Always Getting Sunburnt On The Beach? This Is The Bikini You Need To Buy

The bikini every Irish girl needs!

If you’re constantly facing a battle between being sunburnt and knowing when to top up the suncream, this could be the bikini for you.

A French company, Spinali Design, has invented a bikini that tells you when you need to apply suncream, and when you need to head in for some shade.

So how does the smart bikini work?

The swimsuit has a small detachable waterproof UV sensor that attaches to the fabric. When the sensor heats up, a notification is then sent to the sunbather’s smartphone app alerting them to when it’s time to top-up.

Made to order, the protection swimwear also comes in a connected towel, with its own UV sensor.

Proof that pain doesn’t have to mean beauty.
