Message from our founder

At Badawii, we love to spend family time outdoors. Sunlight is important for wellbeing, physical and mental health, but we believe it is important to understand the risks of excessive and unprotected sun exposure.

Our mission goes beyond creating beautiful beachwear—it’s about keeping kids safe under the sun and helping families embrace sun-safe habits.

Our commitment is to provide parents with the knowledge and products needed to protect young, sensitive skin from the harmful effects of UV rays, promoting health and confidence from an early age.

Through our blog, #PROTECTYOURSKIN, we aim to raise awareness of the importance of sun protection for children. It’s more than a fashion statement; it’s a lifestyle choice that impacts lifelong health.

Sun safety can be challenging, so we’ve dedicated this space to practical advice on building healthy sun-care routines. Here, you’ll find essential tips to protect your family, from understanding UV exposure to knowing the dangers of skipping sun protection.

Did you know that even one severe sunburn in childhood or adolescence can nearly double the risk of developing melanoma—the deadliest form of skin cancer—in later years? We believe that parents should feel empowered to protect their kids from these risks by starting early with healthy sun-care practices.

Skin cancer is the world’s most common cancer, affecting people of all skin tones. The good news is that unprotected UV exposure is also the most preventable risk factor. Early detection makes skin cancer highly treatable, so we’re here to help parents make informed, preventive choices every day.

As a Dermatologist and mother of 3 kids, I understand the importance of having the right information when it comes to sun protection, which is why I’ve included in this blog answers to the most frequently asked questions I receive in my daily practice.

Here, I provide a trustworthy resource that demystifies sun protection for parents and reinforces our commitment to keeping young skin safe and healthy.

Join us in raising a sun-safe generation. With Badawii, we’re not just covering skin; we’re protecting futures.

With Love,

 

Dr. Micaela Churruca
