You Have to See this Sun Protection Mask

As a fair skinned person, I burn very easily. While I may be considered an adult in the eyes of society, I have yet to master the art of using sunscreen. I will completely neglect large parts of my body. It's mildly embarrassing. There are so many products to help protect your skin from the sun that goes above and beyond sun screen.

Welcome in the Facekini. Yes, you read that right Facekini. The Facekini is a mask that will protect your face from those harmful rays. They are very popular in Asian countries and now are making their way across the globe.

According to their site they provide an SPF of 50+, which blocks 99.8% of UVA and UVB rays. They also say that it has been lab tested for quality.

Why use the Facekini over traditional sunscreens? The website states:

Facial skin is too sensitive to use traditional sunblock and sun screens.  Excess oils from greasy creams often sting the eyes when in the water.  Lotions and oils become absorbed into the skin increasing the risk of skin irritation.

The Facekini comes in 32 different colors and patterns.

The Facekini is made from a nylon, Lycra blend and are one size fits all. To take care of your Facekini, you can hand or machine wash and squeeze (not ring out) to dry or hang dry.

In their FAQ section they give some helpful hints on how to feel comfortable rocking your Facekini. "Wear your sunglasses over your facekini. Add a wide-brimmed hat to keep your neck and shoulders shaded. Bring a buddy along so that you can wear your facekini's together. Smile! Everyone is intrigued by the Facekini. It's a great conversation starter!"
