About Us

My Story, Our Mission

Hi, I'm Melissa, the founder of Ring of Color, and like many of you, I'm an introvert. My journey began in the Dominican Republic, where I was raised before coming to the U.S. to pursue my education. From a young age, my relationship with makeup was complex; I used it to cover my small beauty mark on my face, convinced it was something to hide. Yet, over time, that very act of covering evolved into a profound discovery of the power of color – not to conceal, but to celebrate.

Through this journey, I learned to truly love myself, embracing my unique features and discovering the strength in my quiet confidence as an introvert. As a therapist and a passionate advocate for mental health, I understood deeply how external pressures can impact our inner world. This fueled my entrepreneurial spirit: I wanted to create a brand that empowers others like me, fellow introverts, to express their authentic selves without overwhelming, to find their voice in subtle yet impactful ways.

Our Philosophy

Ring of Color was born from this understanding. We're dedicated to creating products that enhance your natural beauty with ease and comfort, never overwhelming. We're committed to cruelty-free formulas, paraben-free, because beauty should always be kind. We believe in building a community where every individual feels seen, valued, and empowered to express their authentic self.

In a world that often celebrates the loud, we stand for the power of quiet
confidence. Introverts are often the underdogs, but never underestimate the profound strength that comes from deep thought, genuine connection, and embracing who you truly are. We're here to help you shine, beautifully and authentically.
