We love to spend a lot of time in the sun at the beach, in the mountains and everywhere in between but we noticed there's a downside to all the time hanging out outside. Road trips to the beach ended in sunburns, dark spots and chapped lips. Snowboarding gave us inflamed redness on our nose and cheeks for weeks. Cycling 16 miles multiple times a week felt amazing but noticing more creases and fine lines around our eyes wasn't as cool. Regular moisturizers and serums were ok at helping our skin recover after we were done being active outside but they were useless when we were actually outside. We thought: why not stop the damage in the first place?

We wanted something that would stay on even after falling off the paddle board, that would deeply moisturize all day, and that could minimize the steps in our routine by being anti-aging and tackling our usual skin issues. We started Rhino Mud Skincare to create such the perfect, multi-action skincare.

While we were researching ingredients and products, we were stunned to find out how many harsh chemicals were in your average moisturizer and how a lot of the main ingredients have little skin benefit at all. We decided to go the plant-based ingredient route because it was the safest but also the most effective.
