such as Indian, Asian, African, Portuguese, Spanish and many more, we have melanin, hair follicles and pore sizes of all types and genetically we span a wider range of skin issues that most other populations. Our melanocytes must be treated gently. If not, this can lead to hyperpigmentation.

Your goal is to preserve youthful, blemish free skin well in to your 50’s and 60’s.

Glowing skin is attainable

With a consistent, scientifically formulated, thoughtful skin care routine your skin can be glowing like the golden Caribbean sunshine.

Our treatments are formulated with skin of color in mind. Our products boast of active ingreditents such as niacinamide, salicylic acid, mandelic acid, kojic acid, alpha arbutin & squalene. Not only are the ingredients the first choice for skin of color, but the formulations have been done by chemists, skin care specialists in an FDA approved Lab in the USA.

Understanding that not all skincare is regulated is part of the reason why you may not get results from over-the-counter brands.

Acne vulgaris can be very delibitating to teen agers as their self esteem is highly tied to the state of their skin. Even after their acne has cleared, they are still at risk for PIH which leaves behind the dark marks that can also many times be just as much of a debilitating effect as the acne.
