 Personally, I prefer to cover up so that I use less sunscreen. **It's best to have lightweight clothing that keeps you cool in the heat but also covers as much skin as possible.** For example, long sleeve shirts and lightweight pants. Hats are a popular option here for covering the face. Some people wear ski masks and sunglasses to protect their eyes. I'm not going to make an exhaustive list, it's just about what you feel fits your personal style.

 **Umbrellas are also an option.** The ones I've seen in stores only keep you dry. My advice is, *if* you're going to buy one, don't cheap out. I purchased one that blocks UV rays, has a reflective top, permits heat dissipation, and collapses for portability. Although it's good quality, I really don't like using it and I don't recommend umbrellas in general. They don't replace sunscreen or covering up because of their several big caveats:
