New at Mercadona in Mallorca: Deliplus Facial Sun Spray SPF 50 for €6

Easy to apply, no greasy film: Deliplus brings a facial sun spray to the island

On a mild morning in Palma, when the bus rattles past the Passeig Marítim and the voices of market sellers float out from the street, it’s noticeable how many people now carry sunscreen not just in their suitcase but in their daily routine. Mercadona now has a product on the shelf that matches this rhythm: a Deliplus facial sun spray, 75 ml, with SPF 50 for around €6.

What it does — short and practical

The spray offers broad-spectrum protection against UVA and UVB rays, is described by the manufacturer as water-resistant, and contains nurturing ingredients that provide moisture to the skin. It is said to absorb quickly and leave a dry skin feel — so not the sticky, slightly gritty sensation many know from the beach bag. The bottle is handy enough for a backpack or beach bag, ideal for short breaks between market visits in Santa Catalina or a walk along Playa de Palma.

How to use it sensibly

When spraying, the manufacturer recommends holding it about 15 centimeters from the face. After contact with water, heavy sweating, or drying with a towel, it should be reapplied to renew protection. In practice, a proven approach is: spray briefly, gently rub in with the fingertips, especially around the nose and forehead — this spreads the protective layer more evenly without wasting large amounts of product.

Why this is good for Mallorca

The island comes with plenty of sun, even on days with a few clouds. Dermatologists' recommendations to wear facial protection daily are especially relevant here: UVA rays penetrate deeply and can promote skin aging, while UVB causes sunburn. For people who spend a lot of time outdoors — construction workers, delivery drivers, market visitors or cyclists on the Via de Cintura — a handy spray with a high SPF is a practical addition to skin care. The price also makes the product accessible to many; in a season with frequent short outings, that is practical.

Everyday scene

You can see it now: in front of the café on Plaça Major someone sprays their face briefly, a couple on a bike stops at the zebra crossing and no one has to perform complicated steps anymore. It’s a small, almost unspectacular moment — but one that makes a day in Mallorca a bit safer. The combination of quick application and a pleasant finish helps move sunscreen from an exception into a routine.

Looking ahead

An affordable, lightweight product alone does not solve all issues around skin health. But it lowers the barrier to using sun care regularly. So if on your next market trip you put a 75 ml bottle of Deliplus for about €6 into the shopping cart at Mercadona, you’ll have a practical option to enjoy the sun in Mallorca a little more relaxed — whether buying a bandage on Calle Sant Miquel or sitting by the sea.

Tip: After spraying, spread briefly with the fingertips and reapply after long swims or heavy sweating.
