Updated July 9, 2024: This article on the best sunscreens at Target was updated after another round of editor testing and with more information on Target Circle Week deals happening now. Our editors are currently testing additional sunscreens available at Target for consideration in this guide.
No Target run is complete without coming home with a few extra items that weren’t on your list but you need all the same. For our editors, that’s checking out with one of the best Target sunscreens — many of which are on sale right now.
The retailer is rapidly expanding its SPF category — just this summer, Target welcomed Vacation’s cult-favorite sunscreens onto its shelves. Vacation is the latest up-and-coming brand that Target has ushered into its aisles; you can also shop face sunscreens from inclusive sunscreen lines like Black Girl Sunscreen. On top of these hidden gems, Target also carries a slew of bestselling drugstore beauty brands you know and love, like Neutrogena and Cerave, plus all-stars in the sun care category like Blue Lizard and Sun Bum.
So why buy sunscreen at Target? Beyond the mix of established players and up-and-coming brands (many of which are thanks to the retailer’s partnership with Ulta), you’ll get the worry-free insurance that you can return anything that doesn’t meet your standards within 90 days of purchasing it — even if you’ve opened it up. This is key for those who need sunscreen for sensitive skin or SPF for acne-prone skin, where selecting a formula that works with your skin is essential.
Another reason the bullseye is a great place to shop sunscreens: Through July 13, Target Circle Week is offering discounts on many of our favorite SPFs, so consider this your sign to head over to Target.com and start building your dream cart of deals. To access the sales, simply sign up to be a Target Circle member (it’s free to sign up!), which also gives you added perks like points for every purchase and special discounts for teachers and students.
