Living in sunny Southern California, I am constantly aware of how important it is to protect our skin from sun damage. Coolibar is an apparel company that makes clothing, swimwear and accessories guaranteed to provide an Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) rating of 50+. The fabrics that they use block 98% of UVA/UVB rays and Coolibar guarantees this protection for the life of their products. I had the opportunity to try some of Coolibar’s innovative products and I am excited to share about them!
Coolibar Clothing
This is the Coolibar Women’s LumaLeo Relaxed T-Shirt in Grey Heather. I requested the small size, and the cut is quite generous (hence the “relaxed” description). However, I did notice a little shrinkage after washing. The neck is cut high to provide maximum sun protection.
I really like this shirt’s full-length sleeves with thumbholes. They provide a lot of coverage, yet still allow you to use your hands. It is so convenient to be able to wear UPF 50+ protection.
I also tried out the Coolibar Women’s LumaLeo Beach Pants. These pants are very comfortable and “flowy”. As the name suggests, they are the perfect pants to wear at the beach. However, I will probably be wearing them most often to my son’s soccer games!
Coolibar Accessories
Coolibar also has a wide variety of accessories that provide UPF 50+, including hats and shawls.
I received the Coolibar Blake Elegant Floppy Hat and Sanibel Everyday Beach Shawl and we tested both of them out at a recent Angels baseball game.
I have been on the hunt for the perfect sun hat for a while now, and the Blake Elegant Floppy Hat is just what I was looking for! It has a wide brim (but not too wide) and is comfortable to wear. The polybraid construction is high quality and it seems like it will last a really long time.
The Sanibel Beach Shawl also proved to be very useful at the game. When the sun was up, we used it as a coverup. When the sun went down, my husband used it to keep warm. (The temperature dropped more than expected, and he did not have a sweatshirt). This versatile shawl would make a wonderful gift, as it is one size fits all.
