*I received these products for free in exchange for my honest review*
They sell sun protective clothing and there are many options to choose from but I want to start out with the story on how UV Skinz came alive. It's a sad one but truly inspirational and provides hope for the future.
I took this straight from their website at www.uvskinz.com
Welcome To Our World of Sun-Safe Products
I started UV Skinz after I lost my 32-year-old husband to melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer. It was this experience and being left to raise our three little boys on my own that gave me the determination to want to bring products to the market that can help families live sun safe while never forgetting how important it is to LIVE and HAVE FUN outdoors.
I like to think that UV Skinz sells peace-of-mind from the sun's damaging rays. We make it a top priority to bring our customers the most fun, fashionable, and affordable sun protection apparel and accessories on the market. We take sun protection very serious and we are extremely passionate about what we do and it shows in our work!
Most people don't realize that more than 3.5 million skin cancers in over two million people are diagnosed each year or that the incidence of melanoma in teenagers has increased by 100% over the past 10 years. We want to help change these statistics. 95% of skin cancers are preventable!
Thank you for taking the time to read about our story and explore the pages of our amazing sun protection product offerings on our website. I am blessed to have an AMAZING team of employees, friends and family that support me on this journey. They have given their time and energy and love and commitment to help make this company what it is today and I am forever and always grateful. I hope you will join us in our mission to raise awareness about the need for proper sun protection for people all over the world. This one is for you Darren ...

How truly wonderful. She turned a terrible thing into something that could help others with UPF protective clothing. In my eyes, she is a wonderful heartfelt person who only wants to decrease the chance of others losing loved ones to such an awful cancer.
When I spoke with UV Skinz about trying out their rash guard sets for my toddler, they made the process for me so easy!!! They were fast to respond and quick to deliver!! The package was just big enough for what was sent to me and there was no waste in the packaging.
When I first heard of UV Skinz, I thought they only sold products for kids and babies. To my amazement, they have a huge selection of swimwear not only for kids but adults too! In addition to that, they have sun hats and accessories such as: Shoes, Sun Sleeves, Shades, Sunscreen, & more!
You can check them out HERE.
I had so much fun looking through all of the selections and plan to pick something out for myself for next Summer.
The first sun shirt they sent me didn't fit over my daughters head very well and I explained there was no need to send a whole new suit, we'd use what we can. Their response was pleasing. They were apologetic as it may have been a defect AND they sent a whole new set. The shirt feels so soft and it covers her like a t shirt would but it's breathable so I don't have to worry about her being too hot in it and I don't have to apply a ton of sun block. If you want to check them out, you can HERE.. but be sure to check out the options for the boys, babies, and adults as well!
My experience with them has been nothing but fantastic so far.
They also included a fun little key chain that is an actual UV Indicator. How cool is that?!
One of my favorites out of the whole set is the Reversible Bucket Hats!! One side has a print to coordinate with the sun shirt and the other side is a solid color that coordinates as well. I like that there is an option to reverse it to a solid color so the bucket hat can be worn with other suits and outfits!! My daughter loves to look at the prints though on the side with the design.
The top in the bigger size was easy to put on and my daughter said she loved it. I think she was a big fan of the design!! Even though the first shirt was really hard to wear on her and take off, she insisted on wearing that set one day to the beach. So, we actually got to use both sets and we received compliments by many people. We were asked where we got such cute swimwear and I explained to them that it was from UV Skinz and they should check them out.
UV Skinz also paired the sun shirts up with the swim and play bloomers. They have a little drawstring at the waist line on the inside, so even though the next size up was a little bigger on my daughter, we were able to tighten it to the right tightness we needed to hold them up. They look like cute little shorts. Sometimes my daughter wears them all day long with different tops because they are so cute, she can get them wet, and they dry fairly quickly.
They don't limit their bottoms to just shorts. They have skirts, board shorts, and more to choose from! Take a LOOK!
UV Skinz offers more than just traditional swimwear. They also offer play outfits, one piece suits, cover ups, dresses, hoodies, jackets, and more. I highly suggest that you check them out at www.uvskinz.com and find something to treat yourself or your family!!! There really is something for EVERYONE!
We love our sun wear and hope that you will choose to have an experience with them too! You won't be disappointed!
