Relevant Skin is on a mission to love your skin out loud, with science-led ingredients that make sure everyone is seen.  If you haven’t heard of the multitasking wonder, One & Done Everyday Cream, we are here to give all the tea! 

Beauty entrepreneur, Founder of Relevant: Your Skin Seen and Co-founder of thirteen lune, Nyakio Grieco, recently chatted with us to talk all about skin care rooted in culture and inclusivity.

On the inspiration behind Relevant Skin and what sets them apart from other skin care brands:

“Co-founding thirteen lune and being a previous beauty brand founder helped me identify niches in the market based on need for all skin tone and types. My grandmother, who was a Kenyan coffee farmer and my grandfather, who was a medicine man, both taught me the wonders of the Earth, its treasures and how this benefits our health, well-being, and beauty.”


Relevant is high-performing, responsible goodness that leads with science, heart, and a heaping dose of good vibes.

The all-in-one product that’s worth the hype: 

“The first product we launched is the One & Done Everyday Cream with SPF 40. One & Done is a  4-in-1 lightweight treatment that replaces daily sunscreen, moisturizer, serum, and primer. The cosmetically elegant formula combines zinc and titanium dioxide to provide broad spectrum mineral sun protection against UVA/UVB rays. One & Done Everyday Cream w/SPF 40 works on all skin tones—from the lightest to the darkest—without leaving a white cast.


This supercharged day cream features Relevant’s R-Rev Complex, which protects and refines skin with a potent blend of antioxidant-rich superfruits and actives—Plum Oil, Niacinamide, Kigelia Extract, Buriti Oil, Sea Buckthorn, and Green Tea.


We’ve seen such a great response to this first product already. It just makes me even more excited for everyone to see what else we have to offer.”
