About Us
Our Story
My children’s skin reactions to chemical sunscreens and my personal journey with Lyme Disease led to the creation of Solara Suncare. Solving a health and sensitive skin need is the core of what makes our formulas different. We believe that for a healthy defense barrier, our skin can benefit from a similar integrative wellness philosophy as our body: adaptogens, superfruits + science for multi-beneficial results.
Our mission since launching five years ago is to formulate consciously, guided by stricter European standards, replacing questionable and irritating ingredients with the best clinically studied plant + science-backed actives. Working with talented chemists, doctors, healers, estheticians and global testing partners, we’re giving zinc-based sunscreen refresh from the inside out.

What Does Solara Mean?
My children actually used their imaginations to name the brand during a family brainstorm. It’s now trademarked and on shelves globally! It exudes a love of sunshine, positive energy and good vibes.
Credentials Matter.
We believe in third-party expertise and credentialed validation to support the pillars that make our brand different. To us, “clean” means nothing if you don’t have third party certification.
We’re one of the only sunscreen brands to have its entire portfolio EWG VERIFIED™.
A recent study showed 71% of people, like my family, identify as having sensitive or allergic skin. We are their trusted sunscreen solution.
