Typically Ranavat, sun protection becomes a true skincare ritual. The Adaptogenic Shield Complex™ combines 20 plants from the Ayurvedic tradition, including saffron, manjistha, turmeric, licorice, and lotus. At its heart is precious Kashmiri saffron, one of the brand's signature ingredients and part of Indian beauty rituals for centuries. Antioxidant plant compounds, squalane, bisabolol, and vitamin E complement daily UV protection, giving the skin additional care, suppleness, and radiance.

The skincare benefits have also been studied: In an independent clinical study with 30 participants, after 28 days, 83% showed a reduction in the appearance of dark spots and hyperpigmentation, while 73% showed a reduction in fine lines and wrinkles. A sunscreen for anyone looking to combine high SPF with sophisticated skincare and Ranavat's distinctive ritual world.

Key Ingredients

• 12.3% Non-Nano Zinc Oxide - provides high mineral UVA and UVB protection and makes this sunscreen a reliable final step in daily skincare. The finely balanced formula combines high sun protection with a surprisingly lightweight, elegant texture and an even finish.
• Kashmiri Saffron - one of Ranavat's most precious and defining ingredients. Saffron has been part of Indian beauty rituals for centuries and is valued for its antioxidant plant compounds. It supports a fresh, luminous complexion and is particularly beneficial for dull, uneven-looking skin and visible pigmentation.
• Adaptogenic Shield Complex™ - a multilayered blend of 20 plants from the Ayurvedic tradition, including manjistha, turmeric, licorice, lotus, vetiver, and barberry. This antioxidant-rich botanical blend helps the skin maintain its radiance and complements daily sun protection with sophisticated skincare benefits.
• Manjistha & Turmeric - two traditional Ayurvedic skincare plants. Their antioxidant plant compounds support a more even, clearer-looking complexion, making them a valuable addition for skin prone to visible discoloration or a dull appearance.
• Squalane - an especially skin-friendly, lightweight lipid that keeps the skin soft and supple while helping to retain moisture. It gives the formula its cared-for, silky skin feel without feeling heavy or greasy.
• Bisabolol & Vitamin E - complement the formula with soothing and antioxidant care. They support a balanced skin feel, help protect against oxidative stress, and ensure that the skin feels comfortably cared for even with daily use.

How to Use

• Shake well before use.
• In the morning, apply two finger lengths of sunscreen evenly to the face and neck as the last step of your skincare routine.
• Apply approximately 15 minutes before intense sun exposure.
• For reliable protection, reapply approximately every two hours and after swimming, heavy sweating, or towel drying.
• Applying too little reduces the level of protection.
• For a complete Ranavat ritual, use the Brightening Saffron Essence and Brightening Saffron Serum beforehand.
