Branding
Coppertone name
The name Coppertone originated from its marketing of suntan lotion, as opposed to sunscreen.[3]

Coppertone girl
In the time when the product was a suntan lotion, the company introduced the character the Coppertone girl, also known as Little Miss Coppertone. In the advertisement, a young blond girl in pigtails stares in surprise as a cocker spaniel puppy tugs at her swimsuit, revealing her tan line.[3]

Logo history
The original Coppertone logo was the profile of an American Indian chief. In 1953, Tally Embry Advertising in Florida was hired, and their ad men created the concept of the little girl and the pup. An artist named Joyce Ballantyne Brand re-drew the little girl in 1959 when the original artwork was destroyed in a fire. She was then working for Grant Advertising in New York.[4]

A series of mechanical billboards were constructed across the United States, whereon the motorized dog and swimsuit bottoms rocked up and down perpetually. Although most of them are long since gone or have stopped moving, one such billboard of the then Coppertone Girl still stands in Miami Beach — dog, pigtails, swimsuit, bottom, and all.

Live models
When Joyce Ballantyne Brand redrew the logo in 1959, she purportedly used her daughter, Cheri, as her model, and her drawing closely resembled the original artwork.[4]

Fragrances
Many Coppertone products share a distinctive fragrance. Chandler Burr described it as "arguably the single greatest work of scent branding ever."[5] A researcher on human memory used it as an example of an odor that evokes autobiographical memories.[6] Besides for the classic fragrance, the Coppertone product line has expanded to include other scents.[3]

An early slogan for Coppertone was, "Tan, don't burn".[3]
