Hello, summer. Long days of sunshine and swimming lie ahead and while your friends are reaching for their bikinis, you’re wondering how to keep your vitiligo safe – and avoid turning those white spots a shade of cherry pink.
If that’s you, you aren’t alone. After losing 100% of my skin’s pigment to vitiligo, I struggled to find a way to keep my sun-sensitive skin safe – and still look good doing it. I was tired of constantly applying sunscreen top to bottom and wanted a better way to keep my skin safe from the sun. That’s when I found a one-piece rash guard that changed my summer.
The good news? These one-piece swimsuits are easy to find and today they’re typically made with UPF 50+ material. UPF – or ultraviolet protection factor – is a protection rating for clothing that measures the ability of clothing to protect against UVA and UVB rays. In other words, high-quality UPF clothing can provide the same – or better – protection as broad-spectrum sunscreen.
Here are five look-alike UPF one-piece swimsuits that you can shop today:
