Our Product Range
Glo Melanin offers a diverse selection of skincare and vitamin products tailored for all skin types and tones. We specialize in face, body, and feminine care, with standout products such as our Turmeric Soap and Scrub, which have garnered viral attention on TikTok. These popular items reflect our commitment to excellence and our understanding of the unique needs of melanin-rich skin.
Effective Solutions for Common Skin Issues
At Glo Melanin, we recognize the specific challenges faced by those with melanin-rich skin, particularly when it comes to hyperpigmentation. Our products feature a range of active ingredients known for their efficacy in addressing these issues:
- Alpha Arbutin: Helps lighten dark spots and even out skin tone.
- Kojic Acid: Brightens the skin and reduces melanin production.
- Tranexamic Acid: Targets dark spots and hyperpigmentation.
- Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): Enhances skin texture, reduces inflammation, and brightens the complexion.
- Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid): Brightens skin while protecting against UV damage.
- Licorice Root Extract: Brightens and soothes the skin.
- Curcuma Longa (Turmeric) Root Extract: Offers anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits to help brighten the skin.
Formulated for Darker Skin Tones
Our products are crafted to be both safe and effective for darker skin tones. We aim to address hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone inclusively, ensuring that our formulations cater to a broad range of skin tones.
Timeline for Seeing Results
- Short-Term (4-6 Weeks): Initial improvements in skin brightness and evenness may be noticeable due to the exfoliating and brightening effects of ingredients like Vitamin C and Niacinamide.
- Medium-Term (6 Months to a Year): Significant reductions in hyperpigmentation, particularly for older scars, typically require 6 months to a year, allowing for deeper skin cell turnover and the cumulative effects of ingredients such as Alpha Arbutin, Kojic Acid, and Tranexamic Acid.
Gentle and Compatible with Sensitive Skin
Glo Melanin’s products are formulated with gentle ingredients like Aloe Extract and Chamomile Oil, making them suitable for sensitive skin. However, we advise performing a patch test before using new products and avoiding high concentrations of acids or strong actives if you have known sensitivities. For personalized advice, consulting with a dermatologist is recommended.
Using Our Products with Other Treatments
Our products can generally be used in conjunction with other treatments like chemical peels or laser therapy. However, it’s essential to consult with a dermatologist to ensure compatibility and to introduce new products gradually. Additionally, diligent sun protection is crucial to prevent further pigmentation issues.
Testimonials from Satisfied Users
Here’s what some of our customers have to say about their experiences with Glo Melanin:
- Destiny N.: “Only been using it for 2 weeks and my dark spots are already fading away!!!!”
- Laila H.: “My yoni & thighs have lightened in less than 2 weeks! I’m amazed … I greatly appreciate it.”

Daily Use and Sun Protection
Our products are designed for daily use, but it’s important to adhere to individual product guidelines. Currently, our line does not include sun protection, so we recommend incorporating a broad-spectrum sunscreen into your daily routine to safeguard your skin and prevent further pigmentation issues.
