UV Skinz with giveaway **Closed**



UV Skinz started up after Rhonda's husband Darren passed away after a 5 year battle with malignant melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer. Rhonda decided she wanted to make a difference and she can. She doesn't want more families to have to go through what she and her family did. Did you know that just one severe sunburn during a child’s first fifteen years could double the chance of developing skin cancer as an adult? I didn't.

I do everything in my power to protect my children from BPA, obesity, illness etc. When the BPA scare came about I immediately through out all of the number 7 plastic from my house, I get flu shots and feed my children healthy and try to do some organic. I do the best that I can with the information that I can.

I always sunscreen my kids and when I learned about UV sun wear I started buying it for my kids. I love the idea that I can get a long sleeved shirt for my daughter so that her neck and arms are covered for as long as we need them covered. Think about how much of their skin is exposed in a bikini. There is no re-sun screening or worrying about it coming off in the water. There is also no adding chemicals to your child's body. Sunscreen isn't the healthiest thing to put on your body, and its definitely better than even natural sunscreen in that you put it on and you are good, no reapplying!


We got to try out the Skargyle long sleeved shirt and matching shorts. The size was great, shes 7 in 2 weeks so we got a size 8. The shorts fit great but won't last to long. She has a bigger bum :) The top is a generous size. Its a bit baggy and should fit snug so it will last a long time. The seams are all flat-locked so there is no rubbing or chafing. There is also a tag built right into the back of the shirt for your child's name so you have much better luck getting it back if you lose it and as my daughter learned, knowing the front from the back.

We love our UV Skinz and know that you will to. They aren't just for kids either, you can one for yourself or husband. Everyone needs protected from the sun. If you would like to win a UV skin of your choice enter to win one here!
