Q2) Can Your Spray Tan Cause Cancer?
A2) At the current time, we aren't certain as to the safety of spray tans. Small studies on bacteria and animals cells have found that DHA, the active ingredient in these sprays may cause DNA damage. At the same time, we are learning that some of the application is absorbed into the deeper tissues of the skin. Spray tans are not currently FDA approved, as DHA is not approved for inhalation (and spray tans are a mist) and DHA is not approved for application to mucous membranes, such as the lips, nose, and tissues around the eyes.
