The journey

It all began with summers spent at the beach and sailing the waters around New Zealand. Like every other Kiwi kid, I was exposed to some of the harshest sun in the world. As a redhead with fair skin, I became a lifelong high consumer of sunscreen — and I’ve tried just about every brand under the sun.

Years later, a challenging fertility journey led me to explore a more natural way of living. I began paying closer attention to not only what I was putting into my body, but also what I was putting on it. At the time, I was working with children and started to realise I wasn’t alone. Many of us were seeking a healthier, more balanced lifestyle — not just for ourselves, but for our families too.

That’s when my mission began — to develop a high-performance sunscreen free from harsh chemicals. One that could protect, nourish, and help repair my skin. It also had to be gentle on the environment, especially our precious marine life. And of course, it needed to feel beautiful on the skin and come in packaging that’s made from recycled materials, fully recyclable, and looks as good as it feels.

After extensive international research and thoughtful local development, My Sunshine suncare is here — created with care, tested under the world’s toughest sun, and ready for you.

My Sunshine is made with love in New Zealand. Its tested only on humans and proudly meets one of the highest standards in the world - Australian/New Zealand sunscreen standard 2604:2021.

Thank you for your support. I hope you enjoy wearing My Sunshine as much as my family and I do.
