“Some products we create… and some products we can’t live without.
Surfaderm™ is one of those.” – Sam 💛
Our founder, Sam, has carried Surfaderm™ in his pocket long before Necessity became the brand it is today. From surf days on the Gold Coast to weekend adventures with the family, this little tube has been his go-to for every scrape, sting, sun patch and skin SOS moment life throws at him.
100% natural, multi-purpose and made for real Australian living — Surfaderm™ is the product Sam says he’d never leave home without. And honestly… same.
A message from Sam:
“Skincare should be simple, effective and ready for whatever your day brings. That’s why Surfaderm™ exists. It’s our family’s skin staple — and I’m proud it’s become yours too.”
Adventure. Sun. Sand. Scrapes. Life.
Surfaderm™ has your back. 🌿✨
