Fun in the sun

Picture
It's Sun Awareness Week this week (4th - 10th May) and luckily we have
seen a bit of sun in between the showers over the last few days.  I thought I'd use this blog to talk about my experiences in the sun, which I am pretty sure are very similar to many of you with Vitiligo.

I do take very good care in the sun because the lack of melanin in my skin means I have no natural protection from harmful UV rays.  I don't sunbathe and try to avoid going out when the sun is at its hottest, from midday until 3pm.  I always make sure I have a hat to cover my face and wear loose, light fabrics.  However, before I developed Vitiligo,
I absolutely loved going out in the sun and I really enjoy being outdoors,
so I do find it difficult as my instincts are always telling me to get my bikini on and lay on a sun lounger!

On my recent holiday to San Fransisco, I did spend time in the sun cycling round San Fransisco and generally sight seeing.  It was really important for me when developing Vitiliglow, that it had a sun protection factor in it - Vitiliglow has SPF 15 - so that it became an all in one product.  This gave me the flexibility to go out in the sun at times to suit me and gave me peace of mind that I was protected from the sun whilst also having my patches covered.  After years of applying various creams, it was great not to have to add suncream as well.

Now, this might not be everyone's idea of a holiday, but I really got into the Californian way of life and did a Boot Camp plus a spin class at Soul Cycle (I didn't see the Beckhams this time unfortunately).  Vitiliglow really holds up in the gym and is sweat proof and rub proof, meaning if I DID bump into Mr Beckham, I would have been looking my absolute best and my skin would look even, not patchy.

Sunday 10th May is also World Lupus Day and I know over 60% of people with Lupus experience sun induced rashes and also need to be really careful in the sun.  SunSibility, a specialist company in UV protection have developed a large range of clothing, accessories and skin care products to help people with Lupus to enjoy the sun safely without aggrivating their condition.  They have recently launched a new Facebook page - do check it out as there are lots of sun protection tips on there - www.facebook.com/sunsibility.

What are you doing to get ready for the sun?  Let me know - comment below or message me on Twitter or Facebook.

When you say there is no need to put sun lotion on because Vitiliglow has SPF15 does that mean you put the Vitiliglow all over your body (even where it isn't needed)?

Hi Carol, my advice would always be to minimise exposure to the sun as far as possible as your depigmented skin is so sensitive. I always try to wear a hat, wear loose clothing that covers me and avoid sunbathing. Vitiliglow does include SPF 30 (the original version had 15 in it) so it will protect you, however you may also wish to use a dry mist sun cream, one that isn't greasy. I'd apply this under Vitiliglow if you were going to be exposed to very strong sunlight for a long period of time. Hope this helps. Polly

When I first heard about your product quite a few years ago you used to do testers. I did contact you later and you said you were hoping to do these again but you had problems with suppliers. Do you now do these as it’s quite difficult to pick out which colour would be best for me. I don’t want to get a colour and then find out it’s not suitable.

I just want to say Thank You to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I have been playing Powerball tickets for 6 years now since I turned 18. I bought my first ticket on my 18 birthday. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Dr. Odunga Michael to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream. I had won $768.4M. You can check my winning testimony with the lottery officials just with my name search. Thank you Dr Odunga. Well, his email is [email protected] and you can also call or Whats-app him at +2348167159012 so you guys can contact him

A Life-Changing Experience, Dr Kachi A Testimony of Gratitude

I would like to share an extraordinary experience that has transformed my life. I came across a remarkable testimony online forum about a powerful and renowned spell caster, Dr. Kachi. At the time, I was skeptical because I had never encountered anything related to magic or spell casting before. However, the story of Dr. Kachi's work resonated with me, and I decided to give it a chance. For years, my family and I struggled financially, and despite my best efforts, I never had luck winning the lottery. I loved playing, but winning seemed impossible. Everything changed when I connected with Dr. Kachi, who provided me with a winning lottery number through a powerful spell. In just 24 hours, I was able to play the lottery and won the Lotto 6/49 prize, a remarkable $68 million cash prize, on September 27th in the Gold Ball Draw. This incredible win has completely changed my life and the financial well-being of my entire family. After 10 years of trying unsuccessfully, I am now living my dream life. I am beyond grateful to Dr. Kachi for his assistance, Dr. Kachi has truly been a blessing to me and my loved ones. I encourage anyone who is interested to reach out to Dr. Kachi for guidance. his website https://drkachispellcaster.wixsite.com/my-site or email [email protected]. Also reach him text or call +1 (209) 893-8075.Thank you once again, Dr. Kachi, for making my dreams come true.
