Ocean to Earth Collaboration
About BEACH-STREET Skincare
At BEACH-STREET Skincare, we are driven by our love for the ocean. Our mission is to create ocean-friendly skincare solutions that not only protect your skin but also help safeguard marine ecosystems. We proudly donate a portion of our sales to ocean conservation efforts, ensuring that every purchase helps protect our planet’s most precious resources. Our skincare is gentle on both the environment and your skin, allowing you to embrace sustainability with every use.
Our Love for The Ocean
The ocean is critical to life on Earth, covering over 70% of the planet and playing a key role in regulating the climate. Coral reefs, known as the “rainforests of the sea,” provide habitat for 25% of marine species, help protect coastlines, and are crucial to biodiversity. However, coral reefs are increasingly at risk due to environmental stressors like coral bleaching, which is caused by factors including warming seas and exposure to harmful chemicals.
Marine Decline & Chemical Sunscreens
Many traditional sunscreens contain chemicals such as parabens, PABA, phthalates, avobenzone, oxybenzone, and octinoxate, which contribute to coral bleaching by damaging coral DNA and inhibiting reproduction. BEACH-STREET is dedicated to protecting marine life by using only reef-safe ingredients in our sunscreens, ensuring that your sun protection doesn’t harm the ocean.
Sustainable, Every Step of the Way.
Our sustainability commitment is rooted in creating products that are safe for your skin and the planet. We prioritize a 100% BPA-free, recyclable aluminum packaging approach to avoid plastic use. Our packaging is also lightweight and minimizes waste to reduce our carbon footprint during transportation.
We’re proud to say that our entire process — from sourcing ingredients to our finished products — is aligned to reduce environmental impact. We ensure that our ingredients are ethically sourced and biodegradable. All BEACH-STREET products are free from harmful chemicals, and we maintain a zero-plastic policy, including microplastics. Reducing plastic pollution is a key part of our mission, as microplastics harm marine life and have long-term impacts on the environment.
Additionally, we are committed to responsible sourcing and collaborate only with suppliers who share our values of sustainability and ethical labor practices. By using natural, plant-based ingredients like algae, we create formulas that offer benefits to both skin health and marine ecosystems.
