The winner for the giveaway has been chosen by Random.org and is announced on this post.

It's awfully hot out here and I cringe each time I see a person riding a bicycle under the piercing rays of the sun. There are many days I've sat near the window and thought "Thank God I'm in here and not out there under the scorching heat" (I know I've become spoilt but then it IS too hot to stay outdoors!!)
I remember our recent trip to Sea World a little over a month ago. Temperature readings were high, the heat intensity measured its pinnacle and there we were out in the sun walking from one attraction to the other. It was only on our drive back home did the consequences strike. I felt nauseous and had a splitting headache....the sun had got to me. After that sickening experience I've always been careful not to allow Bunny girl to venture out into the sun for long periods of time. I always insist she and Hubby use the pool only post 7 pm but this weekend it was different.
Bunny girl woke up as bright as a button and asked if she could swim. I hesitated and thought twice but then remembered it would be the perfect opportunity to try out her UV Skinz swim shirt and I'm glad I did!
This is not your regular chic looking kids swim shirt, its a swim shirt with a difference. Here's why-
A UV Skinz Swim shirt ....
- Carries a UPF rating of 50+ (this blocks out over 98% of the sun's harmful rays.)
- Is not made with any chemicals or lotions. The UV protection is in the tight weave of the fabric.
- Helps prevent premature skin aging, sunburn and skin cancer.
- Has been rated all UPF by the Australian Radiation lab, a leading authority on sun protective clothing. (The experts vouch for it too!)
- Is comfortable and not skin tight with its micro fiber silky material
In effect, a UV Skinz shirt and a nice UV Skinz bucket hat coupled with generous amounts of sunscreen lotion will surely protect you and your little one. (Yes UV Skinz has protective clothing for adults too! Do I see a happy dance?! lol! )
Buy it:
UV Skinz presently has an 'End of Summer' clearance and more sun protective clothing here .
Shipping is free for all orders 50$ and above.
