History.
Zinka products started in 1986 with the idea of adding color to lifeguards zinc covered noses. After a few months, the company grew from 2 people to 60 employees. Zinka suncare products are made from zinc oxide and come in a variety of 16 colors. The company sponsors professional surfers, volleyball players, and other athletes. Upon their success, Zinka began expanding their products from just nose cover to oils, clear sunscreens, and lip balms. The company is based in Rancho Dominguez, California.
In the following years, the demand for bright colored Zinka products fell.
