Summer Skin Safety Giveaway

The Summer Skin Safety Giveaway is now closed. Thank you for your interest!

Here at Lupus.net, we are celebrating Lupus Awareness Month this May by bringing attention to the voices of our community of lupus warriors. Join us in spreading awareness by sharing and connecting with others who also manage lupus! As part of Awareness Month, we're launching a new summer skin safety giveaway!

Exposure to the sun and other sources of ultraviolet (UV) rays can trigger flares in people with lupus who experience photosensitivity. Between 50 and 80 percent of people with lupus experience sun sensitivity, which can cause rashes, fever, fatigue, and joint pain. Taking steps to protect yourself from the sun is a summertime essential!
