Anyone heard which Cal tan lotions are being discontinued for 2007?

Shane · 19th July 2007, 01:54 AM

Only thing I know for sure is Mayhem. It has already been discontinued. Not sure of the others as of now, but I hope the entire Chaos collection gets dumped.

I also heard that they are bringing back a few. I believe the X collection is being brought back. And I wanna say I heard Climax and Helix.

I also heard that the matahari brand may be re born again.

I think it's all the sucky ones ... OMG! What will they sell now? ~Oh yeah, they have that one spray booth. Whew~

dcjjp1 · 19th July 2007, 01:03 PM

I love Climax and Helix, those are my favorite lotions from Cal Tan. The smell takes me back 15 years...

Drew · 30th July 2007, 03:10 PM

multiple climax and double helix....the new versions

Uvangel · 30th July 2007, 04:55 PM

I want them to bring back VHO. I loved that lotion!!

John · 30th July 2007, 05:00 PM

Coming back for 2008:
Helix
Climax
Sexy Line
Luminous Moisturizer
X line (X Speed, X Power & so on)
Butter

The only thing gone for sure is Mayhem, which Shane mentioned above.

OMGawd, I just got hot... Melt sum butter on me

Be nice if they put the Climax and Helix smell into X and just sold it for 60 bucks...kill two birds with one propeller.

Jeff@TT · 2nd August 2007, 07:14 PM

Beach Bum Rum back as well.. dark thrill (BBR in disquise) did not sell well at all. Also heard Cypher is coming.. $125 or similar. Maybe like CT7 on steriods... Hemp, etc.

Jeff@TT · 2nd August 2007, 07:15 PM

Anyone remember Caltan Evolve Facial complex.. was such good stuff 7-8 years back.

SUNNYDAYS · 7th August 2007, 11:09 AM

That was a nice facial lotion. My all time favorite lotion was Unison.

sedmiller · 14th September 2007, 01:17 AM

PotenC is going to be gone - coming back with X. I think it is the wrong strategy to bring back what is old. Customers are looking for NEW. Maybe X will have some new scent and/or features. It was not selling last year when the discontinued it for us.

smileysnob · 14th September 2007, 10:32 AM

I am so happy that Butter is coming back! Is the hot action butter back too? Im not crazy about the X series… I will have to try them again…

What about the Matahari coming back? Which ones?? I LOVE Dark sexy legs!!! Not just for your legs, just remember to wash your hands after

dcjjp1 · 14th September 2007, 10:52 AM

I heard most of Matarhari will come back.

I would be so excited!!! I love that product

John · 14th September 2007, 11:30 AM

Matahari will have a new Diva line, & Luminous will be back.

PotenC is not discontinued, the X line will have a new fragrance.

smileysnob · 14th September 2007, 11:41 AM

cool! Luminous was very popular

DCB · 15th September 2007, 06:20 PM

It really doesn't look good for them to bring back something that they at one time obviously felt a need to get rid of. Especially when we have to explain to people why they discontinued something in the first place and that usually involves saying something better took its place so you can get them onto another product. Its okay to bring the products inside the bottles back, but at least change them a little and give them a whole new name!!!!

Don't they know anything about marketing?

MR.TANLINES · 17th September 2007, 10:18 PM

Evolve is more than 7-8 years gone..isnt it more like 10 years gone? Stuff came out in what 93-94?
