Our Story
Nature gave us the answers
Innovation, eco protection and inclusivity are at the heart of Amavara’s mineral based formula; meticulously designed by world renowned chemist and sunscreen expert, Laura Singleton, and skin cancer survivor and entrepreneur, Craig Irving. Craig’s love for surfing, and the outdoors, combined with Laura’s unparalleled expertise in sun care and skin aesthetics informs the Amavara brand. The goal was to create a sunscreen that is socially responsible, offers broad spectrum protection without any harmful chemicals, and is effective and safe for your family, and the environment. Amavara confidently protects and looks good on your skin so you can stay active outdoors, and embrace nature.
What makes our sunscreen unique is the patented EarthWell technology we use to make a zinc sunscreen blend transparently. Many competitors cannot do this, and use a lower amount of zinc to ensure blendability. Zinc is one of two, and the superior of the two, minerals the FDA classified as safe and effective in sunscreen. The more zinc, the better the protection. We specifically use a non-nano zinc, which is what makes our sunscreen entirely reef safe. We are compliant, and go beyond the reef safe sunscreen regulations passed in Hawaii and Florida. Mexico is expected to follow suit in the near future. We are proud of the products we have developed, our commitment to an eco-safe future, and a healthier sunscreen for you.Designed with all skin types and skin tones in mind, Amavara offers superior protection for everyone.
