Products
Are all Coconut Smuggler products reef safe certified?
Our original trio of Feeling Nauti, Landlubber, and Island Dweller are reef-safe certified. All other products are not "certified" but do NOT have any ingredients that will harm you or our friends in the ocean.
Are Coconut Smuggler hair products suitable for all hair types?
Absolutely! Feeling Nauti was designed to be heavier to act as a barrier to salt water. However, it easily rinses and washes out. Landlubber, our "does everything" hydrating mist, is great for all hair and skin types.
Can I use Coconut Smuggler hair products if I have extensions?
Because Feeling Nauti is oil based, it’s not recommended for tape in style extensions.
What is the self life of Coconut Smuggler products?
We recommend using them within 12 months.
Are Coconut Smuggler products vegan & cruelty-free?
You bet your salty, sun-kissed skin they are! Nothing sneaky here- just ocean-loving formulas that keep things clean and guilt-free. The only thing we test our products on are ourselves (and maybe a few willing beach bums who can't resist a good hair day).
Is the Coconut Smuggler fragrance non-toxic?
Sure is! We love a good, beachy scent, but not sketchy chemicals. Our signature scent is free from bad chemicals like parabens and phthalates. Smelling like summer with us won't leave you questioning your life choices. See our full fragrance statement below.

My package says delivered, but it’s nowhere to be found. What now?
Don’t panic—sometimes packages like to play hide and seek! Here’s what to do:
- Check around – Sometimes carriers leave packages in a safe spot (mailbox, porch, side door, or even with a neighbor).
- Give it a little time – Weird, but true: carriers sometimes mark packages as delivered a day early.
- Check with your carrier – They might have more info on where it was placed.
