Melanin-Rich Skin Course

Building Inclusive Beauty Education on Thinkific

The client possessed extensive, hands-on knowledge in treating melanin-rich skin but required expert assistance to structure this expertise into a high-quality, professional online program. The primary challenge was to create a course that was not only scientifically accurate and professionally credible but also deeply rooted in cultural understanding and the lived experience of melanin-rich skin care. The final product needed to be easily navigable and accessible for students to implement in real-world practice.

The Project Scope

The Imagine8 team was engaged to build a fully online, self-paced course hosted on the Thinkific platform.

Lesson scripting and content refinement to ensure clarity and depth

Design of downloadable tools and supplementary resources
Complete Thinkific platform setup and configuration

Our Approach: Content with Depth & Respect

Imagine8's approach was centered on delivering content that was empowering, inclusive, and professional.

Content and Cultural Integrity

We worked closely with the client to honor the lived experience of melanin-rich skin care while rigorously grounding each lesson in dermatological science and practical application. This collaborative process ensured the tone was empowering, inclusive, and maintained professional clinical standards.

Curriculum Design & Structure

The course was meticulously mapped out to provide a clear, progressive flow, starting from fundamental skin biology and advancing to complex treatment protocols.

Progressive Modules: Designed modules to build knowledge and skill incrementally
Interactive Elements: Included quizzes, downloadable guides, and step-by-step treatment breakdowns
Diverse Visuals: Incorporated visuals and case studies that reflected diverse skin tones and real client scenarios

Thinkific Platform Build

We configured the full backend of the course on Thinkific to ensure a seamless and branded learning experience.

The Takeaway

Representation is a critical factor in education, especially within the beauty industry. At Imagine8, we believe our role extends beyond simply building courses; we create learning experiences that elevate voices, honor expertise, and drive real transformation.
