Superdrug's Solait Sun Spray SPF30, priced at just £5, has been awarded the coveted Which? 'Best Buy' title, impressing critics just as the Met Office has issued a heat warning for the UK. The consumer champion's judging panel found no drawbacks in their analysis, dubbing it 'a great choice for sun protection' for its advanced UVA and UVB protection.
Affordable Sun Protection for the Heatwave
With temperatures set to soar next week, sunscreen has become a non-negotiable skincare step. Superdrug's Solait range has long been popular for daily UV protection, offering easy spray formats and mess-free roll-ons for children. The Solait Sun Spray SPF30, available online and in stores, is said to deliver on its promise without leaving a sticky feeling, with users describing it as 'non greasy' and 'fast absorbing.'
High Recommendation Rate from Shoppers
The sunscreen holds an impressive 93 percent recommendation rate from multiple shoppers. One five-star review read: 'As a GOBE ambassador I received this product from the Superdrug Employee Community in exchange for my honest feedback. The solait sun cream range is exceptional, doesn't leave any white cast or have a strong smell. Keeps you protected from the sun all day!' Another fan wrote: 'This sun cream is my number 1 for summer! It's so lightweight and non greasy on your skin, really good for getting a nice tan but not burning! Smells lovely and so easy to apply too.'
A third reviewer remarked: 'As someone with a paler complexion making sure I don't burn is essential. This solait cream gives you that guaranteed protection (5 stars UVA rays rating) whilst smelling nice and leaving none of that sticky residue.'
Mixed Reviews but Overall Praise
Not all feedback was positive; some took issue with the nozzle spray design and thickness of the formula. A two-star review stated: 'Very thick when applying it.' However, another five-star review countered: 'I got this product to try and leave my honest experience about it. I have it and just love this sun spray. It really lightweight, makeup friendly and more importantly after spraying on face doesn't leaves any white cast on face. I highly recommend this product.'
Additional Options in the Solait Range
For those preferring higher protection, the Solait Sun Spray also comes in SPF50 for £5. A new addition is the Solait Scalp and Hair Spray, also £5, which offers a transparent mist with no heavy feeling on the skin. Superdrug's Which? recommended Solait Sun Spray SPF30 (200ml) and the full Solait range are available online and in store now.
