While at the beach I reapplied our sun creams at regular intervals and loved the fact my hands were cream-free, each and every time. REFILLABLE APPLICATOR - this is an empty applicator that allows you to fill with a sunscreen of choice that suits your skin type.

Simply fill container with sunscreen of choice, screw the head back on, shake the contents towards the roller ball and apply to body. Solar Buddies is a sun safety teaching tool, although, we do advise that there is adult supervision to ensure even coverage. Solar Buddies Sunscreen Applicator has been specially designed to be used by children so that they can apply their sunscreen by themselves with as little mess as possible. We know sun safety is a top priority for parents, and it’s great to know that Solar Buddies are here to protect as well as help to educate your children about sun safety.It then dispenses the lotions via a sponge and roller-ball tip, so kids can easily cover their skin without making any mess. My daughter would have a meltdown every day at the prospect of applying sun cream but with this there is no fuss. Solar Buddies is a fun, innovative product that will help you and your kids make sure their skin is covered with sunscreen to protect them from harmful UV. With its sponge and roller ball combination, it makes for an easy application with less waste and less mess. The shape of the bottle is chunky so it is easier to grip, and with its sponge and rollerball partnership it allows for easy coverage with less mess and no waste due to its controlled flow.

The task is essential, but tricky; as spray and squirty bottles can get messy and take several minutes to rub into their skin. The Solar Buddies applicator can be filled with a sun cream of choice, and the roller ball smoothly applies to the skin to avoid greasy hands. When sunscreens get hot they become thinner than their original state, this means sprays and oils can become almost water like and this can sometimes result in leaking from the roller ball. But I think I’ve finally found the answer with an awesome child friendly sunscreen applicator in the form of Solar Buddies. I say proper, we have dipped our toes on New Year’s Day but this time it was a “swim shorts, bikini and sun cream at the ready” type of visit.I have taken to using it for myself too as it’s far easier and less messy, and love it so much that I have actually purchased a second (we were sent one of these to try out) so that the children have one each. Following several incidents where children were badly sunburned at school, the National Association of Schoolmasters Union of Women Teachers (NASUWT) union advised teachers to supervise suncream application rather than apply it themselves. Not only that, but because it is a roll-on applicator, it means less mess and no sticky hands or hands full of sand either. It was just a bit of a moment where we thought, let's have a little Google and see if there's anything about and there wasn't. But soon after their arrival the weather was favourable enough to put our Solar Buddies to the test.

Keep on top of applying sunscreen: Every two hours or if you have been in water, reapply as soon as you are back in the sun. Please Note – Parcels that are sent via Airmail may be be subject to additional taxes and customs charges.

Solar Buddies are an answer to no more sticky hands and will make beach days, or sun holidays abroad for that matter, a lot easier for families.
