Nostalgic Beach Legend
Orange Gelée by Vacation® is the kind of sunscreen that could make a Vice City kingpin ditch his leather for a day at the beach—smooth, slick, and with enough style to turn that Scarab 38 powerboat dream into a reality.Signature Style and Nostalgic VibesThis gel is all about the iconic orange look—rubs in clear on every skin tone, but leaves enough shine to make you look like a magazine ad from the French Riviera.

10/10, worth it!
Smells lovely, looks cool, great packaging and customer service! The tube key which allows you to get all the product out is perfect and it’s cool they add that. I’ve seen reviews say it’s not oily and others say it is, but it’s a sunscreen so it will be a little oily but it’s not a greasy oily paste that never goes away like other brands. Just use correctly if you over apply it will feel thick. This is also good for my sensitive skin, the white liquid sunscreens that stink, always burn my skin especially in the sun, but I’ve never had that with this product! The color dosent stain, transfer or show on skin. I’ve got great tans with no burn or dry skin using this product! 10/10 would buy again!

Outstanding and safe
This is the first time I have tried the orange gelee and I absolutely love it. Normally, I do not spend 20 dollars on a tube of lotion however I was looking for something to replace product by J&J that was discontinued. Having allergy and asthma triggered by smells I must be very careful so this was a gamble for me. First of all it did not trigger any allergic response whatsoever and had a very pleasant scent different but yet similar to the discontinued product. The lotion is absorbed very well by the skin leaving no greasy residue whatsoever. Granted there are times I prefer greasy like when tending to tomatoe garden because the ticks won’t adhere to oily skin. In such cases I can put some baby oil on top of this product. The next product I plan on trying is the baby oil spf 30 by vacation. If the smell is good and the ticks stay away, I’m happy. This is spf 30 and water resistant for 80 minutes. If you loved the discontinued product, you’ll love this one because it goes on clean and does it job. Love this product …..worth the extra money.

Smells amazing
Great smell and product works great but the can it comes in is temperamental! It is very hard to get the spray nozzle to work sometimes but otherwise good product

It's really the little things that bring big joy!
In the 80's I loved the old Nain de Soleil commercials. At the time, BDS was the best, most luxurious of Suntan products. I used it every day in the summer: it smelled heavenly and my skin was smooth and my tans were rich and dark. I was heartbroken when I could no longer find it!...and I SEARCHED. I mean, diligently. I found ONE. One tube on Ebay. It was a pretty penny, but worth it. This year, I started to look for a dupe....zove got the internet at my finger tips, right?! Imagine the sublime and delicious joy. The unmitigated glee of finding Vacation Orange Gelée?! It smells and looks like Bain de Soleil. I liked the old name...sounds chi chi poo poo, but hey, its orange, its gelée...I am SO not complaining! I even mixed half a tube in my after shower oil. I've gotten compliments on my "perfume." I just say, "thanks," because to explain would be a whole thing. I just ordered my third tube. Im loving the key that come with it, so I don't miss a drop of this nectar! I'm taking it to the Bahamas as it does have a higher SPF: 30 rather than the 4 it used to be. I can't wait to transform into my Bronze Goddess era! Thanks for this...it brings back memories of lazy days on the beaches with my friends, and the gorgeous tans we'd get!

Good oil
Packaging is hilariously cute - appreciate the car air freshener as well. The sunscreen itself is a nice spray oil you rub in - it gives shine and healthy looking moisturized skin but doesn’t stay greasy and the shine does fade if it’s too much for you. No glitter or mica flecks it’s just a nice oil spray and smells good - but not too strong the smell fades too and won’t mess with your perfume.

Love this sunscreen!
Love this sunscreen. Have used it every day on a one week beach vacation. Allows for great protection and nice bronzing! Super silky, smells amazing. Will definitely buy again anytime I’m purchasing sunscreen.

Try this and you'll never go back to anything else.
If I could give this 10 stars I would. I get it... It's pricey... But the smell and silkiness when it goes on screams luxury and pampering. Not only does it go on like a dream, it legit protects you from the sun while giving you that glow you always aimed for... Not just a brown tan... But a glow bronze tan. Worth every penny and thankfully I got 2 tubes during Prime days to hold me over.
