LYRA’s UPF 50+ UV Protection Modest Swimwear

Planning a day out at the beach or the pool? Protecting yourself from sunburn would be top priority on your mind when packing sunscreen and wide brim hats, but going into the water would be an entirely different matter. Conventional swimwear is simply designed for moving through the water, offering little if any protection against UV rays or even the chlorine in the water.

Pioneering Sports Fashion

Swimwear with built-in sun protection sounds like something out of a sci-fi tale, but it truly is an effortlessly innovative option when compared to the standard ways of preventing sunburns. LYRA perfected this science with the anti-UV modest swimwear that is taking the fashion world by storm.

Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) is a measure of a fabric’s ability to filter out ultraviolet rays from the sun. All clothes are capable of blocking out some of this radiation - UPF measures the extent to which they do so. Most kinds of summer wear would be rated UPF 5-10 at best, providing minimal protection. UPF 50+ fabric keeps out about 98% of harmful radiation, offering excellent protection against sunburn.

Why not sunscreens?

Using sunscreen might be the standard way to block out harmful UV rays, but the fact is that the chemicals in many sunscreen products have been found to have negative health effects. And it washes off every time you go into the water, so you would be spending quite a bit of time applying sunscreen than enjoying yourself at the beach.

Besides, using sunscreen and going into the water is a bad idea if you consider the wider environmental impacts. Quite a lot of tourist spots have started to curb the use of sunscreen products - which just shows that sunscreen just might not be the easy option for a fine day out on the beach or the pool.
