Indeed, the beta-carotene it contains will accelerate and strengthen your skin's natural defense mechanism. Thus, the skin will produce melanin more quickly when exposed to the sun and you will tan more intensely.

Thus, thanks to supple and hydrated skin, your tan will last longer and you can return to work with peace of mind with a healthy glow and a tan radiant!
