ABOUT

IN THE BEGINNING, THERE WAS THE BOLD
It all started in 1986 on a sunny Florida beach. Our founder jokingly declared his pale skin a “Death Tan” after a weekend in the sun. That name stuck, as did the realization that protecting your skin is non-negotiable.
Fast forward a few years, and Death Tan® became more than an idea. Today, it’s a brand with a mission: to keep people safe under the sun while embracing life’s adventures to the fullest.
