Effortless Sun Protection for Every Adventure

UPF 50+ clothing that keeps you and your family safe, comfortable, and living well under the sun

Welcome to Essuntials

Why We're Here

The sun doesn’t come with a warning label, but it should. Invisible UV rays take a toll on your skin daily—causing premature aging, painful burns, and an increased risk of skin cancer. Yet, 90% of these risks are preventable with consistent protection.

At Essuntials™, we believe sun protection shouldn’t feel like an extra task; it should be effortless and natural, like the clothes you wear every day. By blending natural fibers with advanced UV-blocking technology, we’ve created soft, comfortable clothing that lets you live well under the sun without the hassle.

Whether you're hiking a scenic trail, playing pickleball with friends, gardening in the backyard, or chasing the kids at the playground, Essuntials™ makes sun safety effortless and comfortable.
