Light colors may keep you cooler – but dark colors protect you more...
Everyone knows that white shirt or cap will keep you feeling cooler than a dark one – but did you know that the darker colors actually block out more of the harmful UV rays? Deep blues and dark reds are actually the most efficient sun blocking colors. Tightly woven fabrics also give you more protection.
If you know you’ll be out in the sun wearing light colored or light-weight fabrics, it’s a good idea to apply some sunscreen UNDER your clothes.
