Choosing an anti-uv t-shirt for your kids

When it comes to the sun, we are not all equal. While the consequences of sunburn are quite harmless for adults, this is not the case for children and infants. For children, sunburn and exposure to the sun's rays without any protection can cause irreparable harm to the skin's defence system and the damage to cells is definitive. In this case, the risk of developing skin cancer in later life is significantly higher.

Children can avoid sunburn by wearing protective clothes that are specially adapted to infants. Anti-UV tops, water T-shirts, hats and caps all help to protect your children against the sun from top to toe.

But be careful. Not all anti-UV clothes are equally efficient, and only those with the "UPF50+" mark provide maximum protection against UVB rays.

PROTECTION AGAINST THE SUN ON THE BEACH AND IN THE WATER:

Minimise the risks of exposure to the sun when you are at the seaside by making sure that you have all you need for optimal protection against the sun: sun cream, a hat, sunglasses and an anti-UV T-shirt for the children. The goal is to protect your children's sensitive skin as effectively as possible.

Running, jumping, playing in the water and then in the sand... Children always find a way to have fun on the beach! One of the main advantages of the anti-UV T-shirt for use in the water is its multi-functionality. This beachwear protects the whole family against the sun, everywhere and under any conditions (in the water, on the sand, on the rocks, etc.).

Anti-UV T-shirts are also less "bothersome" than sun cream! When you have several children, you spend a lot of time rubbing them down with sun cream every 2 hours, which is a chore for children who are keen to carry on playing. An anti-UV water T-shirt could be the right choice to save a lot of time. You only need to apply sun cream to the parts of the body that are not covered by the T-shirt.

Our tip: If you plan to relax by reading a book on your beach towel, remember that an anti-UV T-shirt is equivalent to a factor 50 sun cream that you have to apply every 2 hours after taking a swim!

Caution:Not all T-shirts provide sufficient protection against UV rays! A conventional white T-shirt will protect you on the beach, but not when the fabric is wet.
