Over the years, our products have been recognized by editors and dermatologists, and we’re proud of that. But more importantly, we’re proud of how the products perform.
Our SOL SPF 50 Mineral Spray-On Lotion was just named Best Mineral Sunscreen in the 2026 Women’s Health Beauty Awards — not best spray, not best new product, but best mineral sunscreen across the category. You can read the full feature in Meet The Winners of the 2026 Women’s Health Beauty Awards.
This one feels different. It validates how we think about sunscreen, that it has to fit into real life for people to use it consistently. And we believe that’s what makes sunscreen effective.
Built From the Same Belief, in a Different Moment
We’ve long been known for our powder sunscreens. That’s where we started, and for many people, that’s what made sunscreen finally feel easy to use, especially when it comes to reapplication. SOL came from that same belief, just applied to a different moment.
Because sunscreen doesn’t work if it only fits part of your day. It has to work across how you really live, your morning routine, getting out the door, going about your day, and finding simple ways to reapply. We created SOL to make full-body mineral protection easier in those moments, not just at the start of the day, but throughout it.
What Makes SOL Work in Real Life
SOL is formulated with non-nano zinc oxide to provide SPF 50 broad-spectrum protection and is water resistant for up to 80 minutes. But what matters most is how it applies.
It uses Bag-on-Valve technology, a non-aerosol system powered by compressed air that lets you spray from any angle, including upside down, for complete and even coverage. It sprays on as a visible lotion so you can see exactly where you’ve applied it, then blends right in, leaving skin hydrated and protected, with none of the heaviness you might expect from a mineral formula. Lightweight, unscented, and formulated with avocado oil, broccoli extract, and niacinamide to nourish skin while protecting it.
Why Editors Recognized It
The Women’s Health beauty editors described SOL as a sunscreen that really works, one that uses zinc oxide to protect against UV rays, doesn’t leave a white cast, and includes niacinamide to support the skin barrier, making it a strong option for active women with 80 minutes of water resistance.
That’s how we think about it too. What stands out to us is how easy it is to use and keep using. When something fits into your day that naturally, you use it more consistently, and that’s what makes it effective.
SOL SPF 50: Built for real life and days in the sun.
What This Recognition Means to Us
From the beginning, we’ve believed the best sunscreen is the one you’ll actually wear. SOL is an extension of that idea, a different format, a different use case, but the same goal. To see it recognized in a category as crowded and competitive as mineral sunscreen means a great deal, because it confirms what we’ve always believed: when sunscreen is designed for real life, people actually use it.
If you haven’t tried SOL yet, we hope you love it as much as we do.
