“As a dermatologist, melanin-rich skin poses unique challenges as compared to Caucasian/Oriental skin.

So you HAVE TO treat & formulate solutions differently.”

Dr. Chytra Anand,

Celebrity dermatologist, Founder & Chief Formulator of SkinQ

Indians have melanin-rich skin. The pigment Melanin gives us our amazing shade of brown, from the lightest to the darkest. Most skincare brands are not formulated to address the unique needs of our skin as they blindly copy European & off-late Korean formulations. SkinQ's functional line of skincare, made by Skin of Colour Expert Dr Chytra Anand, is crafted specifically for melanated skin to give results that are clinically proven. 

Created with Science, tested on melanin-Rich skin. SkinQ's unique 7 step approach to Melanated Skincare -
