New FDA guideline for Sunscreen Products


San Diego, Ca action sport based Headhunter Suncare and Skincare products are pleased to announce that the FDA is taking steps to improve labeling standards for all sunscreen products. Hopefully the new information will help educate the general consumer to make a more educated decision that suits their Suncare needs.

The new proposed rules will have only minor effects on Headhunter products. Most of these changes are label listings and label format. As for our formulas you can be assured that we will continue to produce our heavy duty formulas the same way we always have.

Since 1989 Headhunter has always been extremely diligent in making sure we are compliant with all rules and regulations  set forth by the FDA. Because of this Headhunter sees the the new rules as a change for the better that consumers will benefit from.

Headhunter will continue to keep board sport athletes covered in all conditions and climates.

Go Ride!

Testimonials


THESE ARE ACTUAL PEOPLE WHO USE OUR PRODUCTS

"As an on-site doctor for the Association of Surfing Professionals (ASP) and a surfer myself, I see the damage that sun exposure can do on a regular basis. What I look for personally and what I recommend to those in my care is a persistent complete UVA/UVB sunscreen that combines the stopping power of a physical filter with the coverage of a chemical filter. The Headhunter formulation is the best I've found."

-Dr. Dave Oates, Certified E.R. Doctor
 

"I'm on the road chasing swell all the time. Not only does a sunscreen have to protect me from getting fried, but it's gotta be compact and easy to use. What I'm looking for is a sunscreen that not only stays on in the water but that's also compact and easy to use. There's nothing like Headhunter Face Stick. It's packaged like a deodorant stick, fits right in my boardshorts pocket, and the stuff doesn't come off in the water. Epic."

-Shayne McIntyre, Traveling Professional Surfer
 

"I have been recommending Headhunter sunscreen to my patients for over ten years. What I like about Headhunter is that it is very water resistant and works great for all water sports, plus it does not cause acne, nor does it sting your eyes. In fact, we have started selling Headhunter directly to our patients. I now recommend Headhunter sunscreen to all my patients who surf, swim, or otherwise enjoy water activities."

-Mary M. Dobry M.D., La Jolla Dermatology
 

"The Headhunter sunscreens are great. They provide maximum protection, stay on in the lineup, and this is important too; they don't cause break-outs. It's hard to find a suncare product that shades as well and doesn't cause break-outs. That's why I keep a bottle of Headhunter in my boardbag."

-Jen Smith, Professional Longboarder
 

"I spend a lot of time on the beach and sun damage is my biggest occupational hazard, so I've become somewhat of a sunscreen specialist. I look for something that's going to stay on in and out of the water, a sunscreen that I don't have to keep reapplying every ten minutes. Headhunter Original Formula SPF 30+ is the best sunscreen I've ever used."

-John Maher, City of San Diego Lifeguard
 

"I really like Headhunter Surfscreen because it stays on in the water. Most products claim to be waterproof, but they're not! I also like the fact that it does not make my skin break out. With a job teaching surfing in the sun all day long, I really need to protect my skin and keep it looking good. Headhunter does the job."

-Isabelle 'Izzy' Tihanyi, CEO, Surf Diva, Inc.
 

"Guests looked to me for advice on surf conditions, what board to ride, the best tides, and where to sit in the line-up. However, one of the biggest questions was about sunscreen, and what type of sunscreen to use, and that was an easy answer: 'Headhunter.' Headhunter is the only brand that was actually made for the harsh conditions and all day sun we were exposed to everyday. Without Headhunter it would have been unbearable. Today, Headhunter sunscreen is provided to all guests of Tavarua Island free of charge to ensure they have a safe and sunburn-free trip."

-Steven Baker, Former Senior Boatman, Tavarua Island, Fiji
