1)
WHY IS THE PRODUCT SO BROWN?
The use of color in our product was the result of an advanced
technological discovery. We found that the use of color pigment
finally eliminated STREAKING because our customers can see the product
as it is applied to the skin. The use of color gives our customers
"control" of the product and results in a smooth and even tan
without embarrassing streaks or blotches. IMPORTANT NOTE: This
color is not a stain or dye; it is a naturally based organic color pigment
that is temporary. The DHA is what actually tans your body; the
color is for application purposes only.

2)
WILL IT STAIN MY CLOTHING OR SHEETS?
No! Since organic color pigment is not a stain or
a dye, it will not permanently stain and will wash out of any synthetic
material. Many focus testing groups found that the color could
be removed more easily than make-up on collars. No pre-laundering
treatments were required.

3)
HOW LONG DOES IT LAST?
This is one of our favorite questions! We boast that our
product needs to be applied on the average of only once or twice a week.
Of course, you will determine your own maintenance schedule. Remember,
you are in control, you can deepen your tan simply by applying more of
the product.

4)
DOES IT WASH OFF?
NO! Remember that the organic color is for application.
The unique Dihydroxy (DHA) is what creates your tan. Just like
a tan from the sun, the tan from this product will not wash off because
of its new breakthrough formulation! Note: DHA is not permanent,
so it will fade just as any suntan does, which is why a weekly application
is recommended to maintain your tan.

5)
CAN I USE IT IN THE SUN OR WITH
SUN BEDS?
In our marketing research we discovered that the use of our product
with the sun or with a sun bed actually accelerates the tanning process.
Stimulating the dark pigment of the skin, known as Melanin, accelerates
any form of sun tanning. Those who wish to combine our product with
an additional sun tanning regimen will see quicker and more satisfying
results than ever before. For this reason, many Suntan Salons carry
our products to use with sun beds as a Melanin Accelerator to promote
tanning. Our product is also ideal for those who cover their face
during tanning or who have trouble tanning the sides of their bodies or
other problem areas. NOTE: We do recommend the use of SPF or sun
block when engaging in any form of sun tanning.

6)
DOES YOUR PRODUCT HAVE ANY SUNSCREEN OR SPF?
Our Chemist recommended that we not add any of the above to our
product. So many of our customers want different degrees of sunscreens
or sun blocks that it would be impossible to satisfy all of them.

7)
WHAT ABOUT SWIMMING WITH THE PRODUCT?
Again, we emphasize that this product fades but does not wash
off. For the very best results, follow our instructions and apply
the product at night and rinse the next morning. Do not swim immediately
after application of the product; this would result in waste. Instead,
swim after your morning rinse.

8)
ARE THERE ANY HARMFUL EFFECTS OF
THIS PRODUCT?
Dermatologists will enthusiastically agree that tanning with a
dihydroxy formulation is much safer than tanning for prolonged hours in
the sun. Our company members are very conscientious about safety,
health, and environmental issues. For this reason, we have created
an organically based product to ensure a safe tan and to promote healthy
skin. We used no animal testing because our product contains no
harmful ingredients that would have required extensive animal testing.

9)
HOW
LONG DOES IT TAKE TO DRY?
Because the level of moisture in each skin type varies,
drying time will also vary slightly. In general, we have found
that 20 minutes is sufficient time for the product to dry.
Many choose to apply the product several hours before going to bed
to ensure that the product has dried completely.
