We grew up like most California groms in the '90s
covered in sunscreen and saltwater. Back then, no one thought twice about the chemicals in our sunblock, or what they were doing to our skin and the ocean. But now we know better.
All-day surf sessions and 90 minute sunscreens don't mix, so I made the switch to mineral sunscreen. It did the job, but left me looking like a ghost and clinging to my skin long after the session was over. No matter how hard I scrubbed, that white film wouldn’t budge.

That’s why we created Kook-Off...
to make washing off mineral sunscreen easy. No harsh scrubbing or zinc caught in our beards—just a simple way to clean up after a long day in the waves. It removes sunscreen fast while hydrating and soothing sun-worn skin.
We’re a small crew based in San Clemente, California, where the waves are firing and the sun never quits. We care about the ocean, the reefs, and making products that keep both your skin and the planet happy. No nasty chemicals, no animal testing, and 100% reef-safe. Just good, clean ingredients to help you enjoy the sun without the struggle.
Our Commitment
We make Kook-Off because we love the ocean, we care about our skin, and we believe in keeping things simple. No gimmicks, no junk—just natural, effective skincare that works as hard as you do.
