Altruist Sunscreen

Altruist Sunscreen was founded by British consultant dermatologist Dr. Andrew Birnie and Dutch economist David Westerbeek. The brand was established with a clear mission to provide high-quality sun protection at affordable prices, aiming to reduce the incidence of skin cancer globally. By keeping marketing costs low and focusing on medical-grade formulations, the brand has become a favorite among dermatologists and consumers alike.

While the brand has its roots in the United Kingdom and the Netherlands, its manufacturing is primarily based in Germany to ensure high European pharmaceutical and cosmetic standards. The products are formulated with broad-spectrum photostable UV filters, including Tinosorb S. The brand operates with a social mission, donating a portion of its proceeds to charities supporting people with albinism in Africa.
