FAQs

What is Erythrulose?

Erythrulose is a natural keto-sugar which reacts with primary or secondary amino acid groups to form the polymer, Melanoidin.

Erythrulose used in combination with DHA produces a more even and longer lasting tan without the undesired streaks. Skin treated with the combination solution is 30% less dry than those treated with DHA alone.

In summary, Erythrulose in combination with DHA may produce a deep, uniform and natural skin tan without undesired streaks.

Thanks to its retardation effect, Erythrulose prolongs the tan and leaves the skin less dry.
