Suncare brand Vacation is launching in Sephora – just in time for summer 2026.

Officials say the launch marks a “notable evolution” in the brand’s retail and channel strategy. After building a cult following across a broad mix of mass, prestige, specialty and lifestyle retailers — including Ulta Beauty, Target, Costco, Bloomingdale’s, Erewhon and more — the brand says it’s deepening its presence in prestige beauty via Sephora.com. The expansion, officials say, signals growing demand for its distinct approach to SPF across all retail tiers.

“This launch is a chance to evolve the traditional retail playbook. It’s a more consumer-centric approach to distribution,” said London Nielsen Krupski, general manager at Vacation. “The brand has built momentum across a broad mix of retail environments, from large-format and prestige beauty to specialty and lifestyle. Expanding on Sephora.com is the next step in that strategy, strengthening our presence in prestige beauty while continuing to grow in the channels where SPF is being discovered today.”

Product Assortment

The product assortment will include the brand’s top-selling SPF and fragrance products, including the Classic Whip franchise — Classic Whip SPF 50 and Classic Glow Whip SPF 30; Vacation by Vacation Eau de Toilette; Shimmer Oil SPF 30; and Super Spritz SPF 50, among others. The launch will also entail two Sephora.com-exclusives, the Vacation Sun Sampler and Vacation Sun & Scent Sampler.

To support the online launch, Vacation will bring its leisure-enhancing worlds to life through a summer-long campaign spanning digital, social and experiential touchpoints. The brand will also partner with the Sephora Squad, Sephora’s brand ambassador program, through a dedicated gifting program designed to drive discovery and trial.
