How does a QuikTan work?

Quik Tanning works by using our air brush tanning system. It is applied by spraying the body with a UV free solution. The active ingredient in airbrush tanning is Dihydroxyacetone DHA. DHA is a colorless sugar that has been FDA approved for more than 30 years, which darkens the skin. DHA works by interacting with the amino acids in the dead surface cells found in the outermost layer of the skin, producing color changes. As the dead skin cells are naturally wearing off, the color gradually fades, just like a genuine sun tan. This does not cause damage to the underlying living layers of skin.
