UV Skinz ‘Save A Baby’s Skin’ campaign (Review & Giveaway) CLOSED

 UV Sun Protective Clothing
This month UV Skinz is hosting their 4th annual ‘Save a Baby’s Skin’ campaign.  During this campaign, UV SKinz will be donating a FREE baby UV Swim shirt with every order and also making donations to various maternity wards across the nation!
How did UV Skinz get started?
"I started UV Skinz after losing my 32-year-old husband to melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer.   It was this experience and having to raise our three little boys (1, 3, and 6 at the time of his death) on my own that gave me the drive and determination to educate consumers about the importance of proper sun protection any chance I can get, while still not losing site of how valuable it is to PLAY and HAVE FUN outdoors!" - Rhonda Sparks
 UV Skinz has a complete line of high quality, stylish, affordable UV sun protective clothing.  They have baby, kids and adults Skinz, and an incredible assortment of sun hats, UV shade and accessories. Their UV Skinz are non-irritating, 50+ UPF certified fabric (allowing you to wear less sunscreen), Chlorine-Resistant Fabric, are lightweight and very breathable.
Living in Arizona, it is hard to avoid the scorching sun.  Being that it is so hot, my family loves a good swim in the pool to cool off.  My first priority before going out to enjoy the refreshing pool is sun protection, to avoid unnecessary sunburns for both me, my husband and especially my two girls.  What I like about UV Skinz is the variety of products they have on their site and the convenience of getting our entire family UV clothing all online. 
We received the Chloe Hot Pink UV Short Sleeve (size 2), along with a pair of their adorable Light Pink Girls Board Shorts (size 2) to review and LOVE them both.  What I really enjoy about these two kids skinz products is they cover my daughter's skin perfectly, look adorable, and are extremely comfortable and breathable.  When my daughter wears her Skinz she turns into my little surfer chic! I never have to fight to get her dressed, and she would live in her swim shirt and board shorts all day if she could!
Get your family protected from the sun with UV Skinz!
Buy It!
Go to UV Skinz and purchase UV Sun Protective Clothing!
(Remember throughout May, you will receive a FREE special edition swim shirt with every purchase!)

How can I decide on one? I think the UV combos for the kids are great. My daughter would love any thing pink.
I have been checking into getting "Skins" for the whole family. I can't count the number of sunburns I had as a kid. Great giveaway. Thanks!
