Drunk Coconut was an all-natural skincare company focused on using the world’s tropical elements in its line of products. The company, which was based out of Fort Morgan, did not use any synthetic ingredients and had a strict “only-active ingredients” policy.
The skincare line was founded in early 2018 as a family-owned business (mother, daughter, & son). The family had always suffered from difficult skin problems ranging from severe acne to dry and irritated skin.

Julie Amman, the mother, had always created her skincare products to combat the family’s skin issues. After enough trial and error, she created formulas that worked not only for her but for the whole family.
While she previously ran a daycare center, she stopped working in 2016 due to a rare genetic lung disease that will eventually lead to a double lung transplant. Julie’s children, Nichole Rodriguez and Zach Schwindt, saw this as an opportunity to start a business around their mothers’ skincare products. They branded the products “Drunk Coconut”, which is symbolic of the various tropical elements used in the skincare line.
“After high school I went on an extensive backpacking trip where I spent a lot of time in tropical countries,” Schwindt said. “People in the tropics often have excellent skin and I learned a lot about key yet unconventional ingredients like kaolin clay, lavandin flower powder.”
Their products use sustainable ingredients, such as non-diluted, plant-based oils. They never use synthetics, GMOs, parabens, alcohol, sulfates, or petroleum.
Popular Products
Drunk Coconut sold its products in various boutiques and retail stores around Colorado, as well as online at its website. They shipped within the continental U.S., however, not internationally at the moment.
“Our grandma is a big inspiration for our line” Schwindt explained. “Although she’s 80 years old, she looks 45. Skincare has always been her biggest passion and she’s always helping us develop formulas.”
Drunk Coconut’s best sellers included:
- Pink Clay Mask
- Facial Exfoliant
- Brazilian-Mango Grapefruit Body Polish
- Seaside Citrus Dead Sea Salt Scrub
Take a look at the founder’s other company, Origin Vanilla. It sources vanilla beans and extract from farm-to-kitchen.
