Introducing Damastíque

On September 8, 2025, Damastíque officially launched, driven by a mission to transform sun care for women whose skin is particularly susceptible to hormonal changes and pigmentation issues. Founded by Aissa Duffy, this innovative brand combines 20% zinc oxide mineral protection with the unique Antioxid Melanocyte Calm™ complex. This biotechnology-driven blend is designed to provide thoughtful, effective skincare solutions tailored to pigmentation-prone, sensitive, and hormonally changing skin.

A Personal Journey

Aissa’s passion for skincare stems from her own struggles with melasma, a condition she faced throughout her life. Growing up in South Texas, she saw the effects of sun exposure on the skin of the women in her family, particularly her abuela, tias, and mother, who worked under the sun as migrant workers. Through her experiences, Aissa recognized the beauty industry's shortcomings—filled with quick fixes and unknowns—and committed to transparency in her brand’s processes. She aims to empower women with safe, effective products that educate on skin protection.

The Brand Philosophy

Damastíque’s philosophy revolves around the belief that sun care should be safe for every woman, or ‘Dama’. The brand seeks to celebrate diverse skin tones while encouraging women to feel confident and beautiful in their own skin. With a respect for tradition, Damastíque harnesses sun-resilient botanicals from Latin America, merging them with cutting-edge science to create solutions for today's skincare concerns.

The Flagship Product: SPF Active Serum

The launch lineup is headlined by Damastíque's SPF Active Serum, priced at $65 for 30 ml and $35 for 10 ml. This serum hybrid acts as both a lightweight mineral sunscreen and a skincare treatment, making it ideal for women dealing with hormonal changes, hyperpigmentation, and sensitive skin issues. It is dermatologist tested, fragrance-free, and avoids harmful ingredients like hydroquinone and parabens, making it an excellent choice for daily use.

Commitment to Sustainability

Beyond skincare efficacy, Damastíque is dedicated to ethical practices and sustainability. The ingredients are sourced from small, women-led farms in Latin America, ensuring fair trade and benefits for local communities, underlining the brand's commitment to social responsibility.
