SunAWARE™

At Coolibar, we have studied the sun safety advice given by countless organizations, discussed it with experts around the world, and summarized it in the following acronym: AWARE.

Be AWARE that exposure to ultraviolet radiation, whether from the sun or man made (tanning beds) can cause premature aging and skin cancers, including melanoma. To help avoid these problems follow the advice given by experts:

Avoid unprotected exposure during the peak UV hours between 10am and 4pm;
Wear sun protective clothing, including a hat with a 3-inch brim and sunglasses, and seek shade;
Apply broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30+ to all unprotected skin and reapply every two hours while in the sun;
Routinely check skin for changes and report suspicious changes to a physician;
Express the need for sun protection to your family and community.

When you are SunAWARE™ you are sun safe.
