Description
This sugar-derived compound is primarily used in self-tanning products to create a temporary bronze color by reacting with amino acids in the skin's outer layer. It provides a gradual, natural-looking tan without UV exposure, making it a popular alternative to sun tanning. While generally considered safe for topical use, some users may experience skin irritation or uneven coloring if not applied properly.
