These ultraviolet risk detector cufflinks changes color with the everchanging UV risk of the sun.  Never get sunburned again!

You never really know when the sun is too strong. This clever UV monitor tells you what strength the sun is at any given time so you can know when to apply sunblock. It could be cloudy early or late in the day so you think it’s safe to be in the sun unprotected. But even when it is overcast outside, you could be at risk of a burn and frequent UV exposure can cause skin cancer.

This non-digital low tech gadget charm gets darker and darker as UV radiation strength/risk increases. It is such a pretty color when it is in the sun - it changes from white to a light pink or a dark pink or a mauve color right before your eyes. It is really fun to play with in the sun and shade and works pretty quickly (less than 5 seconds).

Experiment with it: put your UV glasses over it, slather it with sunblock, shine a UV light over it, cover it with your hand, etc.! No batteries.  Use it over and over. I recently found that it was white (no UV exposure) inside my driver side window but once I roll down my window, it was pink! I had no idea I had UV protection, here I thought I had to buy tinted windows.

The indicator itself is made of a special UV measuring plastic using color change technology from AUMY. The color is the indicator of UV strength.  Cufflinks come in a black faux leather cufflink metal box perfect for gift giving.  Also included is a UV light so you can play with your cufflinks indoors.
