Sky & Sol

Sunscreen with a focus on natural, toxin-free ingredients

Sky & Sol
Sky & Sol's Sustainability Rating:

Poor

Sky & Sol's Poor rating is due to a lack of published sustainability information. It’s a smaller brand, which means it likely has fewer resources for robust sustainability efforts and reporting. When Sky & Sol publishes more data, we’ll be able to do a more thorough review.

Sky & Sol doesn't utilize any alternative models or packaging minimization strategies to reduce its waste and emissions footprint, and it doesn't share much information about its packaging materials. However, despite being a small brand, it has succeeded in avoiding many climate-threatening ingredients such as parabens, phthalates, and harmful sun care ingredients.


  • Ingredients

    Sky & Sol has made ingredient commitments to lower its environmental impact, including by avoiding parabens, select other petrochemical-based ingredients, and harmful sun care ingredients. Commons didn't find evidence of environmentally-harmful ingredients such as parabens, phthalates, other petrochemical-based ingredients, palm oil, PFAS, microplastics, or harmful sun care ingredients in this brand's products. This is hard for small brands to achieve. Its products incorporate bio-based and/or biodegradable ingredients. Sky & Sol doesn't report having any product or company-level certifications.


  • Containers & Packaging

    Sky & Sol hasn't made any efforts to concentrate its products or minimize its containers, which increases shipping emissions and packaging volumes. It uses eco-friendly materials in its product containers, including ones that are recyclable.


  • Energy & Water Use

    Sky & Sol doesn't share information on its energy strategy. Sky & Sol has a global production span, which is standard for the industry. Sky & Sol doesn't provide information on any water conservation strategies.


  • Refill & Reuse

    Sky & Sol doesn't utilize any alternative models or methods to avert waste.


  • Slow Cleaning

    Sky & Sol offers an evergreen collection, which helps prevent production of excess inventory.


  • Marketing

    Commons is still evaluating this brand's marketing emails.


  • Transparency & Reporting

    Sky & Sol doesn't appear to have a sustainability page or centralized source of relevant information. Sky & Sol shares a complete list of ingredients used in its products, on a per product basis, but this information is sometimes hard to find.


  • Emissions Tracking

    Commons couldn't find information on this brand's emissions tracking.


  • Targets & Offsets

    Commons couldn't find emissions reduction targets for this brand. Commons couldn't find evidence that this brand offsets any emissions.


  • Supply Chain & Labor

    Sky & Sol doesn't publish information about its supply chain partners. It doesn't publicly share a supplier code of conduct. Commons couldn't find further information about this brand's supply chain and labor practices.


  • Advocacy

    Commons wasn't able to find evidence of any trade association memberships or any relevant policy for this brand. Sky & Sol isn't a member of any key advocacy organizations that are blocking climate policy, but it also isn't a member of advocacy organizations advancing climate policy. It doesn't employ any state lobbyists and didn't donate more than $100k to climate-obstructive candidates or PACs from 2018-2024.
