Erythrulose

L-Erythrulose is a natural keto sugar found in plants. Erythrulose has a slower, but more even and longer-lasting tanning effect than DHA (without any orange tint). A combination with DHA is possible but not recommended. With DHA, the process begins immediately after application. The result is visible within one to three hours depending on skin type, but lasts only between three and five days. Erythrulose is chemically more stable than DHA, so the tanning process is slower. As a result, the tan does not appear within a few hours, but after one to two days.

It can be used in:
Creams, lotions, sprays
Sensitive skin care products
Products with a high sun protection factor
Sun protection products for sensitive skin

Important:
Products in which erythrulose is used should have a pH value between 4-5.

Usage tip:
Add 100 ml of aloe vera 1:1 and 3 ml of erythrulose to a spray bottle. Apply and distribute evenly over the skin.
