Suntanning is out, sun protection is in — just ask this AFLW star

The best athletes know that looking after your skin is non-negotiable.

For years, suntanning was just part of summer. But in 2025, we're shifting the narrative. Real confidence comes from embracing the active lifestyle, staying healthy and making the smartest choices — starting with sun protection.

LADbible, Cancer Council Australia, and the Australian Government have teamed up with AFLW superstar Chloe Molloy to transform how we approach sun exposure.

If you’re serious about performance — whether it’s on the field, in the gym, or simply in life — sun safety isn’t something you can skip. As Chloe says, “Protecting my skin is a non-negotiable.”

Athletes optimise everything — training, nutrition, recovery, so why would you leave skin protection out of the equation?

Chloe Molloy knows that spending time under the sun comes with the territory of her sport. But over time, she’s realised that taking care of her skin is just as crucial as any other aspect of her routine.

"Playing under the sun is part of the game, but keeping my skin safe is just as important as training hard. Real G.O.A.T.s know that sun safety is the key to staying in the game."

Suntanning is no longer the goal. A suntan is a visible reminder of skin damage that adds up over time. The true focus is on maintaining healthy, strong skin that stays protected for the long haul.

When you take care of your skin, you ensure it stays in top shape for the things that matter — whether that’s sport, relaxation, or everyday life.

UV damage builds up over time, causing premature aging and increasing the risk of skin cancer. And unlike a tough workout, sun damage can’t be recovered from quickly.

Sunscreen, a hat and covering up? That’s not extra — it’s part of the routine. Just like warming up or staying hydrated, it’s a habit that keeps Chloe at her best.

So, are you ready to play smarter?

Join Chloe Molloy and make sun safety an essential part of your routine all year round.
