Last week I found very good comments from Sheryl, one of my customers and she is the web mistress of http://www.realwomen.co.nz/. It was really a coincidence, as I typed the keywords “plus size swimwear” (to check on my website SEO) into http://yahoo.com.au/ and after I clicked on NZ button, I found the title: “Re: Plus size swimwear - Realtalk Forum Index” on the 2nd position of Yahoo first page, I hadn’t known the feedback that was for Curvysea, but with curiosity, I opened the forum page and there I was filled with happy emotion when I read them, the great comments from Sheryl and from other real ladies.
If you'd like to read them, please go to http://www.curvysea.com/ and click on the link to my customers' testimonial page.

What Sunscreen Is Right for Us!
There are lots of sunscreens on the market, providing all sorts of protection and benefits but which one will protect us the most?
According to Dermatologist, Dr Natasha "It's all that little bit of sun you are getting every day, that cumulative damage that in the end is going to give you problems, not only with cancer but pigmentation, broken capillaries and that sallow, chicken-skin appearance which is very hard to rectify once it comes so you need to prevent it."
She recommended "You should be aiming to buy an SPF 30 plus sunscreen. Then look for active ingredients, zinc and/or titanium - they are physical blockers that reflect the sun from our skin, essential for sunscreen to work. These days zinc, nanonized zinc or zinc oxide is invisible on your skin"
Other information from Anita Teng, Cancer Council Australia, you should make sure the sunscreen including UVA and UVB protection, which will help you prevent malignant skin cancer, melanomas, as well as preventing sunburn, sagginess, blotchiness and reduction of collagen radiation, ageing skin, wrinkles and yellow or brown spots.
To make it work the best, you should put it on before you go outdoors, 20 to 30 minutes (allowing the cream to absorb) before you expose to the sun and make sure you put enough suncreen on your body (1teaspoon per limb /Anita's advice).
Adding to sun protection is to wear one piece swimwear or two piece tankini or a kaftan, plus a large hat and a pair of sun glasses.
