Product Description

BHAKTI SUN SHAWL

Our Bhakti Sun Shawl is lightweight and extra lengthy for infinite wear options to customize your style and accommodate your desired coverage. Wear as a drape pashmina-style around shoulders or head, lay it over your legs while sitting, or keep it handy for impromptu adventures under the sun. Soft to the touch, with a wide color selection and UPF 50+ protection you can always depend on.

Coolibar ULTIMATE COVERAGE Collection is a series of UPF 50+ styles designed to coordinate for complete outfits to cover up to 90% of exposed skin and block 98% of UVA/UVB radiation.

Complete outfitting with the Coolibar ULTIMATE COVERAGE Collection offers extended skin coverage for arms, chest, legs, ankles, hands, face, neck, head and ears. No one piece of clothing can prevent sun damage, but by combining pieces from the ULTIMATE COVERAGE Collection, you can cover up to 90% of exposed skin.

The Coolibar Advantage

As the industry leaders for UPF 50+ apparel, Coolibar is the first clothing company to receive the Skin Cancer Foundation’s Seal of Recommendation. Tested more than any other brand, endorsed by experts worldwide and recommended by dermatologists—Coolibar guarantees our exclusive UPF 50+ fabrics will block 98% of UVA/UVB rays from the first day the product is worn until the day your garment is retired. Coolibar works closely with dermatologists, athletes, cancer survivors and mission-driven organizations to develop the most innovative, technical and high-performing sun protective apparel and accessories. We offer styles for travel, fitness, swim, fishing & boating, golf & tennis, everyday and special occasion for the entire family.

An average cotton t-shirt may not safeguard you at the beach, let alone on the street. When dry, a white cotton t-shirt only provides an ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) of 5-7*. Even worse, when wet from the pool, the protection level drops to about UPF 3, exposing us to UV radiation we may be unaware of.

Today, 90% of skin cancers and premature aging are a result of compounded UV exposure. Coolibar’s ZnO t-shirts, polos, tunics, cover-ups, dresses, hoodies and pants are super soft, comfortable and UPF 50+, blocking 98% of UV rays wet or dry. All our fabrics are guaranteed UPF 50+, from the first time you wear our product to the day you retire it.

Since UV damage is cumulative and irreversible, starting kids and teens with UPF clothing provides the best option when it comes to outdoor activities. With ultra-soft fabrics, like our ZnO, kids fall in love with Coolibar t-shirts which we design to keep them sun safe year-round.

UPF vs SPF

Why are clothes called UPF instead of SPF?

Between UPF and SPF, the concept is essentially the same, to protect your skin from ultraviolet radiation. What SPF is to lotions, liquids and serums, UPF is to fabrics and clothing. SPF only measures sunscreen protection from UVB rays, the burning rays. When applied correctly, SPF 30 blocks 97% of UVB rays. UPF 50+ measures light transmittance, blocking 98% of UVA and UVB rays. Coolibar fabrics exceed all published American and Australian standards.

How is Coolibar ZnO t-shirt fabric developed?

ZnO is our unique blend of cotton, bamboo viscose (a natural UV fighter) and spandex fabric, embedded with millions of zinc oxide minerals at the fabric level. Zinc Oxide protects against UVA and UVB rays and has many skin comforting qualities, often used on the most sensitive skin types. So soft and soothing, our Coolibar ZnO t-shirts are sure to become your everyday favorite.

Health, happiness and life in the sun.

OUR MISSION IS TO KEEP THE WORLD SAFE FROM SUN DAMAGE, PROTECT THOSE WITH A SUN-RELATED MEDICAL CONDITION AND PREVENT EVERYONE ELSE FROM DEVELOPING ONE.

We believe everyone deserves the right to an active, outdoor lifestyle in the sun, so Coolibar clothing and accessories are UPF 50+. Sun protection is our sole purpose. That’s why we custom design, produce and offer technically elegant styles in proprietary fabrics that block 98% of UV rays.

As trusted experts in sun safety, we know the more you're covered, the more you're protected, and the more you'll enjoy a carefree life outside. We’ll never compromise on protection. We’ll never skimp on quality. We’ll always test our fabrics for UPF 50+ protection. Welcome to health, happiness, and Coolibar life in the sun.

This thing is magical!!

Size: One SizeColor: Charcoal HeatherVerified Purchase

We are actually walking around Universal Orlando right now and I stopped to write this review… Anyone who is conscientious about sun protection, you need to buy this thing right now! I have had two melanomas so I am pretty obsessively careful about the sun. Bought this because we were going to be walking around an amusement park for days on end and I wanted the extra protection. This scarf folds down to next to nothing and is super lightweight... so easy to just toss in a backpack. But outside in the heat, humidity and direct sun, I thought having a wrap around my shoulders/neck was going to be stiflingly hot. I am shocked at how comfortable it really is. Provides great sun protection but not only that, I think I might actually feel cooler with it on since it blocks out the direct sun rays. Also, surprisingly, we started out our week at a volleyball tournament in a convention center that was ice cold. This worked perfectly as a wrap over my shoulders indoor. Kept me quite comfortable. Wish I had known about this years ago… So versatile!!! It’s long enough that it goes over your shoulders and will cover your arms down to the hands. It’s wide enough that once over your shoulders, it drapes down most of the back, almost to your waist. A great product!!!

so it worked great as a scarf

Bought this for my recent trip to Ireland and Greece. It was cold in Ireland, so it worked great as a scarf. I'm tall (5'8'') and burn easily, so it was also perfect for the beach in Greece. I would go in the water, and instead of having to reapply sunscreen, I would just lay out and cover my body with this. It was large enough to cover everything but my head. (I clearly don't care if I look like a dork) It was also perfect for those long days walking around in the sun. Just covered my back and shoulders when the sun was at its peak. And since it's a stretchy fabric, it worked well tied around my waist when not using it. This scarf got me through 12 days in the Greek sun without getting sunburned. So glad I bought it!

Perfect for Extra Protection at Theme Parks, Poolside, Hotels, Anywhere!

Reviewed in the United States on June 5, 2017

Verified Purchase

Purchased this to wear in Disneyland theme parks, as my all my t-shirts are crew and v-neck, which leaves my neck areas exposed. I wore this as a shawl/wrap whenever the sun got intense, and it really did prevent my front and back neck areas (as well as my forearms) from getting any sun whatsoever. Whenever we went indoors or on rides, I just wore it loosely in scarf fashion, draped around my neck. It is also great to wear as a shawl/wrap over a bathing suit for a little extra coverage while walking through hotel lobbies or sitting at the poolside restaurants. I even used it when I got chilly in the evening. Also, one cool morning, my daughter wrapped up in it when she forgot her jacket on the way to the parks. I thought it might be too big for my needs, but it was perfect! I used it WAY more than I ever expected. Just folded it up and stashed it in my purse. Love it!!

Love the look, feel and versatility of this shawl. Big enough to be even used as a skirt on my 5’8” 145 lb frame. Ordered another one in black and planning to buy in a couple of other colors and patterns as welll.

new favorite item--versatile and protective

Reviewed in the United States on October 9, 2017

Size: One SizeColor: WhiteVerified Purchase

Yes and yes! Wore this for a wedding outside, where there was zero shade and I didn't want to get scorched. Can be scrunched as a scarf or draped as a shawl. Looks elegant, not like an SPF product. Kind of a sporty-ish fabric, not as heavy as bathing suit material, that will not give much warmth (outdoor wedding dropped to 50 degrees with no heat lamps, yay). But if you need protection and versatility and don't want to look like a goofball doing it, this is the trick. PS, I ordered white. Washes and air dries well.

Versatile shawl

Reviewed in the United States on June 21, 2021

Size: One SizeColor: White/Grey Mini GeoVerified Purchase

Easy and simple. You can throw it on your shoulders to protect your shoulders, arms and neck. I wear it also when I drive to protect against the sun on my neck/decolle" area when I drive facing the sun. It is ight enough to carry in your bag/purse. I don't find it too warm when the weather is hot, I would even say the material makes it refreshing on your skin. Washed it only once so far, hand wash, cold water with delicate Woolite. Recommend it, great product for sun protection.

Soft and light, but looks better on one side vs the other

Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2021

Size: One SizeColor: LavenderVerified Purchase

Love this color (lavender), love the length. Great size for a shoulder wrap or a scarf. I get a stiff neck when it's cold so this helps with that. I can also cover my chest and arms while in the car to stay warm and protect for my sun allergy. I will probably pick up more colors now. I put this on with the Coolibar valene swim cover up and it looks so good I could wear it to a cocktail party! The only thing I don't like is it looks more finished on one side vs the others. There's definitely a "front" vs a "back"

I don’t like the material much.

Reviewed in the United States on December 17, 2018

Size: One SizeColor: WhiteVerified Purchase

I bought a black one some years ago and the material was much nicer and lighter. This is heavier and thicker, therefore not so nice for hot climates. It looks like cheap polyester.
