Sun safety and global wellness: Juillet Juillet’s role in World Health Day

A story of prevention, innovation, and the power of skin protection for all

Each year on April 7, the world pauses to celebrate World Health Day. An occasion dedicated to global health awareness and the promotion of well-being for everyone, everywhere. While the themes of this day vary from year to year, the message remains consistent: health is a universal right, and preventive care is the foundation of a better future.

In this spirit, some brands go beyond trends and seasonal collections to build a mission rooted in public health. Juillet Juillet is one of them. Created by a Doctor in Pharmacy with a deep commitment to sun protection and cancer prevention, the brand is more than a label, it is a movement.

This is the story of a brand born from personal experience, scientific conviction, and the belief that fashion can serve a far greater purpose.

Where it all began: a personal and professional mission

The origin of Juillet Juillet lies in a moment of clarity, one that came not in a lab or boardroom, but under the Caribbean sun. Raised in a region where sunshine is abundant and UV exposure is a daily reality, the founder of Juillet Juillet witnessed firsthand the effects of prolonged sun exposure on the skin: sunburns, premature aging, and over time, an increased risk of skin cancer.

Later, through professional experience as a pharmacist, this personal awareness was reinforced by medical data: skin cancer is now the most common type of cancer worldwide, but also one of the most preventable. These two realities, emotional and scientific, gave rise to an idea: to create a brand that would offer not just clothing, but real protection.

From this idea, Juillet Juillet was born. Its purpose is clear: to design elegant, high-quality UPF 50+ swimwear that empowers people to enjoy the sun safely.

The science behind every stitch

Unlike conventional swimwear, each Juillet Juillet piece is designed to serve as a true barrier against ultraviolet radiation. The technical fabrics used in the collections are selected for their certified UPF 50+ properties, meaning they block over 98% of UV rays. This is achieved through a combination of tightly woven structures, high-performance fibers, and finishes that maintain their integrity even after contact with salt, chlorine, and repeated washing.

More than just a label, the UPF certification behind every item in the Juillet Juillet catalog reflects a commitment to safety backed by science. In contrast to sunscreen, which requires regular reapplication, anti-UV swimsuits offer lasting protection wherever they cover the body, especially on areas that are difficult to reach with cream, like the shoulders, back, or neckline.

The long sleeve swimsuits, one-piece suits, and UPF accessories are not only stylish and flattering, they are part of a preventive approach to skin health.

A commitment beyond product

What sets Juillet Juillet apart is not only what it sells, but what it advocates. From its beginnings, the brand has used its platform to educate its community about the risks of UV exposure and the importance of sun protection as a daily practice, not just a beach-day concern.

Through its blog articles, social media presence, and real-life testimonials, the brand raises awareness on topics ranging from skin cancer prevention to the science of UPF clothing, including how to protect children’s delicate skin and how to identify dangerous sun myths.

This educational approach is not about fear, it’s about empowerment. Knowing how to protect your skin is a form of self-care. Teaching your children to embrace UPF clothing is a gift for their long-term health. And choosing a swimsuit that offers more than just style is a statement of values.

Aligning with World Health Day: fashion as preventive medicine

Every year, World Health Day reminds us that global wellness starts with small, daily choices. Preventing disease doesn’t always require hospitals or high-tech solutions, it can begin with what you wear, how you move through the world, and how you protect your body from known risks.

Juillet Juillet's mission aligns perfectly with this vision. The brand’s goal is not simply to grow its product line or increase seasonal sales. It’s to shift habits and create a culture of prevention, where sun safety is not an afterthought, but an intuitive part of our daily lives.

From its roots in pharmaceutical expertise to its commitment to innovation and education, Juillet Juillet is actively contributing to a larger conversation about health. As climate change accelerates and UV exposure becomes more intense across the globe, this kind of initiative becomes even more vital.

By encouraging people to adopt UPF 50+ swimwear and integrate it into their lifestyle, the brand is doing more than protecting skin, it’s participating in the public health efforts that World Health Day seeks to inspire.

A future built on health and purpose

Looking forward, Juillet Juillet aims to expand its reach, not just geographically, but socially. The brand is exploring ways to extend its collections to new audiences, reinforce its environmental responsibility, and deepen its contribution to skin cancer awareness through partnerships, campaigns, and community events.

But the core mission remains unchanged: to protect. To inform. And to do so with intention and style.

By choosing Juillet Juillet maillots de bain, customers are not just selecting a piece of clothing. They are investing in a preventive gesture, one that protects their skin, sets an example for others, and contributes to a greater cause.

Joining the movement: what you can do

World Health Day is not only a celebration, but also a call to action. Everyone has a role to play, and small choices can have big ripple effects.

You can start by educating yourself and your family about UV risks. You can replace your swimwear with UPF 50+ options that offer true protection. You can support brands whose values align with your own, and spread the word about the importance of skin safety to your circle.

At Juillet Juillet, we believe that fashion can be a force for good, and that every summer day can be an opportunity to live beautifully, consciously, and with care.

Protect your skin. Support your health. Join the mission.
