Let customers speak for us
Great gift! We have a convertible and my beautiful wife was always dousing sunscreen on her arms before she got this gift. Now she looks stylish and is protected.
I love my new arm shades! They are comfortable and shade my arms nicely from the California sun. I also use them in the gym to protect my arms. Stylish and useful!
I have been wanting them since before they were officially out. The pink lemonade are soooo frikken cute! really well made & just are the cutest! Protecting your skin while being fashionable.
Love the material very comfortable and beautiful color
Absolution stunning design and comfortable! I love the extra toggle for sizing!
Everything I have purchased from Nicole (jewelry and now gloves) has been superb!! The fabric of these gloves is amazing! The bungee to keep them up is perfect - never too tight or too loose. The only regret I have is not having bought them sooner!!
I bought a rose pair for myself and one for my mom. I use them every day while driving and also while walking my pup. I loved them so much I just purchased the black ones for a fall/winter look. Love how loose and comfy they feel yet secure so they don’t fall down. Looking forward to seeing what new sun products come out next!
Love these so much! So light and loving on my skin!
As a pre-melanoma survivor, I take shielding my skin from harmful UV rays very seriously! However, I am very active outdoors and do not want to live prohibited. Thanks to my hello shade sleeves, I can continue my outdoor activities while aesthetically looking fashionable and playing safe!
I adore these sleeves. I have tried several and these really stand out to the point that I'm writing a review about them (rare for me). Firstly, the material feels really luxe. I would say nicer than on photos. Secondly, they're not tight, so they're easy to slip on and off in the car. I use tight ones for tennis, but they're so hard to put on and take off, that I rarely used them for driving. These are my driving sleeves and I really love them. Comfortable, easy to use, and feel really chic on. Thank you!
Obsessed with my Rose All Day sleeves! They’re comfy, cute, and actually stay put, no sliding, no overheating. It’s like sun protection, but make it fashion. 10/10 would recommend for anyone who wants to glow and protect. ☀️💕
This is the cutest solution to my sun rash problem i ever came across. I often get rashes on the back of my hands in the summer from too much sun exposure, and this is especially difficult when I have to drive long distance and my left hand is just baking in the sun holding the steering wheel. I have bought many sun sleeves before and they are either ugly or so cheaply made with materials that make me sweaty. These one from Hello Shade are cute, stylish, and the material is quality and the sleeves are well made. I’m very happy with them!
I am 23 and have already started running into sun damage issues :( I met Nicole at and event and she shared with me her story and introduced to me sleeves, I never until my skin cancer scare really considered the sever damage the sun can have, now along with daily sunscreen I use these sleeves on all my drives to keep my arms protected!! honestly SO recommend the black it goes with absolutely everything (especially if you wear a lot of black and neutrals like me hahaha)
I met the wonderful creator of Hello Shade at a lovely little market by happenstance. She was super sweet and informative! I bought my set that night. I got the black ones so they go with all my clothes, including my work uniform. Even though they are black they breathe so well and don't get too hot. A slight breeze across the fabric immediately cools it down. They're relatively easy to put on and adjust by yourself. 100% worth it. Thank you so much!
