| What
makes you go brown?
The sunless tanner dihydroxyacetone (DHA) is currently the most
popular way of gaining a tan-like appearance without sun exposure
as it carries less health risks than any of the available methods.
To date, it is the only active ingredient approved by the Food &
Drug Administration (FDA) for sunless tanning.
How does DHA work?
All effective sunless tanners contain DHA. It is a colourless 3
carbon sugar that when applied to the skin causes a chemical reaction
with amino acids in the surface cells of the skin producing a darkening
effect. DHA does not damage skin as it only affects the outermost
cells of the epidermis (stratum corneum).
How is Natural Tan different to other self tanners?
Natural Tan had developed the most advanced formula on the market.
Not only do we use the highest levels of DHA available (to give
you a deeper more natural tan) the added benefit of collagen not
only moisturisers and hydrates the skin, it assists in restoring
the skin’s elasticity – a known agent in slowing the
signs of ageing. It gives you a longer lasting tan and reduces the
dryness and patchiness often experienced with most self tanners.
How long does it last on your skin?
It usually lasts at least 7 days( sometimes longer) if correct aftercare
is followed.
