moniek Posted March 6, 2006 Author Share Posted March 6, 2006 Is there any fo close to the Hawaiian tropics tanning oil you get in the stores? I think that smells so good!!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet68cam Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 Santirini from Just Scent Smells pretty close to it, also I have a cocoa butter I cant remember where it came from but to me it smells identical...some cocoa butters do not though so you would just have to smell a couple and see;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaye Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 Have never tried it, but have heard reviews on Taylored Concepts "Beachin". Maybe someone who has used this will chime in. This is one that I want to try myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherie Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 BNL had one. I can't remember the exact name. Might have to wait and see if BCN brings it back. I think it actually had "tropical" in the name. Sorry I can't be more help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherri in Canada Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 Tranquil Tropics was the one BNL had Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mommyof1 Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 Tranquil Tropics was the one BNL hadAnd, unfortunately, it did not smell like Hawaiian Tropic to my nose. TC's Beachin did not smell like it either but was closer. TC also has a Dark Tanning Oil that smells the closest to Hawaiian Tropic that I have found but still is not quite "IT". Beachin is a very nice tropical scent, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaye Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 Now I know the difference between the two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tahlula B. Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 To think I clicked because I was hoping to find an answer as well! I really want a good coconut/tanning oil type fragrance. I think BNL had one that I was going to try but now, well, that isn't possible! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nayarx8 Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 Try Dark Tanning Oil from Taylored Concepts. Its pretty "oily" smelling OOB, but in wax, its dead-on for tanning lotion! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 I had one that was reccomended to me, Tranquil Tropics? I don't know the name, but it was from BNL (now BCN FOs). It was tropical smelling, but nothing like suntan lotion, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 OK. Now I'm seeing *two* of these threads. So I'm going to merge them. Just a reminder - start only ONE thread per question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tess Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 Ahhh Yes, I too am on the hunt for an accurate "Hawaiian Tropic" Suntan lotion dupe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synascents Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 I will contact NG & WSP to see if they have a scent for it!I love that scent also!Bigtime Summer Scent!Stephanie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovy Chic Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 I had a bottle of the Tranquil Tropics from BNL and to me it was nothing like suntan oil. In fact, in CP it totally lost it's scent and cure time didn't improve that one at all. In candles, it was also a disappointment and I ended up selling the bottle. I'm currently testing Carribean Coconut from www.soapsupplies.net and will be test burning the candle today. The cold throw is most excellent and the tart I've had burning for the last day is still throwing all over the place. I hope this one stands up the the CP test, this is a great oil.

SheilaW Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 Groovey Chic, have you tried any of the other oils from soapsupplies.net ?? They are about 1 1/2 hr. from me and I have been thinking about trying some for CP.Years ago I got a 1oz sample of watermelon from Lonestars and once I put it in wax it smelled exactly like Hawaiian Tropic. Weird but true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovy Chic Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 I'm also testing her Child fragrance. I love this scent, it is a clean scent with an extra kick. I've made a perfume with it but not candles yet. That's next. It's a beautiful scent. Sweetcakes carries this scent also but hers is much higher priced. These are the two oils I've bought from Paige and I'm extremely happy with both. Very high quality and great prices. Anyway, I want to try her WVS next. I think you'll be very happy with the oils and being so close is an extra plus. Let me know when you do take the plunge and try some of her oils, I'd love to hear some feedback.

SheilaW Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 As soon as my income tax money gets here I plan on going on a buying spree:D I'll let you know how they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 save your money on WSP's version...it's nice, but definitely missing something... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babyrn Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 I'm burning JS tropical coconut right now in 100% soy and IMO this smells just like hawaiian tropics tanning oil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
