A balm for the daughters who inherited both salt and sunlight. A refusal to be erased, again.
You Were Never the Flaw.
I built this altar for us, not to worship beauty, but to remember what it was before the world tried to correct it.
This is where your scars aren’t edited. Where your glow doesn’t have to earn approval. Where melanin is not a mystery to decode, but a memory returning.
Where melanin is not lightened, stripped, or disguised, but honored as a language, a legacy, and a shield,
We were queens and kings, princes and princesses, not beginnings marked by chains. Our beginning was never slavery. Remember that.
Beautélanin™
is not a skincare brand. It’s a ritual of self-return. An echo from the islands.
Every oil, every mask, every moment of touch is a prayer that begins with: “I deserve softness without apology.” And you do. You always did.

The Foundation Beneath Every Jar. *
Before we pour anything into a jar, we stand on this:
Our Mission
Beautélanin™ Skincare exists to protect, restore and celebrate the deepest shades of melanin-rich skin through services, education and product formulation guided by science, heritage, and cultural reverence.
We serve clients, particularly those of Caribbean, African and Afro-Latinx descent who have been misrepresented or ignored by Eurocentric beauty standards. Our work replaces color correction with barrier repair, cellular resilience and skin literary. providing spaces where dark-skinned individuals are not studied as anomalies, but embraced as the blueprint.
Through melanin-safe facials, diagnostic consultations, and barrier repair rituals powered by our proprietary MélanoMatrix-D™ and philosophy NoirScience™, we heal what the industry erased.
Our mission is to transform skincare into remembrance, repair, and ritual; restoring integrity, science, and reverence to the care of melanin-rich skin across generations.
Our Vision
Beautélanin™ Skincare envisions global beauty industry where dark skin is celebrated, not corrected; where the deepest shades of melanin, especially those rooted in the Caribbean and African diaspora, are honored as the foundation of beauty, not its afterthought.
Our vision is to redefine the professional standard of skincare so that every spa, classroom, and laboratory recognizes melanin-rich skin in its darkest tones as intelligent, worthy, and sacred.
Beautélanin™ will lead the shift toward melanin-centered skin health, setting the highest standard of safety, efficacy and cultural respect. We see treatment rooms, product lines, and educational systems that honor ancestry, identity, and resilience; where every client of color, especially those whose tones have been pathologized, feel seen, safe, and restored.
Our Values
Beautélanin offers high-performance, melanin-centered skincare backed by a proprietary science system (NoirActive™) and infused with Caribbean heritage. Unlike mainstream brands that tokenize melanin or chase trends, we deliver formulations with soul, science with purpose, and skincare rooted in repair, not erasure.
1. Science Without Erasure
We design every formula and protocol using melanin-safe research and testing, powered by our proprietary systems MélanoMatrix-D™ and NoirScience™.
2. Heritage in Every Drop
Our work is infused with Caribbean lineage, the remedies, rituals, and wisdom passed down through hands that cared for skin long before the word “spa” existed.
3. Repair Over Rebrand
We don’t chase trends or “rebrand” whitening formulas as “brightening.” We heal, restore, and protect without compromise.
4. Truth Over Tokenism
We reject the performative diversity of mainstream skincare. We are built for us, by us, with measurable results and cultural respect at the core.
5. Beauty as Legacy
We believe skin care is an act of ancestral preservation, a ritual that safeguards not only the face we wear today, but the future we hand down.

Opening, Fall 2026

Where rest is reparative.

What the skin Remembers
This isn’t just what they felt. It’s what the skin knew.
These aren’t product reviews. These are skin testimonies. Reclamations rooted in hibiscus. Defended by Haitian Castor Oil. Protected by Melanin. And delivered with dignity.
Haitian Black Castor Oil
“My skin didn’t just glow, it exhaled. For the first time, I wasn’t apologizing for being seen".”
Raw Haitian Honey
“The healing didn’t start on the surface. This honey remembered the scars no else saw. And it chose tenderness
Hibiscus Petal Extract
“The called it anti-aging. But this isn’t about erasing time. It’s about honoring every line that carried me here.
Our sacred ingredients do not fight melanin. They honor it. They return it to memory.
It was never manufactured. It wasn’t taught by textbooks or validated by white coats.
This glow is ancestral— carried through salt air, carved into bone, passed down in silence when words were stripped away.
You don’t have to earn it. You don’t have to chase it. You only have to remember: it was always yours. Beautélanin isn’t skincare. It’s the return of ancestral pride.
This Glow Was Inherited.

THE BEAUTÉLANIN LIBRARY
Words that Remember. Essays that Refuse. Books that Begin Again.
At Beautélanin, we don’t just formulate for the skin;
we write for the soul.

Because we were never meant to be footnotes in someone else’s textbook.
Our library is an offering:
To Black estheticians.
To melanated skin.
To memory itself.
The Skin They Forgot to Teach™
The Skin They Forgot to Teach™
By Judith Pluviose, Esq. | Melanin-Centered Skin Specialist | Certified Organic Skincare Formulator | Esthetician-In-Training
As an esthetician student, I sat in class flipping through whitewashed pages,
learning protocols written for skin that never looked like mine.
This book is not a textbook.
It’s a reclamation. A remembering.
A mirror for melanin-rich skin that was never the flaw.
Part science. Part storytelling. All truth.
From industry bias to ingredient integrity, this book exposes what the esthetics world ignored, and what melanated skin has always known.
“I didn’t write this book because I wanted to. I wrote it because I had to.” “In esthetics school, I wasn’t just unseen. I was erased. So I wrote the pages they refused to print.”
This isn’t another skin-deep beauty book.
It’s a reclamation.
Written by a Black woman who dared to question the syllabus;
who called out the holy bible of beauty schools (yes, Milady’s);
The Skin They Forgot to Teach exposes how esthetic education fails Black skin,
then rebuilds it from the root.
Through essays, poetic refusals, and unapologetic truth,
this book decolonizes skincare ; one layer at a time.
For students. For estheticians. For those who were never the default.
For the skin they never taught you to touch without apology.
Inside You'll Find:
The myth of “universal” skin types
The trauma of tyrosinase obsession
The erasure of ancestral science
The beauty of melanin unburdened
