Today, June 8th, we are Giving Away... (PRIZE CLAIMED)


One Product of Your Choice from UV Skinz

Father’s Day is just around the corner. So what should you get a special man, be it your father or your husband, on this special day? UV Skinz, of course. Why? Because UV Skinz protects your loved one from the sun’s harmful rays. Plus, he will not need to continually bathe himself in sunblock all day. He can just throw on a UV Skinz and he will be protected. Or some men like UV Skinz for the pure fact that it helps to hold in their bellies. And that's okay, I am a big fan of any product that will hold in my belly.

I got a blue UV Skinz for my husband for Easter. He loves it so I said, “Honey, I would like to take a picture of you in your UV Skinz to put on Give Away Today when they are featured.”

“Nope,” he replied.

But after a little bit of beggin’ and pleadin’, he finally consented. So last week when he was taking the kids swimming at the neighbor’s pool I said, “Perfect, now I can get that picture of you for the website.” So he stood in the kitchen for me to snap the picture. “There’s no sun in here.” I told him. “What?” he asked nonchalantly. “You wear your UV Skinz when you’re in the sun, not in the kitchen. We need to go outside.”

“I’m not letting the neighbors see you taking pictures of me in my swimsuit.” he protested. That led to more beggin’ and pleadin’. And once again, he consented. Such a nice husband.

When we arrived at the pool our friend, who is a Colonel in the U.S. Army, was already swimming. My husband mumbled something to him about me needing to take pictures of swimsuits for my website and I began snapping away.

Despite my assurance that none of our neighbors would care or notice my picture taking, our friend the Colonel later gave my husband the business about being a swimsuit model. And as I was walking home my neighbor Carrie called from her backyard, “Where did you get that swim shirt? I need one for my husband.” “UV Skinz!” I replied. And now not only can our neighbors see a picture of my hubby in his swimsuit, but so can all of you because here he is (look I even persuaded him to put his arm on the slide, thanks Honey!)



However, husbands and fathers aren’t the only ones that can benefit from UV Skinz great sun protection. They also sell UV Skinz rashguards for babies (yes, that is Matthew McConaughey, and yes, his son is wearing a UV Skinz):



And women:
Don't forget the children:

UV Skinz also offers sun hats:
I think it is important to let you know that Rhonda Sparks founded UV Skinz because Darrin, her 32-year-old husband and the father of her three boys, died from skin cancer in 2001. She wanted to offer a product to fathers, husbands, mothers, wives, and children that could protect them from the harmful rays of the sun. Protecting your skin during the first 18 years of life can reduce the risk of some types of skin cancer by up to 78%, which is also a very important thing for every mother to know.

You can purchase UV Skinz products during the entire month of June at a 15% DISCOUNT. Use the code "09SUMMER15" upon check-out to receive the discount.
