WHY KINLÒ?

Designed for melanated skin

Despite growing up on sun-soaked tennis courts, SPF was never top-of-mind for Naomi Osaka because she, like many others, assumed her melanin-rich skin was immune to sun damage.

After learning the truth about the damage the sun inflicts on melanated skin, she set out on a mission to dispel old myths and educate others on proper sun protection.

KINLÒ starts conversations about health risks for melanated skin tones and provides clean products designed to protect and nourish.

By teaming up with dermatologists like Dr. Naana Boakye, Naomi’s mission for KINLÒ is to provide inclusive education on how to protect skin of all colors.

Designed for Black and Brown skin tones, KINLÒ products are formulated with natural ingredients like jojoba seed oil, hemp seed, and green tea to address common melanated skin concerns. From blue light and sun protection, to healing and nourishment, KINLÒ products help you build a skin ritual to Stay Golden the right way.
