The dermatologist behind it
“Sunscreens should be easy to apply, leave no residue and feel like a moisturising cream. They also need to be affordable, so they can be applied generously.”
Altruist was founded in 2015 by dermatologist Dr Andrew Birnie and Dutch economist David Westerbeek van Eerten. They developed the products in their spare time to keep costs low, and pass that saving on in the price.
