We can count on you to do the work!
thanks for watching!
I have the mist and chardonnay oil and they WORK (for me). Love the smells, quick-drying, and no bad/irritating effects! I guess it varies per person. Appreciate your reviews!
For me it’s such a warm sensation that a product brought up old memories to the present especially happy ones 😊❤.
I had no idea you grew up in SC! I grew up in Greenville! ❤
I have been using the Vacation mineral sunscreen lotion on my body and the Shake, Shake, mineral milk spf50 for face. I’m very sensitive to chemical sunscreens so I’ve been so happy with my choices this summer. Try the mineral milk for your face. No stinging or burning of eyes! I don’t see that face sunscreen in your collection today. It’s my new favorite! So much lighter weight and no cast. Sure beats my Cereve mineral for faces.
I love that traditional smell of coconut and suntan lotion, and sunscreen. It takes me back to childhood And good memories picnicking at the lake with family.❤
Coppertone, Bain de Soleil, it’s the smell of summer.
The Vacation gelee is supposed to be a replica of the old Bain de Soleil we all used back in the day, which admittedly I loved.
Yay! That was my favorite!
My favorite, too! I loved their ads in Seventeen magazine.
I loved Ban de Soleil! I think it was spf2.😂😂😂 I did mend my ways!
I have bad news for y’all. It has a similar texture but it does not have the smell at all. 😢 Don’t buy it if that’s what you were hoping for.
Another life lost due to misdiagnosis of Melanoma. A friend of mine, who is black, told me her brother had a place on his leg from years ago. He went to his doctor and was told “black people can’t get skin cancer”. My friend, his sister, told him to go to a big hospital an hour away and see a Dermatologist. Sadly, low and behold this doctor biopsied the huge place on his leg (grew really big over time) and it came back Melanoma, but had already metastasized throughout his body. He died last week and was 39 years old.
I am so sorry to hear this, melanoma is awful
This is why all races need sunscreen because anyone can get skin cancer
Shocking… 😢
@@MatMat-qi2rd Certainly is. I am wondering if this was an old doctor who back in the day didn’t know any better. I told her about Dr. Dray’s channel and how she emphasizes people of all color can get skin cancer. I don’t know, but so, so sad and told my friend I hope she was wearing sunscreen every day since she works in a room with lots of windows and sunshine. Another professional advice from Dr. Dray. Saves lives.
The vacation fragrance (like perfume bottle) is so yummy, I spray it every time I go to ulta.
Ulta has all the vacation products on sale for 30% off until Saturday
Good to know. Thank you.
I think the oil sunscreens are pulling in a group of people that probably don’t regularly use sunscreens daily and are getting them for the nostalgia or pool/beach time where the shiny oil look could be a plus. I am a former sun worshiper so for me this brand is all about nostalgia . For that reason l did briefly consider the oils, but I know the second I put them on I would’ve just been laying out in the sun all day, and pulled back into my old habits which kind of defeats the purpose. (Sunscreen oill=gateway drug for sunbathing for me😊)I did pick up the shake shake shake mineral face, and also their perfumes which are really nice.
Yes I know the younger girls want to be all glowing especially on their legs and arms that’s probably how it is selling so well
When I was a teenager in the 1970s, we used to apply Johnson’s Baby Oil to get a tan. I could never last more than 5 minutes because I got too hot and my skin does not tan, just burns. However, my friend and her sister would bake in the sun for hours with the baby oil.
The wafting coconut scent of Hawaiian Tropic Tanning Oil. The iconic scent of my childhood summers at the beach and poolside. That’s nostalgic.😌
Yes….the attraction is nostalgia.
I’m obsessed with that type of scent ❤so pleasant
For me it is Coppertone! I use it on my body for the memories.
So sorry you had such an unpleasant experience with those sunscreens!! Thanks for taking one for the team!! You’re the best!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰
I was so worried about this review since the Vacation brand is much more about the “vibes” and scents than sheer practicality. But, alas Dr. Dray was fair and honest which I should have expected. Vacation is probably my favorite SPF brand for body products…they are just so nostalgic in packaging and scent plus are very fun to use. However, every time I see the Classic Whip used on the face it makes me cringe lol. It’s amazing for the body but way too greasy for the face. Also, I believe the Mineral SPF is fragrance free. Thanks for another great review!
A little anecdotal review on the Vacation oils. I tried both the Baby Oil one and the Chardonnay Oil. I took them with me on a Caribbean cruise. Let me just say, I do NOT burn easily. I have a medium skin tone and these products FAILED me miserably. I only used them on my body. My skin looked lobster-like after 3 hours and this was after many re-applications. I basically had NO sunscreen on…only oil.
Suffice it to say, on the 2nd day of the cruise, I was in the ship’s drugstore area purchasing a REAL sunscreen!!
They smell wonderful, though, and I ended up using them for just a moisturizing oil straight out of the shower.
Loving the sunscreen content Dr. Dray!! You’re such a blessing to the skincare community <3
The smell of Hawaiian Tropic oil takes me back to the 70s. But if I’m on the beach and I catch a smell of original Coppertone….that takes me back, as well. Coppertone original smells like no other suntan lotion. Ahh, youth.
I wish they made a perfume that smells like the original Coppertone .I would buy it! Lol!! 😊
Tinted Australian Gold mineral spf 50 is my new holy grail. This is IT! The label calls it a BB cream sunscreen, and does have that same velvety feel. Stays on until you wash it off with soap. Matte finish. Not greasy. No scent. Comes in three tints. I’m seriously in ❤️ love.
Totally agree on Australian Gold. It is perfect for days in excess of 100 degrees. It doesn’t slide off in the heat and makes my skin more matte.
@DavisDoodle It’s just what I need in our NC heat and humidity. I hope Australian Gold will come out with more inclusive shades so more people can enjoy this sunscreen. 😊
“chalk on chalk” 😂😂😂 dr dray is so funny
