We used car window tint film that reduces light and heat. We removed the inside part and then made a three piece template for the outside part. The film was then cut slightly larger than the template and applied to the inside of the outside part of the skylight. Since the skylight is a compound curve, you have to use multiple piece of film and you will have some overlap and some bubbles.

We then got some frosted window film and applied it to the outside of the inside part of the skylight, doing this hides any "flaws" in your film application (I had several).

The film can be purchase at Walmart in various darkness ratings so you can have just about any amount of light you want. The heat reduction is amazing, makes the bathroom much cooler.
