subject: Tips For Providing Maximum Sun Protection [print this page] Hats protect hair, eyes, face and the tips of ears. Wide brims offer the most protection and will actually help cool you off. Sunglasses are an absolute must when outdoors. When selecting a pair, make sure the label specifically states that the lenses offer UV protection otherwise they'll be useless. As a general rule, the bigger the lens, the more sun protection. Wrap-around styles offer the most protection because they block sun that can hit the eyes from the sides and they're trendy too!
