Best sun safe suits

Does anyone have a good sun safe suit recommendation? Dd is 2 and last year wore an all in one but am not sure if I should go for trousers and bottoms or all in one again this year. Many of those I have seen have short legs too which seems to defeat the purpose somewhat?

TIA

IMHO ones from eg M&S are just as effective as the expensive branded ones (eg Ozone etc)

My DS (3 in March) lived in his M&S trouser/bottom combo last summer on the beach most weekends and was fine. I just buy bigger sizes so that the legs/arms are longer - this year he has age 5/6 which is virtually long sleeved with legs down to ankles. He is pretty chunky though so the pants don't fall down

Thanks. All the ones I've seen are not right! Will keep looking. Thanks again.

Good luck, I might have a 2-3 suit that DD had - can have a look if you are interested. Think it was Ozone brand.

Was just about to start a thread with the very same title!! We're going abroad in a few weeks and I need to cover my 3 year old and 7 month old up in the sun. Sun suits seem a much easier/safer option than trying to pin them down to slather them in cream on more than just arms, legs and faces.

Should I get 2 suits each or will 1 be enough for a 2 week holiday? Do they rinse well and dry out fast?
