Kids get Sun Savvy!


Kids get Sun Savvy!



Kids and their parents are getting sun smart with the new Sunscreen Reminder Bracelets that were launched at the end of May. So much so Louise Graham’s sales have been soaring as the weather heats up.


How does it work?


From white to bright in sunlight! Apply sunscreen to the skin and bracelet. As the sunscreen wears off through swimming and perspiration the colour of the bracelet intensifies, reminding of the need to reapply sun cream.


“Kids love seeing the colours change and applying sunscreen becomes a fun activity.” say Louise.  Although these bracelets won’t prevent sunburn and parents should always apply sunscreen regularly as recommend by www.sunsmart.org.uk, these bracelets are encouraging kids to be responsible in the sun in a fun way.


These bracelets are handmade in a range of colours including red, purple, blue, yellow and orange. All bracelets start off white indoors and gradually change to their colour as the uv rays increase. What makes them even more attractive is that Louise can personalise these to each individual order, so they can act as an ID bracelet too.


Starting a jewellery making business was the last thing on Louise’s mind, but a family holiday to Spain proved to be the turning point. While lying on the sun loungers she realised that she wanted to have more control over her working life and most of all spend more time with her young son.


With a keen interest in jewellery, she set about learning the skills and experimenting with designs. This year her new design is a kids “Sunscreen Reminder Bracelet”


Kirsty Budgen bought some for her 2 young boys. “I got my boys sunscreen bracelets for going on holiday they are absolutely fantastic! Due to my children being under 2 years old, Louise created a design that would be safe for them to use.”


Due to such popularity the bracelets are now available for adults too.


Bracelets cost from just £3.50 each and are available at www.charmingangelsparties.co.uk
