Why It Matters
The Good, the Bad, and the Toxic
Ingredients matter. Not a groundbreaking concept, but read a few labels and you wonder if everyone got the memo. Fresh, high grade natural ingredients are the best path to healthy, smooth skin and effective sun protection.
It Shows, Head to Toe
We’re not trumpeting one or two “botanical actives” in an ad or on a label. The ends of our lists are just as sparkling as the beginnings. After all, those mysterious synthetic ingredients lurking at the bottom of most ingredient lists matter, too.
Making a List, Checking it Twice
It starts with understanding what every ingredient is, what it does and why it’s there. It includes tracking current research to make sure we’re giving you the best, most effective, safest product possible.
Why Synthetic-Free?
We believe it’s important to know what goes on our skin. Read our labels: you’ll recognize every single ingredient. Each is natural and many are certified organic. We’ve developed a range of innovations to create healthy, safe, incredibly effective synthetic-free products. Not every synthetic derivative is bad, but there’s almost always a better natural ingredient to take its place. And organics are the surest way to avoid exposure to synthetics. Every time research reveals new risks of one synthetic or another we are reminded why we started from scratch. It matters for your skin, your body, and your planet.
Explore our resources to learn more about the choices we’ve made as a company and you’ll be presented with a choice of your own. Show us a conscious consumer and we’ll show you better skin and a way toward a better world. Join the movement!

It’s always nice to find ourselves in the glossy pages of a major publication, like, say, this month’s Marie Claire (see above). Of course, all that takes is some good p.r. work. It can be more gratifying to get a more substantive review. Check out last night’s LA Examiner, which suggested Vivesana sunscreens are “if not the best, one of the best sunscreens” the beauty editor, April Aldana, has ever tried. Yes, we’re blushing.

and the Takoma Park Co-op have in common? They don’t share a style or a coast, but they do share an overarching, all-consuming drive to carry the best quality products they can find. As it happens, they also began carrying Vivesana yesterday afternoon. We’re thrilled to be working with both of them, and love what the variety of approach says about Vivesana – stores from across the spectrum meet when it comes to strong, safe, stylish and effective sun care. Hurray!
