Natural status of DHA and Erythrulose in skincare and natural claims
Question
Could you please clarify the manufacturing process and composition of Dihydroxyacetone (DHA) and EasyTan™ (Erythrulose)? Are they considered natural ingredients? If these ingredients are used in a skincare product, can the product be claimed as a natural skincare product, especially if other ingredients are natural?
Answer
## Answer Regarding Natural Ingredients
Based on the available information, Dihydroxyacetone (DHA) and Easy tan (referring to EasyTan™ (Erythrulose)) are not considered natural ingredients. Both of these ingredients are obtained through chemical synthesis.
Therefore, a skincare product containing these ingredients cannot be claimed as an entirely natural product. However, you can claim the percentage of natural ingredients present in the formulation, calculated based on the natural components used in that specific formula.
