Re: what is in solutions that make you feel sticky

Aloe can make solution sticky but even tho I believe it is in all solutions not all make you feel sticky. Look for a solution that dries very quickly and you will find the stickiness is either gone or almost eliminated.

DHA, Dihydroxyacetone is typically derived from Sugar Cane, thus the sticky feel and the “burnt caramel” smell after the tan (with some products).

Re: what is in solutions that make you feel sticky

It is hard for me to believe that both of you ladies don't know what you are selling. Then again maybe not. Like House of Tan said, dha is made from splitting sugar molecules.
So that is what gives it the the solution feel sticky.

I guess I assumed one knows DHA is derived from sugar and therefore would be sticky. Didn't think she would want solution without DHA. Aloe is sticky also

Re: what is in solutions that make you feel sticky

DHA and Aloe both contribute to the tacky/sticky feeling. New clients are always more aware of that sticky feeling. I always make sure to explain that it is pretty much a "given" when using any DHA solution or Aloe on the skin, you will feel sticky. Keep us posted on what you find that is not sticky.

I have found the quicker drying is the least sticky. So besides getting clients out fast they also leave happy that they are not sticky.
