The main disadvantage of self-tanning products is the odour of the molecules generated by the Maillard reaction during tanning process. Through an exclusive partnership agreement with CPL Aromas, a UK-based international fragrance house, Soliance has created Vegetan FL Creation, an innovative solution to specifically cover odours generated by DHA.
Using to CPL Aromas expertise, the odour-causing molecules were identified by thermal desorption and then neutralised specifically with the “Aromaguard” technology. Soliance then developed a subtle blend of its liquid DHA, Aromaguard fragrance, agro-surfactant (APP) and solubilisers, to create a premix: ready to use, stable and easy to formulate even in cold phase.
Tested on 12 volunteers, Vegetan FL Creation showed the same coloration performance as DHA alone and 100% of the testers noticed the absence of unpleasant smell.
