Consumer Reports Health has tested spray-on sunscreens —and has named four products that earned top overall scores.

Target’s Up & Up Sport Continuous SPF 30 was named a CR “Best Buy.” The other three top performers were Walgreens Sport Continuous SPF 50, Banana Boat Sport Performance Continuous SPF 30 and Aveeno Continuous Protection SPF 50.

According to CR, these products provided “Very Good UVA protection and Excellent UVB protection and met their SPF claim even after treated skin was soaked in water for 80 minutes.”

Consumer Reports Health also evaluated how the sunscreens smelled, felt, and absorbed into the skin. Those tests were performed by Consumer Reports’ trained sensory panelists. Overall, the top four performing sunscreens had a slight or moderately intense floral or citrus scent and left little residue on the skin, according to the publication.
