Little Hands Hawaii story began with the birth of Michael and Rosalyn's first daughter in 2011. Rosalyn was standing in a health store reading all the “natural” sunscreen labels and wondering why she couldn’t pronounce half the ingredients. This began her research on sunscreen ingredients she soon realized they weren’t so natural after all; they were actually toxic! 

This started her journey towards developing a recipe.  As a family they shared their new knowledge and sunscreen with friends and family members. After time retail outlets began reaching out asking to carry their sunscreen! Throughout the years they received great feedback that allowed them to cater their ingredients and packaging to fit the communities needs and wants.

After more research surfaced about the effects of chemical sunscreens on coral reef, Michael knew he needed to be apart of the movement. He left his family owned painting business in 2016 and joined LHH. Michaels entire life growing up revolved around the ocean and surf, he has seen first hand the effects that chemicals have had on the reef.

Their sunscreen is made by Hawaiians and the values are echoed in every batch. The future of Hawaiʻi belongs to the little hands and it is up to us as a community to protect, preserve, and spread awareness.
