Sun Protection Zone

As you’re preparing for the summer months ahead it’s time to remember how much damage the sun can actually do. At our house we slather on the sunscreen, constantly have on the sunglasses and often have on a hat. Why? With my fair Irish skin I don’t have a choice. Unlikely, both kids have gotten my skin tone as well. As Steve often says we don’t tan we go from white to fire engine red in 0-10 minutes. Now he is off a little. If I do sun in small amounts I don’t burn. I don’t tan either I just freckle.

For those of you like me or that have kids like me there are options. Sun Protection Zone has some great clothing options that will protect you all summer long. With long sleeve suits great for surfing or short sleeve shirt and short sets perfect for swimming, the SunSkinz are tighly woven with a four way stretch fabric that is comfortable to wear, dries quickly and stands up well to chlorine and salt water.
