Key ingredients

DHA (dihydroxyacetone) and erythrulose are natural substances that react with the dead cells on the skin surface, creating a beautiful and natural tan without harmful UV radiation. These two substances have been thoroughly studied and have no harmful effects on the skin, are not known to be carcinogenic and are even suitable for use during pregnancy. However, some people may be allergic to these substances (for example, people allergic to raspberries), so it is advisable to carry out a skin test before using the products.

Natural DHA (dihydroxyacetone) is a colourless sugar obtained from plant sources such as sugar cane or sugar beet. DHA does not penetrate deeper into the epidermis of the skin and is not absorbed into the bloodstream. Tanning takes place a few hours after application and the tan fades after about a week. Erythrulose is another natural tanning component. It is a keto-sugar derived from raspberries or other red berries. Erythrulose provides a slower and more gradual tan. By combining erythrulose and DHA, we achieve a more even and natural tan because they react differently to the skin. Erythrulose also serves as a good skin moisturiser, ensuring a longer-lasting tan.

Use

For best results, prepare your skin beforehand - exfoliate your body with an oil-free body scrub. Massage the product evenly all over your body and do not wash it off. Make sure to wash your hands thoroughly after use. You will see results within 8-12 hours.

To achieve and maintain a tan, we recommend using the cream two to three times a week.
