Based in Lagos, Nigeria, Salt and Sunscreen is a swimwear brand that sells niche products for men and women. Our collection features products that are sophisticated and timeless. Founded in 2019 by PingHwa Okorie, Salt and Sunscreen is a Nigerian-based private label men's and women’s boutique brand. Speaking on the origins of the brand, the founder and CEO said, “Growing up in Lagos, it was hard to find swimwear that I loved and felt comfortable in. I wanted to create something that was soft on the skin—that was high quality and sophisticated and that’s how Salt and Sunscreen was born. As a beach lover and traveler, I’m always looking for pieces that are fashion-forward and chic. Now I can bring that beauty and style into pieces for all women. ”
