Another bonus is less waste - no more waste from squeezing too much sunscreen on your hands, the roller ball allows you to use every bit of your sunscreen, so no more waste.

They are reusable and small enough to pop in your bag for a day at the beach and are even suitable for hand luggage. The applicator is also a great sun safe teaching tool that allows your children to understand the importance of protecting their skin.

Sophie Hinchcliffe took to her Instagram Stories on Tuesday to reveal that she can't live without the Solar Buddies Sun Cream Applicator for kids - and we can see why. The applicator is perfect for children to take on days out, to school etc allowing easy re-application of sunscreen throughout the day. Laura and Kelli’s most memorable mistake came after they were approached by a potential health sector client who wanted to work with them but felt their brand wasn’t quite ‘right’. So when I found out about the Solar Buddies applicators which mean my older children can apply their sun lotion themselves; we literally became the talk of the school playground! Also, the less mess, less stressful application meaning the kids were able to apply their sun cream independently.

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. Like most parents, Charlene knows that leaving the house with SPF protection is a must - but some children might struggle with the cooling senses and refuse to wear the skincare essential. They came up with the idea for Solar Buddies, a no-mess applicator that would make suncream accidents a thing of the past. The task is essential, but tricky; as spray and squirty bottles can get messy and take several minutes to rub into their skin.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. We recommend that each Solar Buddy is only used by one person, even amongst siblings, for hygiene reasons.

I was very impressed with the quality, ease and mess-free applicator, that parents, teachers and children can all use. As the UK’s biggest paediatric first aid provider, Mini First Aid teach a lot of parents and children! She went on in her video: ''The handle is a really good size as well, so if your child has to put sunscreen on at school themselves, this is perfect to pop in their school bag.It really made a big difference to our day at the beach and we were only driven home by the strength of the sun getting a bit much and a tired boy from all the running around he had done. As parents, we wanted life to be that little bit easier when it came to applying sunscreen and designing and manufacturing this product was a life saver for us and we hope it helps you, even if it's just a little bit.
