Good protection but oily
This is a good sunblock. Perfect for a day outdoors, beach,hiking,whatever it may be. This does provide good sun protection and has a nice scent, however it stays very oily on my skin. While it is a good product, I won't be buying again just due to the lack of dry down.

Beach day must-have for ultimate sun defense 🩵
This sunscreen is my go-to for beach days and outdoor plans! It’s lightweight, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t leave that greasy or sticky feeling. I love how it holds up even when I’m swimming or sweating — true to its “water + sun protection” name. It gives me peace of mind knowing my skin is protected while still feeling comfortable all day.

Love this!
Goes on very easy and coverage is amazing. Lasts long even in the water and no need to keep applying after a quick dip in the water. Safe and protects you from burning.

Perfect sunscreen for beach
I bought this sunscreen when I was going to the ocean, and I came back with a nice tan instead of sunburned skin. I think that’s thanks to this sunscreen.

Great for the beach!
I like this spray if I'm going to be at the beach or having a pool day. It feels a little greasy for everyday wear (I prefer the Neutrogena dry touch for everyday). The spray makes it easy to reapply. I have fair skin and like all Neutrogena sunscreens this has great Sun protection.

Light, effective, and easy to use — perfect sun pr
Neutrogena Beach Defense SPF 30 is a summer must-have! The spray has a lightweight, non-greasy texture that absorbs quickly without leaving a sticky residue. The scent is fresh and subtle — not overpowering like many sunscreens. I love the bright yellow packaging — it’s easy to spot in a beach bag and the spray nozzle works smoothly. Most importantly, it gives reliable sun protection even during long hours outdoors or at the beach. Water-resistant and effective

Don’t burn
Lightweight, invisible finish: Users consistently praise the texture—feels like “nothing on my skin,” absorbs quickly, leaves no white cast, and blends invisibly even on deeper skin tones.

Perfect but have to reapply
Its the kids sunscreen same brand. Scent is nice and not choking. Glides one good and feels like a good sunscreen. Definitely have to reapply after going out of the water. I got a sunburn but wasn’t horrible.

Ok sunscreen but greasy
The scent is good doesn’t smell like chemicals. However this is a bit greasy on the skin. It is almost waterproof because for removing you need to remove with soap and water for the residue to come off. I don’t think I would repurchase and the greasy feel make its feel heavy on skin.

The best for long exposure in the sun.
This product is great. I have fair skin, redheaded children. This was the only sunscreen I used when they were little. It gives great coverage. It doesn't leave a sticky film.

Provides great sun protection without a greasy fee
This sunscreen spray applied evenly and dried without a greasy feel, which I really appreciated. It's water-resistant and convenient to use, especially at the beach or pool. However, the lower SPF 30 meant I had to reapply often to stay protected, which was a bit of a hassle. Great texture and performance overall, but I'd opt for a higher SPF next time.
