MADE IN AUSTRALIA. MADE FOR MEN

The wild and rugged Australian environment, known for its truly awe-inspiring landscapes and ferociously harsh extremes, is the life force and inspiration behind VITAMAN.

From the beaches to the rain forests to the outback – and even the urban jungles we call home – VITAMAN products celebrate the raw beauty of nature and harness its power to create effective skincare and haircare solutions for men. All of our products are proudly made in Australia –  from only the best ingredients Australia has to offer: its native botanicals. 

Backed by science and time-tested for over 40,000 years by Australia’s indigenous inhabitants, the unique properties within the naturally-derived botanicals found only in Australia – which have been thoughtfully infused into all of our products.

VITAMAN was born from a desire to address the unique grooming needs of Australia’s men, using only the finest native ingredients. With our very own outback as a living lab for sourcing and testing only the purest and most effective natural solutions for men's skin and hair, VITAMAN has become known around the world as a leader in active naturals.   

 

PIONEERING THE MEN'S GROOMING MOVEMENT IN AUSTRALIA

VITAMAN founder and resident Sydney-sider, Clare Castles, is an experienced Beauty Therapist, International Skincare Lecturer, and former Salon Owner. She spotted the men’s grooming trend in Australia way ahead of the curve – and knew there was an opportunity to create a marketplace that had never existed before. So, after heaps of research about indigenous biochemistry and a solid education on formulating naturally active products, the idea behind VITAMAN was born – to create a natural, 100% Aussie-made haircare and skincare range of products specifically designed for men. 

In December 1999, at the height of a very warm Australian summer, VITAMAN officially launched as the first men's grooming e-commerce brand in Australia. To this day, Clare remains dedicated to VITAMAN's legacy of being the most innovative, effective, and natural men’s haircare and skincare product range available today.
