Brand Story

Tom and Sacha, marine scientist and SCUBA divers who fell in love on the Ningaloo Reef, saw firsthand how traditional sunscreens affect both skin and the ocean. Inspired to make a difference, they began crafting Australia's first really reef-safe, vegan sunscreens in sustainable packaging.

Since then, SunButter Skincare has grown with a focus on eco-conscious practices — from responsible ingredient sourcing and reusable packaging to supporting marine and environmental initiatives. They partner with organisations like Surfrider Foundation and Sea Shepherd, helping protect our oceans while delivering effective sun protection for people of all ages.

Every product reflects Tom and Sacha’s passion for both people and planet, blending science, sustainability, and care in every tin & tube!
