Introducing: Triumph & Disaster Natural Men's Care Products
My husband needed a facial moisturizer and asked me to find him one. So I did a little research.
Esquire, Forbes, GQ…all had rave reviews of several Triumph & Disaster products.
The online reviews were positive. The stories behind the products were intriguing. The inspiration behind the name was just really cool.
But the true test? The husband.
“Hey I’m out of that moisturizer. Why don’t you carry that line?”
So here we are.
From Dion, the founder:
I come from a long line of boxers and tailors, boxers on my dad’s side, tailors on mum’s. Needless to say I grew up well dressed and prepared to defend myself, but the contradiction was never lost on me.
At about 13 years of age my father gave me a framed poem called “IF” by Rudyard Kipling. It was at a time when son was rebelling against father, so the poem was promptly defaced and thrown in a bottom drawer, but never thrown away.
The poem is advice from a father to his son on how to be a man. It is about humility, honor, risk & reward.
More than two decades later when the seed of an idea for a range of skincare products was born, values like these were ruminating through my mind. They are values I thought would help mould a brand capable of reminding us that aces of ritual and preparation are worthy endeavors and that healthy skin is something to aspire to and be proud of.
Triumph & Disaster’s philosophy is to use the best of science combined with the best of nature to produce naturally derived bu scientifically engineered products that work. We use local indigenous ingredients such as Horopito oil and Ponga fern extract blended with scientifically proven and natural ingredients from around the globe, such as clay from Australia, Jojoba extract from Mexico and Tamanu oil from Polynesia.
Finally, we believe that the future of sustainable business is a path of integrity and honesty (great marketing and a rocking distribution system may also help) and that customers deserve at least this much from the brands they support.
We aim to respect nature, utilize science, create products of ritual and tools of preparation—so we can treat Triumph & Disaster, those two imposters just the same.
A beautiful, natural, and effective personal care gift for the great guys in your life. Shop in store at our location in Marion or stay put and view the full collection online here.
