# Hooded Head Sun Shades The 'Shader' Face Shade Creates a Small Oasis from the Sun on the Beach By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2017-07-20 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/face-shade References: [odditymall](http://odditymall.com/shader-mini-face-shade-provider) & [kickstarter](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1540630962/shader-portable-shade-and-personal-sun-protection) The 'Shader' Face Shade is intended to be used at the beach or at the park in order to limit the amount of [UV rays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sun-day-app) that are able to reach your face. This enables you to lay out for longer periods without having to use towels or hats to keep your head and face cool. The shade comes in several color options and also features a cooler pack in the base that provides cooling relief to the back of your head for relief from the heat. The 'Shader' Face Shade can also be paired with an accompanying [solar panel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sunled-sunbooster) in order to soak up the power of the sun to charge your smartphone or other USB device while enjoying the coast. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.9/10 - Popularity: 100% | Activity: 100% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **UV Protection:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop advanced UV blocking technology for personal use. - **Portable Cooling:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create compact and efficient cooling systems for outdoor activities. - **Solar-powered Accessories:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Design solar panels integrated into everyday accessories for sustainable energy solutions. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Outdoor Recreation:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Integrate technology into outdoor gear to enhance comfort and convenience. - **Sun Protection Products:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop innovative solutions for protecting the skin from harmful UV rays. - **Power and Energy:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore ways to harness solar energy for various applications, including charging electronic devices. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Water-Friendly Sun Shades](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bote-hangout-shade.md) - [Marine-Grade Sun Shades](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-shibumi-shade.md) - [Stylistic Lightweight Beach Shades](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-swim-shady.md) - [Light-Equipped Outdoor Sun Covers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/led-starry-night-sun-shade.md) - [Device-Charging Sun Hats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ecoflow-power-hat.md) - [Cancer Foundation-Backed Face Shields](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sunforgettable.md) - [Space-Saving Camper Awnings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moonshade-xl.md) - [Slated Phenolic Board Sunshades](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ensombra.md) - [Sun-Shielding Sheet Masks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/naked-sunshield-peptide-patch.md)
