Swimsuits are no longer just fashion pieces for going to the beach or the pool. They play an essential role in protecting our skin, and that of our children, against the harmful effects of UV rays. At Loumio, we have created swimsuits that combine comfort, style and protection. But what is an anti-UV swimsuit, and how to take good care of it? Find out everything in this article.
What is an anti-UV swimsuit?
A UV-protective swimsuit is specifically designed to protect the skin from the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays. These garments are made with fabrics that block a large portion of UV rays, even when wet. Loumio UV-protective swimsuits, for example, offer UPF50+ protection, which means they block about 98% of UV rays .
This type of clothing is especially important for children, whose skin is more sensitive to sun damage. Unlike sunscreen that needs to be reapplied regularly, a UV-protective swimsuit provides continuous protection for as long as the child wears it. It is an easy and practical way to ensure maximum safety during sunny days.
How to take care of your anti-UV swimsuit?
To ensure the longevity of your anti-UV swimsuit and preserve its protective properties, here are some simple tips:
- Rinse it with clean water after each use to remove salt, chlorine and sunscreen.
- Avoid twisting or rubbing it too hard to avoid damaging the fabric fibers.
- Do not let it dry directly in the sun , prefer drying in the shade to preserve its color and anti-UV effectiveness.
- Do not wash at high temperatures . Hand wash in cold water is ideal, otherwise prefer a delicate machine cycle.
- Avoid tumble drying and ironing , as the heat can damage the fabric's protective fibers.
- Store it carefully after drying in a clean, dry place to avoid mold.
These small steps will allow you to keep your anti-UV swimsuit in perfect condition throughout the season and even beyond!
