Sun safe swimsuits have come a long way in the last couple of years.
Once upon a time – 1986 to be exact – being sun safe involved covering yourself liberally in Reef Oil.
Then you would head outside to lie under the hot Summer sun on a beach towel for a few hours.
If you were really fancy, you’d have a sun lounge to lie on. They were carefully crafted from thick strips of plastic that stuck to the back of your legs. You could swelter on one of those things for days – hat and sunscreen free.
Fast forward to 2017 and thankfully we all know better.
Our kids wear hats outside without even thinking. Sunscreen is a part of everyday life and the only oil you’ll ever need is now available from Skin Boss.
We’re also a lot more aware about the importance of wearing sun safe swimwear.
While I love a good swimsuit rashie combo, a current sun safe trend I adore is the long-sleeved one piece.
So I’ve rounded up 6 of them for you.
Not only do they offer stylish sun safe protection, but all of the brands and businesses featured are owned/operated by Australian women.
I don’t know about you, but I think that is all sorts of amazing.
