Vacation Inc.

We would like to thank Kaitlin Clapinski and the good people at the prestigious Byrdie Corporation for their exceptional coverage of our latest olfactory sensation: Vacation® Royal Pine Deluxe. In an article posted this week, they praised this remarkable pine-scented candle — a labor of love spanning over four decades — with such kind remarks as, “the brand’s signature three-pine blend transforms any room into a winter wonderland” and "Simply put, the Royal Pine Deluxe Candle smells like the holiday season." We humbly attribute these sentiments to our relentless exploration of the world’s highest forests to unearth the most fragrant pine-scented accords bestowed by nature. The journey from this candle’s serendipitous inception to its grand unveiling truly is a result of the tireless dedication and exceptional craftsmanship of our talented perfumers, innovative designers, and our entire team’s unwavering commitment to leisure-enhancement — regardless of season. Each component, from our Signature Three Pine Blend to the elegantly foiled glass and gift box, has been carefully curated to evoke an unparalleled leisure experience for even the coldest of seasons. We extend our warmest gratitude to every member of the Vacation® Incorporated Winter Division for your annual pine-scented contributions. These efforts have not only led to the creation of the Royal Pine Deluxe Candle but have also sparked a beloved seasonal company tradition here at Vacation®. A great exchange of pine, hot cocoa, and jovial office banter that we will surely cherish for many more years to come. https://lnkd.in/eERurt8n

It is our tremendous honor to announce that not only one, but two, of our leisure-enhancing sunscreens have been selected as winners of the prestigious Allure Magazine Best of Beauty 2024 awards. Across the Clean Category, our revolutionary Shake Shake SPF 50 Mineral Milk won “Best Clean Skin Care.” Most notably, Allure’s shopping director Shanna Shipin praised Shake Shake’s formula as “unbeatably blendable” on account of its innovative “shakerball” packaging. After testing the product firsthand, Shanna commended Shake Shake’s ability to maintain its excellence through both “peak beach days in Los Angeles” and even the “humidity in New York City” — a coast-to-coast trial that we heartily commend her for undertaking. As for the Body Category, we’re pleased to share that our iconic Baby Oil SPF 30 won “Best Chemical Oil Sunscreen.” Allure editor Jennet Jusu recalled her need for a sunscreen that sinks in quickly for her dry skin, and noted that Baby Oil delivered “just that while leaving behind a pretty sheen.” A glowing remark for the product we proudly developed to provide “The Ultimate Shine.” We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to all the editors at Allure for this prestigious recognition as well as all Vacation Inc. staff and honorary employees from around the world for their continued dedication, ingenuity, commitment and unwavering passion for the development and advancement of the leisure based SPF protection category world wide. We are honored. 🤝 https://lnkd.in/ePuPDK2v

It’s with immense pride that we can unveil a project that has been an ongoing labor of passion and innovation for all of us here at Vacation Inc. The Orange Gelée Revival Project.

Many years ago, an iconic suncare product known as "Orange Gelée” graced the world, capturing the minds and hearts of leisure enthusiasts and sunscreen connoisseurs worldwide. Its reign was legendary, and by the 1970s, it had become the undisputed staple of summer. But much to the dismay of thousands worldwide, the iconic sunscreen was officially discontinued in 2019. In the wake of its departure, a groundswell of nostalgia and fervent devotion emerged as over 10,000 signatures on Change .org echoed a collective plea for its return. And now, today, Vacation® is thrilled to announce the revival of this sun-soaked legend. That’s right, Orange Gelée is coming back — and it’s going to be better than ever. Introducing the Orange Gelée Revival Project. A joint initiative between Vacation® and Orange Gelée fans to bring back a revived version of the beloved and discontinued Orange Gelée suncare product by the summer of 2024. With a panel of 10 of the country’s most dedicated Orange Gelée superfans joined by leading beauty industry experts, we’re bringing back a sunscreen that not only feels inline with the original, but aligns seamlessly with modern beauty standards. Our sincerest gratitude extends to all members of the Orange Gelée Advisory Board and the Vacation® Product Development Panel. Your collective brilliance and thirst for innovation has certainly left an indelible mark on the leisure-sunscreen industry. As we eagerly anticipate the re-release of this product in the summer of 2024, we raise our glasses and sunscreens for a toast to the remarkable resurgence of the esteemed Orange Gelée. Thank you all once again and please visit www.orangegelee.com for further information about this exciting endeavor.
