Summer Essential: grUVywear

We have a community pool that we love going to in the summer. In fact, here in Western Washington it is only open June-August. So we take advantage of the sunny days when we can. We are very good about putting on 50 SPF on the kids when we are out in the sun. When the opportunity to review a swimsuit from grUVywear arose, I realized that I’d love to see how well this works for my daughter.

Facts:

  • We get about 80% of our total lifetime sun exposure during our first 18 years of life
  • Skin cancer is the fastest growing forms of cancer in the US
  • More than 90% of skin cancer is caused by sun exposure

grUVwear Review:

We were sent the Kids Purple Groove Swimshirt and Kids Purple Groove Bikini Skirt for our Princess to review. She was so excited when our package was open. She tried it on right away and danced around saying, “I love my new swimsuit.” That made me happy. The fit is great for her and the colors are bright. The quality of the suit is top notch. I am so glad that we have sun protective swim clothing for her now. It makes me feel a lot better about spending sunny days outdoors at our local pool.

Since it was a warm day when the suit arrived, we decided to put on our sprinkler and let her try out her new suit:
