What is the difference between the melanin dietary supplement and the sun dietary supplement?

Melanin dietary supplement

Skin and hair
Formula concentrated in melanin derived from black sheep wool
Prepares the skin for sun exposure, promotes tanning and helps slow the appearance of grey hair

Sun dietary supplement

Skin
Vegan formula concentrated in plant-derived carotenoids
Prepares the skin for sun exposure and promotes tanning

This Melanin food supplement contains the patented ingredient Melaline® with proven effectiveness:

Accelerates and intensifies tanning: after 10 days of treatment and within 2 hours of exposure to UVA rays, the skin's production of melanin is increased, stimulating the skin's natural pigmentation process.
Promotes a long-lasting tan by stimulating delayed pigmentation: the melanin newly synthesised by the skin migrates towards the superficial layers of the epidermis.
After 30 days of treatment and 3 exposures to UVA/UVB rays spaced 3 days apart, the tan is more intense and more persistent.
Prolongs tanning, helps maintain a beautiful glow.
Anti-oxidant effect proven by an ORAC test, helps fight free radicals.
Helps reinforce the skin's natural protection against damage caused by exposure to the sun.
After 1 month's treatment, testers found their skin more hydrated and luminous.

This Melanin food supplement contains the patented ingredient Melatine®, which has been proven effective for hair:

Stimulates melanogenesis and promotes natural hair pigmentation: after 2 months of use, a progressive re-pigmentation of emerging white hair is observed, and this effect intensifies when the course of treatment is extended up to 4 months.
Fights premature hairwhitening, a preventive solution against the appearance of grey hair.
Gradually helps restore hair's natural colour.
Anti-oxidant effect proven by an ORAC test, helps combat the oxidative stress that promotes premature ageing.
Provides nutrients and minerals essential for strong, healthy hair.

Melanins are a family of molecules naturally present in humans and animals and responsible, depending on their type and concentration, for the colouring of the skin in humans, the feathers of birds and the fur of mammals, etc.

In the animal kingdom, this pigmentation plays a role in photoprotection, camouflage and thermoregulation. In humans, different types of melanin are used to define the colour of the eyes, hair and skin, and their main role is to protect against the sun's UV rays. In the body, melanin is naturally produced in melanocytes from tyrosine, and its synthesis is induced by exposure to the sun. It is eumelanin, a dark brown melanin, that is responsible for tanning. The individual proportions of eumelanin (brown) and pheomelanin (red) define the natural colour of our hair.

As we age, melanin production in the hair follicles slows down, leading to the appearance of white hair.

Frequently Asked Questions

As we age, melanin production in the hair follicles slows down, leading to the appearance of white hair.

No, taking the Melanin food supplement stimulates the skin's natural melanin synthesis and accelerates tanning, which activates the natural photoprotection process, but it does not replace the use of appropriate sun protection.

Yes, the Melanin food supplement can be taken over the long term, particularly if the desired effect is to improve hair pigmentation. For a long-term repigmentation effect on the hair, it is recommended to use this dietary supplement as a course of treatment lasting at least 4 months, repeated regularly to maintain the effect. For a tanning action, it is advisable to start taking this food supplement before sun exposure to make the skin for the sun. After exposure to the sun, you can continue to take the Melanin food supplement to prolong your tan.

Taking a Melanin food supplement activates the natural process of melanin synthesis by our skin during exposure to the sun, enabling a tan to appear more quickly from the start of sun exposure. The tan will be quicker, more intense and longer-lasting. But we don't have any tests to prove that an effect will be visible without the sun.

Not much effect on my hair's pigmentation yet, but I'm persevering. Great for skin exposed to the sun in the south.

Not much time has passed, but I still have the impression that this product slows down the appearance of my white hair between colorings.
