The Science of Sun Protection.
Mineral vs Chemical Block
Chemical blocks absorb rays, converting to heat that can irritate skin and harm reefs. Mineral or ‘physical’ blocks reflect sun rays for immediate, stable protection.
Ao goes beyond, delivering repair, hydration, and primer in one clean, reef-safe formula. No trade-offs. Just smarter suncare.
Browse our products or let Dr. Gray hand-select them for you.
At Ao, we believe effective suncare starts with understanding your unique skin needs. That's why Dermatologist and co-founder Dr. Mark Gray, has created this quick assessment. In just 2-3 minutes, answer a few questions about your skin type, sun exposure and concerns, and Dr. Gray will recommend a curated set of products tailored to you – from basic daily protection to intensive sun repair.
