Vacation Reviews

Best of Thingtesting4.5

Vacation earns strong reviews for making sunscreen genuinely enjoyable and effective, with lightweight formulas that blend cleanly, prevent burns, and deliver a nostalgic coconut-banana “summer” scent. Reviews also flag weaknesses: potent fragrance, small sizes that run out quickly, occasional packaging issues (leaky oil, finicky spray/whip mechanics), mixed experiences with mineral options and oil protection, and some users finding performance comparable to drugstore formulas.

  • Big fan of the vacation sunscreen oils! I’ve tried both the baby oil and the Chardonnay, I think I prefer the baby oil but it’s not water resistant. They are more expensive but worth it on vacation or when you want a special treat

  • Smells terrific and is a very thick lotion a bit of a white cast, but once it’s rubbed in a lot, it works. Sun wise like I’ve still gotten a sunburn while using this product and reapplied, but I’m not 100% sure if that’s the case. Thick enough to feel like you’ve had a decent amount on and can get in the water, but I feel like it comes off fairly quickly in the water and that’s how I burnt.

  • Vacation Classic SPF 50 is the sunscreen that actually makes you excited to apply SPF. The scent is everything — that iconic tropical, coconut-y fragrance that smells like a luxury resort and instantly puts you in vacation mode. The texture is creamy and smooth, not thick or greasy like so many SPFs, and it gives your skin this gorgeous luminous finish that works as a light coverage on its own. No white cast, no heavy residue — just glowy, protected skin that smells incredible all day. Sunscreen has never been this fun.

  • The Vacation x Pepsi Wild Cherry Lip Gel SPF 30 is such a fun and nostalgic lip product! It keeps my lips feeling soft, hydrated, and protected while adding a subtle glossy tint. The Wild Cherry Pepsi-inspired flavor is unique and playful without being overwhelming, and the SPF 30 protection is a huge bonus for everyday wear. I love tossing it in my bag for quick touch-ups, especially during sunny days when my lips need extra moisture and sun protection.
