Neutrogena Beach Defence is my go to sunscreen for maximum sun protection. With 70 SPF it gives great coverage without having to reapply often. It is even less and has a creamy feel going on. The bottle is an attractive yellow so easily spotted in your beach bag. The lotion that is thin when coming out of the bottle so you don’t need much.
One of the best sunscreens and smells great!

Neutrogena Beach Defense provides strong, broad-spectrum sun protection that’s perfect for long days outdoors. I love that it feels lightweight, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t leave a greasy or sticky residue. It holds up well during water activities and stays effective even when I’m sweating. For an affordable sunscreen that really works, this has become a go-to in my summer routine.

The spray products are oxybenzone- and octinoxate-free, meaning they avoid the primary reef-harming chemicals. Great product! 10 out of 10!

Tried and true brand, sent is nice and it covers well. Living in Florida I can say I have not gotten burned when using the sunblock. Good for the price and easily accessible, but definitely not green.

Absolutely love the application of this sunscreen. It’s not too thick or greasy which makes reapplication easier. It has a nice scent, not so much of a chemical scent. One of my top picks for summer.

It does have the sunscreen sent, but it is very effective. It works, and it is waterproofing at last a couple hours in the sun. You have to reapply. Every couple hours of packaging is very manageable. It’s easy to put on and apply. The texture is very thick but creamy and absorbs very quick in the ingredients are very minimal.

My family enjoys the scent and ingredients of this sunscreen, especially when out playing in the pool. The texture isn't too greasy and works well preventing sunburns. The packaging also makes it easy for the kids to use themselves.
Love everything about it but the scent

Emily J - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
Very easy to apply, lightweight. Used it on the whole family on a 2-week vacation and nobody burned. Only thing I dislike is the scent. It's a weird sort of rubbery floral. I wish it were unscented like the Bondi Sands brand sunscreen which is a similar formula, or a fresh scent like the Neutrogena Hydro Boost water gel lotion in the blue tube.
Goes on as easily as lotion

This is my favorite sunscreen, especially for wiggly little ones. High SPF, but the best feature for me is the consistency, it goes on easily like a lotion so you can rub it in quickly and easily and it feels light on your skin. It also has a great beachy scent. I love the spray and stick for reapplication as well.
Best sunscreen I've used

ShadowCat - 2 months ago
This is the best sunscreen I've used! I'm not a huge fan of the scent, but that's a minor thing when compared to how well it works to protect my skin from the sun. I've worn this stuff and been outside for hours, and never burned. It rubs in and absorbs very well, too. If you're sensitive to fragrance, then this probably wouldn't be good for you, because the scent is very strong. But if fragrance/scent is okay for you, then I highly recommend!
Absolutely a fave!

I love this sunscreen for all of our family trips to the beach! It doesn’t make you feel sticky after using like some of the other sunscreens. I also love the lock on the packaging it’s so convenient!
