All I would add is to look for spf rating on headgear. I have a scarf, do-rag thing from Voler with a 50 spf rating. They make arm and leg covers too. I didn't always wear stuff under my helmet, but I just finished treatment for pre-cancer spots on my bald head, so, now I will always wear a cycling cap or head cover. I find the wicking type material feels cooler as it wicks the sweat away. It also keeps sweat out of my eyes.
