Fake tan without DHA

Does anyone know which fakes tans do not contain DHA? I heard there’s new ones coming out which don’t have it which means they don’t smell as much or go orange?

    Hi Elmo,
    As GlammaGirl has explained beautifully, all self-tans contain some measure of DHA in order to stain your skin in mimicry of a suntan. What you`re looking for is a body bronzer, which will give you instant colour, albeit on a more temporary basis than self-tan (it will just wash off). I rely on Jungle Bronze Skin Gloss when I need to get golden on the double – it`s coconutty, delivers a gorgeous dewy colour and is deliciously moisturising too. There`s also a story on Bh about getting the perfect faux glow which includes some DHA body bronzers and recommends a DHA-free salon spray as well. You can check it out at this link:

    I hope it`s a help,

    but the best gradual tan is the sunscene
    it is really good and you get to choose what colour
    or how dark you become
