The most important ingredients of tanning cosmetics for solarium use

Professional tanning products contain ingredients that are responsible for a beautiful, bronze tan and—very importantly— care for the condition of your skin . They should protect it from, among other things, drying out and peeling. Below, we briefly discuss the most important ingredients in tanning products. Learn about their properties and tan consciously.

Caffeine and tanning

Caffeine is often found in tanning lotions . It reduces puffiness and helps reduce wrinkles and cellulite. This is mainly due to its antioxidant properties, which fight free radicals responsible for premature skin aging. At the same time, it gives you a powerful boost of energy and beautifully shapes your figure.

DHA - the secret to a quick tan

DHA is an ingredient particularly common in bronzers. It's what allows you to achieve a quick, bronzed tan. This is possible because DHA reacts with amino acids in the stratum corneum of the epidermis.Tanning lotions containing DHA quickly darken your skin.

Tyrosine

Tyrosine is a natural amino acid found in the human body. It stimulates the skin to produce more melanin, thus protecting it from the harmful effects of UV radiation. Tyrosine accelerates the tanning process, both in a tanning bed and in the sun. Cosmetics containing tyrosine will help you achieve a beautiful, natural tan.

Erythrulose - a natural self-tanner

Erythrulose is also called "natural self-tanner ." It is a sugar compound whose chemical structure is similar to DHA. It has similar effects but is much more stable. Unlike DHA, it causes skin color to change more slowly, but it helps achieve a more even and natural tan. Therefore, it is used in tanners in combination with DHA.

SKINUPHORIA Formula

It stimulates the production of beta-endorphins , which are the most potent of the endorphin family. The formula has relaxing and anti-stress properties, which have a beneficial effect on mood. It can be found in products such as the Onyx Happy Supreme Bronzer balm.

Flower Power composition

Flower Power is a composition of unique ingredients that provide anti-aging and antioxidant benefits to the skin. Furthermore, they guarantee a feeling of profound relaxation. To experience the power of Flower Power, we encourage you to try ourOnyx TS Premium Tan Rituals bronzing serum.

Ink Care Formula

The Ink Care formula combines precious oils and fruit extracts. Most importantly, it contains a complex that protects tattoos from color loss and photochemical oxidation. This prevents tattoos from fading due to sun exposure. You'll find this blend of ingredients in our special tanning accelerator, Onyx Tattoo .
