HIGHEST OFFICIAL CLASS
UPF 50+
A minimum of 98% of UVA and UVB radiation is blocked by the covered fabric.
TESTED AND PROVEN
Protection must inspire confidence. That's why every Handsome Skin glove is developed from one principle: the skin on your hands deserves protection.
From UPF performance to material safety: every choice is carefully made. Protection should not only be beautiful, but also reliable, tested, and well-thought-out.
PROVEN PROTECTION
Handsome Skin brings together a unique combination of UV protection, elegant design, and everyday comfort. The protection is an integral part of the fabric's construction: not a temporary finish, but independently tested performance, substantiated by the certifications below.

PROTECTION IS QUIET.
PROOF IS EVERYTHING.
PROTECTION IN THE MATERIAL
The UV protection is not a separate layer or temporary surface treatment. We work from the material itself, so that protection is an integral part of the textile.
This makes the fabric stable, comfortable, and suitable for everyday use, as long as it is carefully maintained and remains intact.
TWO CARRYING FEELINGS
MY SHIELD feels robust and protective. MY MINERAL is thin, flexible, and barely noticeable. Both lines operate under the same certified UPF 50+ protection standard.
Tightly woven with a protective feel. The UV protection is part of the dense fabric construction, without chemical coating. Certified UPF 50+ protection for daily moments when hand skin is exposed.
PROTECTION, SIMPLIFIED
Pull on and go. No waiting time, no cream that needs to soak in, and no reapplication while wearing.
This makes certified protection a natural part of manicures, driving, and every other recurring UV moment.
WHAT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW
Clear answers about UPF 50+, SGS, OEKO-TEX®, material safety and careful maintenance.
UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor and indicates how much UVA and UVB radiation passes through textile. UPF 50+ is the highest official classification and means that at least 98% is blocked.
SGS is an internationally recognized testing and inspection institute. It verifies material performance according to laboratory standards, thus measurably substantiating the protection class.
STANDARD 100 tests textiles for harmful substances. Product Class I is the most stringent class and is used for materials that must be suitable for direct and sensitive skin contact.
The UV protection is not a separate layer or after-treatment on the surface. It originates from the material itself and therefore does not form a temporary finish.
The materials used comply with OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100, Product Class I, and have been selected for direct skin contact. In cases of individual sensitivity, personal medical advice remains paramount.
It is the fabric that comes into direct contact with the skin. That is why material safety, in addition to UV performance, is a separate and important part of the quality assessment.
Hand wash the gloves only and air dry them naturally, preferably laid flat. Do not bleach, tumble dry, or iron.
