    [Self-tanning and sunless tanning products].
    Ann Dermatol Venereol 2017 Aug 17. Epub 2017 Aug 17.
    109, route de Limonest, 69380 Lissieu, France. Electronic address:
    Practically all currently available self-tanning products have as their active ingredient dihydroxyacetone (DHA), which may or may not be combined with erythrulose, tyrosine derivatives, and occasionally a naphthoquinone. The resulting skin tone, which resembles a natural tan, is due to chemical combination of the DHA with amino acids in the skin through the Maillard reaction. Polymer pigments known as melanoidins are formed and are fixed in the stratum corneum, where they remain until corneocyte desquamation occurs. Read More

It frequently colonizes chronic wounds and serious burns, and spongiotic or acantholytic dermatosis, especially when severe or localized in skinfolds. It requires special care because of its high resistance to antibiotics and antiseptics. Read More
