Desperately Looking For Bain de Soleil In-Stock? We May Have Found a Few Tubes Left!

Author: Patrick Varone Updated: January 1, 2023

Welcome, to all of our Orange Gelée fans out there! We’ve been looking for our summer-must-have Bain de Soleil just about everyone online and in-store, but with basically no luck. If you’re in the same boat as us, read on!

In Stock Bain de Soleil Orange Gelee SPF 4 February 2023

Our editors independently research, review, test, select and recommend our favorite products—learn more about our process. When you buy something through our links, we may earn a commission.

Is it even summer if you don’t have your Bain de Soleil? Like so many out there, we’ve been using it since the 80’s. We can name that scent from a mile away and that orange gel-like texture feels great on our skin. The one problem? The makers have discontinued it. Yes, really. Why? We’re not sure – but we feel like it’s a personal attack.

Clearly we’re not alone in our love for all things Orange Gelée because there is now an online petition where more than 6,000 people have signed demanding that Bayer bring it back to store shelves. Our personal opinion is that even if they don’t stock it on store shelves, at least let us be able to buy it online – and not at astronomical prices!

At last look we’ve been unable to find it on Amazon (if you do find it, it’s most likely a third party seller). And we’ve seen a bottle/tube for sale on eBay for $400. Come on! How is this even legal?! While we 100% do not recommend to pay that much (ever) below is a quick guide on a variety of places we did find it in-stock. Please (please, please, please) do not pay top dollar for this and make sure thatif you are it’s with a reputable seller.

Potential Availability

• Bain de Soleil on Amazon – Preview at Amazon

• A Variety of Tubes on eBay – Preview at eBay

• Single Tube on Walmart – Preview at Walmart

• Bain de Soleil SPF 4 on Instacart – Preview on Instacart

If you click through and see they’re not currently in-stock don’t yell at us! We’re trying our best! We’ll keep updating this article when we find new places to buy it and will keep you posted if/when Bayer brings this back to the market (fingers crossed).

In the meantime, try your luck at some of the top retailers below. And then, below that, we’re listing out some potential alternatives that are currently on sale. Trust us, we get it, there really are no suitable swaps – but desperate times call for desperate measures!

We wish you lots of luck on finding the affordable and in stock Bain de Soleil! Shop our picks for some of the best options (sort of?) for February 2023!

BAIN DE SOLEIL ALTERNATIVES + DUPES

Like we said, we 100% get it.Nothing compares to the original. However, if you’re looking for something to replace your beloved orange gelee, here are a couple of alternatives thatmight fill that void. Please note, we know they’re not the same, but there are little pieces of each of them thatmay compare.

Hampton Sun SPF 8 (or 15) Gel
Hampton Sun

Hampton Sun Gel

$36 | Amazon

$30 | Blue Mercury

If you’re looking for that similargel feeling when applying, you may want to give Hampton Sun a go. You can choose from either SPF 8 or SPF 15 depending on the amount of protection you want. Many users love the smell, how it makes their skin feel, and many say it’s on of the best tans they’ve ever got (and without the burn!).


Maui Babe Browning Tanning Lotion
Maui Babe

$16 | Amazon

$17 | Ulta

Ok, hear me out. This inno way smells like your beloved orange gelee, but it is one of the best tans I’ve ever gotten. This one doesn’t have SPF in it at all, so when I use it I always apply a base SPF first. Don’t worry, you’ll still tan – you’ll just help prevent the likelihood of burning. A little goes a long way with this one!
