It is today important to look well and a tanned skin 0011. The term effective amount as used herein refers to is always a sign of good health. However, natural tanning is an amount necessary to obtain a physiological effect.

Thus, it is desirable to have an alternative route of administration; the age, health and weight of the to natural tanning. Therefore, self-tanning ingredients are recipient; the nature and extent of the symptoms; the kind of gaining more importance for various applications in the skin concurrent treatment; the frequency of treatment; and the and Sun care market. In addition to the classic self-tanners effect desired and can be adjusted by a person skilled in the there are, for example, moisturizing preparations for face and art. body that gradually build up a very slight and discreet tan, after-Sun preparations that prolong the tan, or Sunscreens 0012.

In one embodiment, the titanium dioxide used in the permit the formation of colored compounds by interaction compositions according to the invention is Substantially free with the amino acids of the skin.
