In 2010, we started making sun care products to protect ourselves, our families and our friends from the damaging rays of the sun. Since then, we've grown and expanded into hair care and lip care products, and even launched Baby Bum, our rad plant-based baby skin care line. Along the way, we've been building an amazing, like-minded global community of friends that encourage us and help us be better. Today, we are looking for a few more talented and passionate people to join our crew - not for the money or the awesome location to live and work, but for the opportunity to change the world a little with us.
