Dihydroxyacetone (DHA) has been the go-to ingredient for self-tanning formulations. It provides skin with a healthy, sun-kissed glow without risking the harmful effects of sun exposure. DHA is a white to off-white fine, crystalline powder. Recent market introductions of daily moisturizers and lotions that contain DHA in lower doses confirm a new trend in self-tanning and bronzing.
