The Coppertone sunblock girl is a character from the iconic advertising campaign for Coppertone sunscreen. Introduced in 1953, the image features a young girl with pigtails being playfully pulled by her dog, revealing her bare back as she applies sunblock. This imagery has become emblematic of sun safety and childhood innocence, making it one of the most recognizable symbols in advertising history. The character's name is generally referred to as "Little Miss Coppertone."

Why does sunblock turn skin orange?
Because you got a tanner with sunblock in it. Regular sunblock has no color. Actually, no I didn't. What I used was Coppertone Kids Continuous Spray SPF 50 that stated it was a clear, no-rub spray. The orange staining has occurred with regular sunblocks, not self-tanners. Never mind...after doing more web surfing I finallly came up with an answer myself. Here it is. http://www.golfwrx.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=182604

Who was the first copper tone baby?
Coppertone Girl - In 1959, a 3-year-old girl in pig-tails named Cheri Brand posed for a family snapshot in the backyard of her Bronxville, NY home and soon became Little Miss Coppertone®, a symbol of summer and poster-girl for the long-running Coppertone sunscreen ad campaign whose famous slogans proclaim "Don't be a Paleface!" and "Tan - Don't Burn." A popular belief that Jodie Foster was the original Coppertone girl is misleading. Foster did, however, get her start in showbiz for a Coppertone suntan-lotion ad in 1965. She was three years old at the time and appeared in the ad as a toddler on a boat accompanied by her family.
