Heads Up! You May Be Burning Through Your Clothes!

We all do our best to stay sun safe, but sometimes, even with the best of intentions, our efforts can fall flat.

Sure,  that long sleeved tee covers your arms and you feel good about popping on your favorite baseball cap – but the harsh truth is it only blocks about six percent of the sun’s damaging rays. That means despite your best efforts, you can actually burn through your clothes.

Thats where UPF50 clothing comes into play. It blocks 98% of the suns rays thanks to special fibers that block UVA and UVB rays. It’s wicked, it’s fashionable and it will let you enjoy those long days in the sun!

Keep in mind, you must still wear sunscreen in all exposed areas, but UPF50 clothing is an absolute must for your Sun Safe Took Kit.  Keep in mind the same applies to your pop-up tents and cabanas! If the cover you are under is not UPF50, it is offering very little protection. Its especially important for the little ones!

Here then are some of our favorite UPF50 clothing and tent companies recommended by our Claire Marie Medical Advisory!  Happy shopping!
