This weekend is supposed to be beautiful! While you’re out enjoying the sun at the New Jersey Balloon Festival, it’s important to remember to protect yourself from the harsh UV rays. The folks at UV Sun Sense, will be handing out their easy to use wrist bands which tells you when to apply sun screen and when to hit the shade!

The UVSunSense wristband is a sun-sensitive gauge. Wrapped around a user’s wrist, the wearer then applies sunscreen to their body – as well as the wristband - before going about their outdoor activity. The band then changes color to let the wearer know it’s time to reapply sunscreen – or to get out of the sun. It’s really that simple!

UVSunSense is designed to work with sunscreens of SPF 15 or higher, and will change color at different times depending on the SPF level. UVSunSense is designed to be used in salt, fresh or chlorinated water, and in showers – thus giving an accurate reading after outdoor activities like swimming, running or just playing in the backyard.

So make sure you stop by the UV SunSense booth at the NJ Balloon Festival this weekend or stop one of their “Sun-cierges” to get a free UVSunSense band! For more information, log onto www.UVSunSense.com.
