There is something that is called dihydroxyacetone that people can put on their skin to deepen their natural color. This is an active ingredient in many creams and lotions found on store shelves all over. This substance will only travel down into the upper layer of the epidermis.

This substance, also called DHA, interacts with the dead skin cells to make them turn dark. One needs to make sure they have a generous supply of lotions containing DHA. This is necessary since dead cells tend to wash off easily and one must replace the tan as it wears off fairly quickly.

There are also tanning accelerators. These normally contain certain amino acids that can be put on the skin or taken internally as a pill. This substance increases the production of melanin that controls skin color.

There is a pill based substance that will affect skin throughout the body. This substance is named canthaxanthin and was originally developed as a food coloring additive. However, when a person ingests this they will find that their skin will develop an orange and brown hue that apes the look of a tan.

The best self tanning products will make on look darker. Most are made in lotion and cream forms, but there are some that are meant to be ingested. They will not protect someone against the sun like a real tan might do and one will need to be careful when going out into the sun.
