our story

sun protection with the goodness of the tropics to help your skin thrive

skin-loving sun care you can trust

At Hawaiian Tropic®, we make skin-loving, Hawaiian-inspired sun care that helps enhance the beauty in yourself and the world every day. We offer a variety of products to cover all your sun care needs.

beautifully safe sun protection

Our sun care products are made with ingredients that meet strict scientific standards to ensure they are safe to use in our formulas. Like you, we care what we put on our bodies, and strive to produce the most skin-loving products possible.

reducing our impact on the planet

We’ve always held a special place in our heart for beaches and the majesty that comes with them – including the coral reefs and marine life! While some resort areas have already banned the use of oxybenzone and octinoxate due to the potential damage they may have on the reefs, we pioneered the removal of these ingredients from our formulas to help protect our oceans.

sustainable sun care

When it comes to our packaging, we continuously look for ways to improve our efforts relative to how we can reduce materials, use more recycled/recyclable material, and help you in your recycling efforts. As we look ahead, we will continue to make decisions and innovate, keeping your needs and the potential impact our products can have on the environment top of mind.

commitment to cruelty-free

Part of our commitment to you is our commitment to the world around us and all its inhabitants, which is why we never test on animals, and refuse to sell our products in countries where animal testing is required. Hawaiian Tropic is a proud recipient of the PETA Cruelty-Free certification, which means we do not conduct or commission any animal tests on ingredients, formulations, or finished products.

our hawaiian values

Together, we seek the beauty and joy in all things: our skin, ourselves, our communities, our planet. That’s living life the Hawaiian way—join us.
