For most of us, exposure to the harmful rays of the sun is always a concern. But if you are going through radiation or chemotherapy, it is essential to treat your skin with special care.

It is not always possible to stay out of the sun, (besides who wants too?!) Today, there are products, other than sunscreens that let you enjoy the great outdoors in comfort, and style while providing built-in sun protection. Clothing, hats, swimwear, throws, and umbrellas are just a few.

Happy with my purchase I found through Cancer Be Glammed! My new coverup was a big hit on my recent vacation. The UV protection is fabulous and not at the cost of looking good at the beach! Working in oncology, I am well aware of the damage and risks that one takes with any unnecessary UV exposure. This coverup is a smart idea. I was impressed with the design and the protection it affords for anyone spending time in the sun. I will definitely recommend this to my radiation therapy patients who must be extremely careful of sun exposure.
