Natural, Ethical, effective

Male Grooming

Triumph & Disaster are a modern-day apothecary and natural skincare foundry from New Zealand that make haircare and skincare products predominantly (but not exclusively) for men.

Triumph & Disaster was founded in 2011 by Dion Nash, a former international cricketer who played for New Zealand for nearly 10 years before retiring due to injury. His passion for skincare dates to his time spent enduring sun, wind and sweat whilst playing professional sport. He wanted to create a brand that was clean, natural, ethical, and effective, using the latest green science and proven ingredients.

Triumph & Disaster

Holistic Self-Care

The brand’s name comes from the poem “If—” by Rudyard Kipling, which encourages the reader to treat triumph and disaster equally and to keep moving forward. The quote from the poem is ‘if you can meet with triumph and disaster and treat those two imposters just the same’. We love this ethos, and the brand!

Triumph and Disaster’s founder, Dion Nash, has described the brand as being about “helping men be the best they can be, not just in terms of their appearance, but in terms of their confidence, their approach to life, and their impact on the world.” This commitment to holistic self-care is reflected in the brand’s use of natural and organic ingredients, which are chosen for their effectiveness and their gentleness on both the skin and the environment.
