Skincare Education for Black Women

Evidence-based skincare education for melanin-rich skin, without the overwhelm.

If you’ve ever felt confused by conflicting skincare advice, overwhelmed by product launches, or unsure which recommendations actually apply to Black skin, you’re not alone.

This hub exists to give you clear, trustworthy skincare education designed specifically for Black women, especially those navigating aging skin, sensitivity, eczema, and real life.

No hype. No trends for the sake of trends. Just grounded guidance that helps you understand your skin, protect your skin barrier, and make confident decisions about what you use.

Why Skincare Education for Black Women Is Different

Most skincare advice wasn’t created with melanin-rich skin in mind.

Black women often have skin that is:

  • More prone to hyperpigmentation
  • Sensitive to over-exfoliation and harsh actives
  • Underrepresented in clinical studies and marketing
  • Expected to do more without proper context or education

On top of that, many of us are balancing:

  • Busy lives
  • Hormonal shifts
  • Chronic stress
  • Seasonal changes
  • Aging skin, especially after 40, without wanting to anti-age ourselves into exhaustion

As we move into our 40s and beyond, our skin’s needs change. Cell turnover slows, barrier repair becomes more important, and tolerance for aggressive routines often decreases. What worked in our 20s and 30s may no longer serve us.



"This hub is here to bridge that gap by explaining how skincare actually works for us and how to build routines that support healthy, resilient skin over time."
