OUR FOUNDER

BELINDA EVELYN

Belinda founded Winki Zinc in 2018 after learning about the damage sunscreen and skin care products were doing to our marine environment.

She is a keen surfer and outdoor adventurer, having spent most of her 20's under the Australian sun, and preferring no protection to chemical protection. After noticing the early signs of premature ageing caused by the sun, she endeavoured to design a healthier option that made wearing SPF fun.

She has a background in pharmaceutical manufacturing, as well as environmental education. These two skills worked in harmony to help her realise the dream of Winki Zinc.
