Q. How does TanArt™ stickers work?

A. The ingredient in TanArt™ sticker that gives you the tanned image is dihydroxyacetone (DHA). DHA is a colorless sugar that darkens the skin. It does its work by interacting with the dead skin cells found in the uppermost layer of the skin, producing a color change. As the dead skin cells are naturally sloughed off, the color gradually fades. DHA is what is used in self-tanning lotions.
