WHO WE ARE
HELLO!
WE'RE MAXINE & NICOLETTE. BUT YOU CAN CALL US MAX & NIKKI.
WE'RE THE ORIGINAL DURTHEADS.
WE'RE BOTH CALIFORNIA KIDS WHO LOVE TO BE HOOLIGANS OUTSIDE, IN ANY WAY WE CAN. NIKKI WOULD RATHER SURF THAN DO ANYTHING & MAX IS OBSESSED WITH HER BIKE. BUT EVERY TIME WE WERE ON OUR ADVENTURES, WE WANTED TO PLAY IN THE SUN SAFELY - WITHOUT SMEARING CHEMICALS ON OUR FACES THAT WOULD STING OUR EYES & MAKE OUR HANDS ALL SLIMY.
NOT TO MENTION, THE ACNE BREAKOUTS!
THEN WE LEARNED THAT 90% OF SUNSCREENS ON THE MARKET ARE EXTREMELY TOXIC TO CORAL REEFS. SERIOUSLY, ONE DROP CAN DAMAGE (THE EQUIVALENT OF) UP TO 6 OLYMPIC-SIZED SWIMMING POOLS WORTH OF CORAL REEF. EXCUSE OUR FRENCH, BUT HOLY SH*T.
WE WEREN'T DOWN TO COMPROMISE THE PLANET IN ORDER TO PROTECT OURSELVES.
SO WE STARTED ON OUR MISSION, TO MAKE A BETTER SUNSCREEN.
SO DO SOMETHING!
WITH LOTS OF HELP FROM MAX'S DAD, A Ph.D. CHEMIST/SURFER FROM HAWAII & TONS OF INPUT FROM LIKEMINDED FRIENDS LIKE YOU, WE FINALLY PERFECTED THE NON-NANO ZINC OXIDE ONLY SUNSCREEN THAT WE'RE SUPER PROUD TO CALL SURFDURT NOW. SURFDURT CONTAINS THE SAFEST POSSIBLE ACTIVE INGREDIENT MIXED WITH TONS OF ANTIOXIDANTS & HIGH-QUALITY, NATURAL INGREDIENTS THAT ARE AMAZING FOR YOUR SKIN. THE RESULT - A STRAIGHT UP, BETTER SUNSCREEN. FOR YOU, YOUR SKIN & OUR OCEANS :)
