Bright and Sunny

Festivals, beach dates, barbecues – red is not a good colour when it comes to our complexions, but the wear and tear on our skin from general summer sun-lovin’ can be more than just cosmetic. Queensland has the highest rate of melanoma in the world, and the sweaty summer months are prime time for those sneaky rays to do us damage. Raising awareness and showing us just how fashionable being sun conscious can be, SunSmart have launched their Sun Savvy Chic Summer Fashion Campaign. Want to win this gorgeous sun smart JASONGRECH dress? Email your own example of a sun-savvy ensemble before November 12 for your chance! Check out the SunSmart Facebook page for more information. Slip, slop and slap never looked so pretty!
