sun protective clothing
HI,
I have been buying sun protective clothing for my children for 6 years now and I have had the best results from: www.sunsmartpr.com www.kristyjuv.com www.shadysun.com www.alexandme.com There are so many options now and these 2 have the best customer service and selection. I recently found www.kristyjuv.com and she has women's outfits which I have purchased. |

When my wife and I were in equatorial Africa for a month when the sun was directly overhead and we were at 5,000 ft. elevation, we used SPF clothing. We got ours at: http://www.llbean.com http://www.cabellas.com http://www.rei.com http://www.landsend.com http://www.columbia.com All performed very well, fit very well, and were easy to care for. They were all quick dry fabrics. However, most importantly they must be the correct items: Long sleeved shirt and blouses, Long legged pants, UVA and UVB protective sunglasses, and, VERY important, a broad brimmed hat. The best hats are at: http://www.tilley.com/ They aren't cheap but they are insured against loss, guaranteed and come with an owners manual. Tilley has other SPF/UV certified clothing also. What's this, double team spammers? |

It lasts for up to 30 washes in the machine. I started using it a few years ago because the medications I was on made me very photosensitive and my skin would burn through my clothes. After I used this product I was fine. Ordinarily I'd say this was a potential placebo effect, but sunburn is sunburn. |

Kittery Trading Post has a line of sun-protective clothing, I can't remember the name but LLBean also carries it. KTP is a bit cheaper. -- Ann, gardening in Zone 6a South of Boston, Massachusetts e-mail address is not checked ****************************** |

It didn't translate to screen. I do think I'm going to invest in a really good hat this year. I can NOT have sun on my face any more. I burn in the shade! V |

I burn in the shade That Tillie hat line that someone else mentioned is really good, but I don'tthink the brims are broad enough.. I've got several nicely woven, broad brimmed straw hats I wear out there. I don't burn much, but the sun on my head and in my eyes will bring on migraines guaranteed. -- Ann, gardening in Zone 6a South of Boston, Massachusetts e-mail address is not checked ****************************** |

I have rosacea so my face gets red even without a drop of sun. It flares up when I do anything strenuous. I also have straw hats and they suffice, but they stick in my skin all scratchy after a spell. The Asian market store sells the hats Asians wear when planting rice. They are cone shaped and I may try that. It is made of bamboo. I hate getting old. My body is decomposingggggggggggggggg. |

A straw hat would be a sad mess by that point. |

I should give my body time to rejuvenate after a year or chemo injections for my Hep C. Hopefully this was the time it worked. I had the same treatment four other times and was negative for several years to have it return. |
