Tips you should know about sun protection to keep your skin healthy and damage-free.

We've had many trials and tribulations with sun protection, as people who get burned extremely easy, and care deeply about skin health.

When we started wearing UPF clothing 25 years ago, there weren't many sun protection options and we didn't know all the details about suncare-- like how it's possible to get sun damage in the shade... and even on cloudy days. If we had, we would have made sun protection more part of our every day.

Read on to learn all about sun protection, skin health, the science behind sun damage and the types of clothing you should wear to protect your skin.
