Sun Protective Clothing

When it comes down to it, clothing like wide-brim hats and long-sleeved shirts (like lightweight rash-guard shirts) are much better skin protectors than sunscreen.

I particularly like Coolibar and Columbia; even though they are a bit pricier, they are of great quality. Another great brand is UV Skinz. Quiksilver has great youth options.

One company, SunGuard, also makes a laundry detergent aid that adds UV protection to your everyday clothing.
