FAQ
How does Smart Melanin™ Technology work for all skin tones?
Smart Melanin™ Technology is EADEM's approach to creating skincare that works effectively across all skin tones. We select ingredients that are compatible with every level of melanin—from the lightest to the deepest skin tones. For those with less melanin or sensitive skin, our precisely calibrated formulations provide gentle yet effective treatment without irritation, while those with more melanin benefit from ingredients that won't trigger hyperpigmentation. Each formula is tested by dermatologists across diverse skin types to ensure universal efficacy, balancing potency with gentleness. This comprehensive approach means our products address everyone's concerns—from redness in lighter skin to dark spots in melanin-rich skin—without compromise.
What does it mean for your products to be designed for skin of color?
Our formulation philosophy is built around Smart Melanin Beauty which means that we only use high-performance, melanin-compatible ingredients with proven efficacy on skin of color. This also means our products are also custom formulated and not “white label” from a manufacturer. It’s important to us that our product formulas are custom and specifically made for our needs and skin with melanin. Our active ingredients are chosen and used at its most efficient dosage to be gentle on skin, and our ingredients adhere to US, European Union and Canada regulations to make sure our formulas are kind to the skin. Learn more about our philosophy on our Beauty Burden page.
Are your products “clean” and/or do your products contain any parabens, sulfates, or other harmful ingredients?
No. At EADEM we believe that health is beauty. It’s an ugly truth that women of color spend more on beauty and are exposed to more chemically harmful products. We call this the beauty burden, and we’re out to correct it. This means our products adhere to US, European Union and Canada regulations to make sure our formulas are kind to the skin. Learn more about our philosophy on our Beauty Burden page.
