Great scent

Good spf rating for those sunny beach days, but the thing to note is the scent! It has one of those great beachy smells without being too overpowering like other brands

Great sunburn protection.

Great sun protection! Light weight and fast drying on skin. Went on vacation to Santorini and came home with a nice tan and never burned. Love this product!

Lightweight, non-greasy SPF 70 spray with easy app

Neutrogena Beach Defence Water + Sun Protection Sunscreen Spray SPF 70 smells light and fresh not overpowering. Packaging is a convenient spray bottle that covers evenly and is easy to reapply on the go. Ingredients include broad-spectrum UV filters that offer strong sun protection. Texture feels watery and lightweight, absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy residue. Sun protection is excellent for long beach days. Price is fair for the SPF and convenience. My skin feels protected and comfortable even in intense sun. I love it personally finished a bottle and brought another one

Love this sunscreen

Loved this sunscreen, it's so easy to use and get coverage in hard to reach places. We love that it's a high spf and we are never worried about a sunburn when using this. Scent is nice and we enjoyed using this. Also used on our toddler too and worked great!

Ok buy

This spray on sunscreen is a classic for a reason. The spray spreads evenly on the skin and does require some rubbing in. The scent is similar to most sunscreens on the market. Be aware this is not a mineral sunscreen so there are other chemicals in the product.

Easy to go effective sun spray

I used this beach defense spary for my beach vacation. When I applied it , it felt very oily and sticky but then it got absorbed and added a layer to my skin. I was surprised by the results. I didn’t get any tanning after being in sun for whole day. It is very easy to apply, the scent is good and worth it

Use with caution

Smell was great and it was easy to use. However my daughter that seldom burns easily used this and got a severe sunburn. Possibly coincidentally and she had some sort of fail while using? (It washed off easily?) But we are too scared to try a second rime!

Arrived expired. Super annoying since this is the type of incompetence that I was trying to avoid with Amazon. Probably won’t buy skincare at target again.

Neutrogena Beach Defense to Stop the Burn

Whenever I am heading out to the pool or packing for a vacation, the Neutrogena Beach Defense sunscreen spray is always in my bag. It sprays on evenly and quickly - just a few quick sprays and you are ready to go. I love knowing I am protecting my skin from harmful UVA and UVB rays. Plus, it is water resistant up to 80 minutes. It makes all the difference for not burning while enjoying the sun ☀️

Smells amazing! I get hives (?) when I’m out in the sun and this is the ONLY sunscreen that works for me. The yellow can is superior!

Great option for the price!

This sprayed on clear and did the job it’s supposed to! I do like the scent and I think that’s probably my favorite part about this. The sun protection was like any other regular spray sunscreen if you reapply every two hours. It had a nice and even spray. The ingredients also didn’t irritate my skin like some do.

Expired product - only allowed in person returns

Received from Target with expired or soon-to-expire date. Unable to return unless in person. Unable to use the “fix it” option either. Will never purchase an item like this - with an expiration date - from Target online again. Target doesn’t value your time wasted on in-store (not even drive up return was allowed) returns.

Works great! Absorbs well & doesn't irritate!

I have very fair, sensitive skin, so I am always very careful about what sunscreen I use. I have been on the beach and in the pool in South Florida and this has provided excellent protection. It absorbs well and stays on in the water. I love the spray on application. It's kept me from getting burnt and hasn't irritated my skin or scent-related allergies.
