Little Urchin

Little Urchin started one day when a father caught his daughter on sunscreen that smelled of chemicals after going to daycare. Knowing just enough about the potentially harmful effects of certain chemicals in many sunscreens to know that he didn't want them to use them, the father embarked on a six-month journey using only rich essential oils and nature's most powerful skin-conditioning ingredients. After developing the formula as far as possible, he enlisted the help of one of Australia's leading formulators to perfect the product and ensure its integrity.

Little Urchin was born of that loving effort, but that's not the end of our little story. Little Urchin is also a story inspired by nature. Like humans, sea urchins are sensitive to light and chemicals. In fact, these smart guys evolved to create their own natural sunscreen to protect their young from the harsh rays of the sun. These amazing critters are full of delicious and surprising examples of Mother Nature at her best. I bet you didn't know that these spindly creatures are known to live for over 100 years without showing biological signs of aging.

Mother Nature doesn't miss much - that's why she's central to everything we do.
