In this article, we reveal the origins of melanin as well as our valuable micronutrition expert advice.
The origin of melanin
Melanin is produced by melanocytes, cells located in the hair follicles of the epidermis.
Its synthesis is controlled by the amino acid tyrosine. This amino acid is one of the pigments The type of melanin varies according to our origin and genes (European, Asian...).
Un déficit en mélanine peut provoquer différents troubles pigmentaires comme le vitiligoa disease that promotes the appearance of white patches, referred to as skin depigmentation, but alsoalbinism, as being albino is due to the absence of melanin on the skin's surface.
Melanin plays a protective role against sunlight. skin damage like UV rays when exposed to the sun, it protects against ultraviolet rays.
Il existe deux types de rayons du soleil : UVB et UVA. Ces derniers favorisent l’apparition de pigment spots sur les cellules de la peau et peuvent aller jusqu’à provoquer de graves problèmes dermatologiques comme un cancer de la peau, ce qui nécessitera forcément l’intervention d’un dermatologue.
It is therefore essential to protect yourself to prevent the visible signs of skin aging, such as wrinkles and age spots.
Skin pigmentation can be influenced by genetic factors such as age, hormones, climate, season or excessive sun exposure. However, melanin levels tend to be depleted over time and by aggression.
When a lack of melanin is observed, the graying and whitening of hair generally occurs. This is known as canitis, a process of hair depigmentation. Hair becomes dull, lacklustre, grey or white. It then becomes necessary to add melanin in high doses to darken hair and promote the repigmentation of white and gray hair.
This melanin synthesis can be increased topically with suitable skin care products, but for a less superficial action, it can be provided internally with melanin-based supplements.
Our Melanin Absolute is enriched with keratin hydrolysate naturally pigmented with melanin, the pigment responsible for skin and hair color, and used to slow and conceal the appearance of gray hair on your scalp and to color the skin .
This formula is suitable for all ages. 87% of subjects are satisfied after 4 months of treatment.
The benefits of melanin
It is important to provide melanin supplements for improve the skin's appearanceIt also helps to fight against the premature aging of melanocytes and to delay the appearance of white hair. Indeed, melanin is responsible for the skin pigment, hair and tanning. It is for these reasons that it is necessary to supplement with natural and quality supplements to obtain a readily synthesized melanin by the body.
La mélanine est indispensable à l’organisme puisqu’elle protège des effets néfastes du soleil, lui-même responsable de troubles divers, et elle est également responsable du bronzage. Malheureusement, nous ne sommes pas tous égaux face au soleil et selon le skin type, il est plus difficile d’optimiser son bronzage. Une peau claire ou une peau blanche voire une peau très blanche par exemple a plus de difficultés pour bronzer qu'une peau foncée ou qu’une peau noire. C’est normal, la composition de la mélanine est différente, et les rayons du soleil sont moins absorbés. Les personnes noir de peau auront moins de coups de soleil qu’une personne blanche de peau.
En se supplémentant, vous permettrez ainsi à votre synthèse d’être augmentée mais surtout de la rendre plus forte et permettre d’assimiler l’énergie des rayons UV pour la transformer en tanning et s'intensifier au fur et à mesure des expositions solaires.
You can consume beta-carotenes such as carrots, which belong to the carotenoid family and are ideal for boosting your tan. However, supplementing doesn't mean you shouldn't protect yourself from ultraviolet radiation, sunburn and sun spots with topical cosmetics.
To avoid the sunburn of the summer, so always favour a sunscreen like a suntan lotion SPF50 to avoid burns under the sun's rays and long-term damage to your skin cells.
Warning: the use of self-tanner does not protect the skin and does not act like melanin! It only colors the skin superficially and, if used excessively, can lead to a blotchy complexion.
Dosage, deficiencies
Clean, cruelty free, gluten free and made in France, all our formulas are composed ofnatural active ingredients extracted without chemical processes.
To combat the deficiencies that cause gray hair, we recommend eating foods rich in vitamins B12, B6 and B8, as well as supplementing with melanin product.
Nowadays, food is no longer as rich and the nutrients we need every day are no longer provided in sufficient quantities.
Our Melanin Absolute is rich in vitamin B8, better known as biotin, to strengthen hair fiber, reduce hair loss and protect against free radicals and stress-related oxidation.
Our laboratory has developed an innovative complex enriched with hydrolysate of keratin (a constituent molecule of the hair fiber) naturally pigmented by melanin. This formula significantly darkens hair color, and has been clinically proven effective. It is therefore worth taking our Melanin Absolute for 4 to 6 months to activate cellular memory and provide the hair bulb with the nutrients it needs.
To prevent the appearance of the first gray hairs and reduce pigmentation disorders (pigmented skin, dotted with dark spots or brown spots), and thus regain beautiful hair and a healthy glow, it's important to limit nicotine consumption, provide the body with the nutrients it needs, and avoid external aggressions (balayage, repeated coloring, bleaching). Choose plant-based colorants and protect your hair from exposure to the sun and radiation.
To remove pigmentation spots in winter, we recommend applying moisturizing creams and deeply nourishing your skin with collagen. Spot treatment is possible and recommended in winter, as there is less exposure to the sun's rays than in summer. In summer, however, skin protection is essential. Use sunscreen with SPF 50, a powerful sunblock that is the ideal ally for protecting the dermis .
Don't forget to moisturize and nourish your skin with the right cosmetics. You need to use creams and cosmetics adapted to your skin type: combination, oily, sensitive, reactive, dark skin, black skin, white skin, and according to the types of spots on your skin: small spots, freckles, brown spots, light spots, moles...
