We put supermarket sun creams to the test to see how well they perform 🌞🧴 (contains affiliate links)
With the recent scorching hot weather and the crazy heatwave in full swing, shoppers are bound to be frantically trying to snap up some sun lotion.
Tesco's Soleil Fragrance Free Sun Protection Lotion At £3.20, Tesco's own brand sun cream certainly isn't as cheap as the likes of Aldi but how did it measure up? Well, given the size of the bottle and the sheer amount of options Tesco offers, it definitely had me thinking it would be a winner. A little goes a long way and you really don't need to use too much of it to get a good amount of coverage. This product left the skin feeling smooth and moisturised and it lasted well, too.Price: £3.20Aldi Lacura Moisturising Sun Lotion I wasn't blessed with skin that tans - I burn incredibly easily and sadly, erratically. I've spent many unfortunate summer holidays with random red blobs and blotches all over my arms and legs.
I only tried this on my forearms because, quite frankly, I'm not prepared to burn myself for my job, and I was impressed with the delightfully nostalgic scent. It instantly transported me to long, hot summer days as a child, without being too overpowering. As someone with pale skin, I always make sure to stock up on sun cream during the summer and usually opt for a bottle of SPF 50. I'd never tried Morrisons' own version before but was pleasantly surprised. Coming in at £3 for a 200ml bottle of SPF 50, I thought it was reasonably priced, especially when compared to some of the more expensive brands.
I think it's because I forget the UK sun can be just as strong as when you're abroad, especially recently with the heatwave. After using plenty of tan enhancing oils during trips abroad, I was after something that was safer and cheaper.
