Please email info@moogoo.com.au - answers here can be restrictive in length but we can give better info through email. The fact that MooGoo even exists is a happy accident. In 2005, the Head of the Herd (Craig Jones) noticed that his mother was using a white paste, intended for use on cows, to help with her Psoriasis. The cream was formulated to help keep the skin on cow’s udders in good condition for milking. Cow’s udders need to be kept soft and supple, not dry and cracked. No one likes an angry cow with sore or cracked udders when it comes time to attach those milking cups. Although it seemed to be working well, the cream was thick and hard to apply. Since his mum didn’t particularly like being lathered in a thick cream made for cows, he took on the task of reformulating it and made up a lighter, non-greasy version. The word “udder” was a bit crass for an old-fashioned “lady” so they referred to it as “MooGoo” (goo for the cows) and the name stuck. Starting a skin care company wasn’t the initial idea, but friends and family kept asking for more of it, and eventually, Craig went into business. Since then MooGoo has grown to over 40 products to help with lots of different skin and scalp problems and sold throughout the world. From dealing with irritable skin and itchy scalps to natural sun care products and a baby range for the little ones. And most recently, a natural dental range. MooGoo’s ingredient philosophy has always remained the same: To make effective products using healthy ingredients, that we are comfortable using on ourselves and our loved ones. Craig continues to be very involved in the business, focusing mostly on formulation and product development.

Do you love the new comb applicator? 🤭
Our talc-free Dry Shampoo uses corn & tapioca starch to soak up oil at the roots and freshen things up between washes 💦
It’s gentle on all scalps, no harsh ingredients, and the mess-free comb keeps it easy!

Our Clear Zinc SPF 40 Sunscreen just tested at SPF 71 in independent testing!
That’s right. After changing the type of Zinc Oxide used in our SPF 40 sunscreen, we retested it in a 10-person test using the Australian Sunscreen Standard. Previously, it tested at SPF 44. With the new Zinc Oxide, the results came in even higher at SPF 71 (check out the results on our SPF 40 web page!)
Regular customers will know our sunscreen is a little thicker than most. That, combined with the new Zinc Oxide, has delivered this outstanding result.
In real-world use, SPF 30 is usually sufficient for most people - so this result is more than enough making it ideal for heavy-duty sun exposure. Even though it tested higher, SPF 50+ is the maximum strength allowed on sunscreen labels, so our sunscreen will continue to be labelled as is.
We believe it’s important for brands to share independent sunscreen test results, especially given recent industry concerns. This means we now have results from two separate accredited laboratories: Eurofins and Helioscience, to remove any doubt.
Our sunscreen is also tested for broad spectrum protection and moderate water resistance. In the past 12 months alone, we estimate we’ve invested over $100,000 in independent sunscreen and dental product testing so we can be confident that what we make works exactly as it should. Worth it!
When applying Clear Zinc Sunscreen, dab it on first (it will appear white initially). As it warms to skin temperature, it will rub in clear. This can take around 20 minutes to go almost totally clear. If sunscreen is rubbed off by clothing (such as straps), be sure to reapply. Zinc sunscreen works by sitting on the surface of the skin and reflecting UV - so it needs to stay in place to do its job.

In just 2 washes, Karim was flake-free after 10+ years of struggle! 🤯
“Everyone told me it was just dry skin, you need oils and moisturiser...but nothing worked until I tried Flake Free shampoo and conditioner.
Within the week my skin cleared up and I can confidently wear dark T-shirts again 😁👍”

Hydroxyapatite (HA) actually makes up 97% of your enamel! 🦷
In fact, clinical research shows HA is just as effective as fluoride at protecting and remineralising enamel - but with a gentler, more natural approach 💙🐮
That’s why we created Moothpaste - a remineralising Fluoride substitute for those who prefer to go fluoride-free 😍

Twelve years ago a son was visiting home and noticed that his mum was using a white paste, intended for use on cows, to help with her Psoriasis. The cream was formulated to help keep the skin on cow’s udders in good condition for milking, and although it worked, it was thick and hard to apply. As you can imagine, cow’s udders need to be kept soft and supple, not dry and cracked. No one likes an angry cow.
Since mum didn’t particularly like being lathered in a thick cream made for cows, Craig took on the task of reformulating it to be lighter and non-greasy to help mum out. The name “Udder Cream” was a bit crass for a lady, so they referred to it lovingly as Moo-Goo, (goo for the cows) and the name stuck. Starting a skin care company wasn’t the initial idea, but eventually friends and family found out about it, tried it and kept asking for more. But it didn’t stop there.
