By: Kym Whitney
As the golden rays of summer sun wash over Newport Beach, locals and visitors alike are reaching for the ultimate skin-saving secret: LĀ SOL Collective Sunscreen. Founded right here in the heart of our sun-drenched paradise, LĀ SOL Collective redefines how we enjoy the sun safely and in style.
A Local Marvel
LĀ SOL isn't just another sunscreen brand; it's a homegrown marvel. It was founded by two Southern California moms (and lifelong friends) who grew up in Seal Beach and attended the University of California, Santa Barbara, together. Born out of the desire to protect our skin without compromising on quality or style, this Newport Beach-based company has quickly become a beach bag essential. The founders, inspired by the active, outdoor lifestyle of the area, wanted to create a product that reflects the vibrant spirit of our coastal communities while offering top-notch sun protection.
More Than Just Sunscreen
What sets LĀ SOL apart is its commitment to using only the best ingredients. With a focus on natural and organic components, their sunscreens are free from harmful chemicals and packed with skin-loving nutrients. Think aloe vera, shea butter, cacao seed butter—all designed to keep your skin hydrated, nourished,and protected. But LĀ SOL goes beyond just skincare. Their vibrant branding, and dedication to sustainability make them stand out in the sunscreen market. Every bottle is a testament to their commitment to the environment with their reef-friendly, non-nano formula, ensuring that your fun in the sun doesn't come at the planet's expense!
Their best-selling, dermatologist-recommended, CLEAR zinc mineral suncare line is designed with health in mind. It is translucent, paraben-free, gluten-free, vegan, lightweight and fragrance-free – perfect for any age, skin tone, and even the most sensitive skin. They also carry a sun stick, lip balms, hair and body oil and will launch SUNKISSED self-tanning bronzer later this year!
