DISCOVER BONDI SANDS
Bondi Sands is an Australian brand that’s all about sun, sea and sand, and the lifestyle that comes with it! It was founded in 2012 by Melbourne-based Blair James (who used to run tanning bed salons) and his pal Shaun Wilson in response to a new law that banned sunbeds.
They shifted the salons’ focus to spray tans, and instead of using imported products, they decided to create their own salon solution. The product quickly went from being an in-house tanning spray to an affordable lotion that anyone could buy - hello Bondi Sands!
Since then, the brand has branched out and now offers a wide range of self tanners and suncare, plus skincare and cosmetics.
THE AUSTRALIAN LIFESTYLE, BOTTLED
Bondi Sands captures the iconic Australian lifestyle and brings it to you, every day (for much cheaper than the cost of a flight ticket!). And the carefully crafted formulas give you a glow that looks like it came straight from the Aussie sun itself - not from a bottle!
VEGAN AND CRUELTY FREE
Bondi Sands is a PETA-approved brand, which means that neither they nor their suppliers conduct or commission any testing on animals. Almost all of their products (with the exception of their suncare products, which contain naturally derived beeswax) are vegan friendly, and they’re working closely to go 100% vegan soon!
SUSTAINABILITY
Associating itself with Australia’s most iconic beach means that the brand recognises its environmental responsibility. Bondi Sands Suncare is formulated to be Reef Friendly, meaning it’s free from oxybenzone and octinoxate (which are believed to cause coral bleaching), and they pledge to have fully recyclable packaging by 2025.
