We take protection very seriously,
it’s proudly in our name.
Ama means mother in many languages, and no one is a bigger nurturer and protector. Vara is a variation of the latin word truth, which stands for wisdom and authenticity. Living up to our name, we strive to be a transparent branding fighting to keep what matters safe.
Our unique blend of mineral ingredients do more than just protect you from the sun, they also help protect your skin from premature aging by blocking environmental pollutants, like smog or exhaust that can cause wrinkles, dark spots, and collagen degradation.
Unlike current suncare brands that haven’t been able to develop a solution that contains the good without the bad, Amavara products have one of the highest concentrations of zinc oxide without harmful chemicals, all while rubbing in clear and feeling good for even the most sensitive skin.
When the Amavara founder became a dad, his family was struggling to figure out which sunscreen had the best protection and the safest ingredients without being sticky and hard to get on their kids on our way out the door. He was left with even more questions and unable to find a sunscreen that made him feel comfortable. So he created Amavara, a product he could trust and stand behind.

Don’t take our word for it
"I love this natural, mineral zinc
sunscreen! I’ve tried several brands and
this is the only one that doesn’t leave a
white-tint layer after applying. It goes on
smooth and isn’t oily… I can even wear it
under my makeup for everyday
protection! Would Recommend!"
"Sunscreen has become something I
wear every day over the last few
years, and this is the first one I’ve
tried that feels so soft on my skin I
enjoy applying it. It doesn’t clog my
pores and it keeps me from burning,
which is no easy feat!"
"I know the danger that my skin is exposed to from all the outdoor activities I take part in, but I’m very picky with what I choose to put on my skin and I don't want a sunscreen that will drip into my eyes and this sunscreen is the first one I have found to offer great protection without ruining my day. Totally recommend it!"
"I’ve been searching for a great
sunscreen for almost a year now and
have not fallen in love with a product
until a friend introduced me to Amavara
a few months ago. The product works
beautifully for my skin, it’s safe, and I am
finally wearing sunscreen daily!"
