Of course, you’re probably going to be wearing more than sunscreen when you go outside, so make the most of your clothing choices. The right clothes can increase your protection against the sun’s rays and help decrease your risk of wrinkles, age spots, sagging skin, and even skin cancer.
Consider these guidelines from the AAD.
· Choose silk or cotton over wool. Silk provides the most sun protection, with cotton a close runner-up. Wool is the least protective
fabric.
· Choose a tight weave over a loose weave. If you do wear loosely woven clothing, be sure to apply sunscreen to the skin underneath.
· Choose dark colors over light colors—dark colors are more absorbant. For example, pick black rather than blue and blue rather
than white.
· Choose a hat with a wide brim that will shade the scalp, face, neck, and ears.
· Keep your clothes dry. UV rays can pass through wet clothing.
