Classic Whip Glow: Vacation Inc. Launches Radiant, Game-Changing Sunscreen with Luxe Appeal
In the ever-evolving beauty landscape, where innovation sought after by those within and outside of the biz, Vacation Inc. has once again made waves with the launch of Classic Whip Glow. This product is the next evolution of the brand's iconic, cult-favorite sunscreen that helped to put Vacation on the map.
The original Classic Whip delighted consumers and industry pros alike with its revolutionary “dessert-inspired” format, delightful scent, and stellar SPF protection, earning the brand a place among beauty industry darlings. Now, with a dash of Gold Shimmer, this new release takes things up a notch, delivering a glowy, luminous finish that further cements Vacation as a trailblazer in SPF.
Classic Whip Glow presents a unique opportunity to highlight how form meets function in a product that stands out both visually and in terms of efficacy.
Here's why this launch is one to watch:
The Product Breakdown: Beauty Meets Innovation
Classic Whip Glow delivers broad-spectrum SPF 30 protection with a luxurious twist. While the original version was beloved for its lightweight, hydrating feel, the addition of the Foam-Whipped Gold Shimmer takes the formula to an entirely new level. It's not just sunscreen—it's skincare and cosmetics, all in one. The addition of shimmer results in a finish that’s perfect for consumers who want to protect their skin while still rocking a healthy, sun-kissed gleam.
Key features include:
Broad Spectrum SPF 30 Protection: A reliable sunscreen shield for daily protection
Water-Resistant (80 minutes): Ideal for outdoor leisure, swimming, or high-sun exposure
Hawaii Reef Compliant Act 104: Meeting important environmental regulations
Authentic Tilt Valve Actuator: The unique actuator creates perfectly shaped mountains of foam, enhancing the luxurious user experience
Oxybenzone & Octinoxate Free: Safe for coral reefs, aligning with current eco-conscious consumer trends

Dermatologist and Allergy-Tested: Offering peace of mind for sensitive skin types
A Little Bit of Whimsy
The product’s signature foam-whipped gold shimmer is where the magic happens. This innovative formula is designed to apply evenly across all skin tones without leaving any unwanted residue or streaks. Vacation Inc.’s proprietary “Air-Whip” formula ensures the texture is light and airy, so it's easy to wear and stays comfortable even in the heat.
As beauty marketers, we understand that consumers are craving products that feel luxurious, while also provide lasting benefits. This lighter-than-air feel, combined with the added shimmer, makes Classic Whip Glow an immediate standout in the sunscreen category.
Enhancing Leisure?
What’s equally important is the "leisure-enhancing formula." Vacation Inc. has cultivated a reputation for products that deliver more than just a functional outcome — they elevate the overall experience. This sunscreen not only protects the skin, but also infuses a touch of indulgence with its signature, award-winning scent. With ingredients like coconut extract, aloe vera, and banana extract, this product hydrates and nourishes skin while ensuring a healthy, glowy finish that invites users to linger in the moments that matter most.
The Marketing: Shine Through with Unique Retro Visuals
From a marketing standpoint, Classic Whip Glow has all the right ingredients to capture consumer attention. The "Tilt Valve” actuator produces perfectly sculpted foam and creates a visually stunning experience, while the gold shimmer offers a fresh twist that aligns with the rising trend for illuminating and multi-functional products. It’s clear that Vacation is tapping into consumer desires for products that provide both a luxury visual and efficacy-driven results.
Vacation has a less-is-more approach to their launch rollouts, but don't think that means they are not serving up some serious marketing gold. What Vacation does so well is it allows customers to immerse themselves fully in the brand experience. They have mastered the art of world building. The retro-inspired campaigns are always playful, creative, and eye-catching, all of which is consistent with the brand’s ethos of blending fun with function.
Each launch is identifiably and uniquely Vacation Inc.
Key Ingredients That Deliver Results
While we fawn over the creative, it's equally important to showcase how the product’s thoughtfully chosen ingredients work together to nurture and protect the skin. The coconut extract hydrates and nourishes, while aloe vera provides soothing relief. The addition of banana extract and vitamin E offer antioxidant protection, helping the skin look youthful and vibrant.
Developed with Dr. Elizabeth Hale, Chief Medical Advisor at Vacation Inc. and SVP of the Skin Cancer Foundation, this formula isn’t just about looking good. It’s about caring for skin while enjoying the sunshine, without compromising on performance or aesthetics. Classic Whip Glow brings all these benefits to the table, creating a highly desirable product that speaks to the modern beauty consumer’s needs and values.

With Classic Whip Glow, Vacation continues to lead the charge for creative, functional, and fun beauty products. From a marketing perspective, this product provides a blueprint for how beauty brands can successfully marry innovation with consumer demands for clean, multi-functional products that provide real benefits while delivering an experience.
As beauty industry marketers, it’s crucial to understand that success in today’s market isn’t just about solving a single pain point: it’s about creating memorable experiences, and Classic Whip Glow does exactly that.
