I received a sample of an Aloha Tanning lotion in the mail yesterday that was sent to me probable in bulk mailing from the company....so have any of you tried this line of lotions??
All I can say is that is smells good..I have not tried it yet.

I have a couple of customers that are totally sold on Aloha products. Their tastes range from Poele' La to Hahana to Olu'. I'm with you, they certainly do smell nice. Response has not been enough to stock the entire line, but I do keep a couple on hand.

I got one two, but haven't tried it yet.

To dang busy to tan myself.

We've carried their entire line: great packaging to work with on display, good results, and priced reasonably enough for our market. Caution: stay away from the Pukana La, took two months to track it as a source of "itching" from customers. Realized it was not coming completely off of acrylic with normal cleaning. I would carry the entire line again except for that one.

How are the prices on these lotions?
Cost vs. Retail ???

Thanks

Well, they consistently do a 2 for 1 cost-wise whether direct or through distributor. Will not budge on price...but it still works if you are looking for mid-range $30 - $60 retail. Better discounts from other manufacturers perhaps, BUT it does create excitement with newness and eye appeal to consumer. $tart where you want and go from there...

Had employee try this lotion tonight...enjoyed the smell as it went on..She did not enjoy the after-tan smell...bronzer that was in the lotion did not work like she was hoping!

I cannot get over the name "Pukana La" Every time I see it I have to look again b/c I think "Puke"...

Poele La - dark sun
Pukana La - sunshine
Kalei - beautiful flower
Hahana - heat
Olu' - cool
Kulana - quality
Mahalo - thank you
