Solar Buddies Sunscreen Applicators

Solar Buddies are more than a sweet name! Indeed, le concept est simple!

This little item will be your best friend this Summer…

Designed by two mums, these refillable applicators allow you to use a sunscreen of your choice and help your children being more independent with it.

It is a pretty cool idée! You fill your applicator with some cream of your choice and because of its small size, you can pack it every time you go and out and about.

Kids can use it on their own

Exit the sticky hands at the beach with this cute roll-on sun cream applicator!

We tested this award-winning product for you and here are our thoughts!

Our Solar Buddies Applicator

We received our Solar Buddies Sunscreen Applicator a couple of weeks ago and it has proved very useful so far!

It is very cute and super child-friendly with its shape. Baba also loves the cool colours (you can go for a pink bottom for girls).

It is so easy to use it

It is light and super easy to use.

How To Use it

C’est très simple!

  • Remove the applicator head
  • Fill the bottle with the sunscreen of your choice
  • Close it again

Fill it with some sun cream

Et voilà!

And now, the big question is… Can children really use it on its own? Well, oui!

Baba is only 3 and yet he loves the independence of it.

Take it everywhere with you

Actually, he liked it so much he was even very eager to help us in the process of filling it up too!

So simple Baba can do it 🙂

More than 1 kid? Get several and label each one 🙂

Solar Buddies – Such A Clever Idea!

I can’t believe nobody thought about this before! Solar Buddies are such a good idée!

Not only it means your child can be more independent, but it is so handy for all the famille!

And he is very proud of himself too…

Initially designed as a product to help teachers apply sun protection to their pupils (with the ‘No Touch’ policy that many schools have these days), it is now a key summer item for families!

We absolutely love ours.

Refillable, (I wish the head was not so wobbly upside down when you fill it up though), it is so easy to use!

What We really Loved With Solar Buddies

  • it’s reusable and so child-friendly
  • the applicator provides my Baba with some independence (still, make sure kids apply it all over their body)
  • no more leak in your bag (you know, when your sun cream opens up…)
  • the roller head runs smoothly  and no more messy hands (no sandy hands either on the beach!)
  • you can also buy applicators in packs if you have more than one child
  • it’s so small you can pack it in any bag

Solar Buddies applicators have a cool design and many other fab features we love!

Solar Buddies Review – Le Verdict

I tell you now, our solar Buddies applicator is a real succés! We have been using it each time we were out and about and I can not wait to take it on our next trip to the beach.

I can do it when we are out too for a quick top up

It is super cool and easy to use.

More importantly, it is fabulous for Baba to stay protected while he is at the nursery.

I don’t know about you, but Baba is always on the move. Before Solar Buddies, it was sometimes a mission to make sure he was entirely protected.

It would take me forever to apply all the cream and make sure I did not miss a key body part. He can sometimes be in a rush to go back to play…

But we never had this problème with this super sweet gadget. Baba loves doing it himself and each application gives him some good protection.

It also teaches children about the importance to protect their skin from the sun!

But children can also do it on their own
