Solumbra works.

Tom Stratton (with wife, Sadie)

I had a skin scare when I was in my 20's and that smartened me up about UV protection, fast. The problem was that I hated putting on sunscreen. I hated the greasiness. I hated the fact that I always missed a patch. Then my wife introduced me to Solumbra. I think it's a remarkable innovation. It's lightweight and airy, so I stay cool even when I'm fully covered. I wear it everywhere, from trips to the farmer's market to the tops of roller coasters at Disneyland. It's sun smart, plain and simple.
