before hitting the mainland to avoid trouble with xenophobes and/or the law. Maybe both could be handled as something like "spycraft". The Britons supposedly dyed their skin blue for religious/magical reasons. Presumably there are other instances/reasons/examples of artificially darkened/tinted skin

claims that this produces a better tan than uv exposure are unfounded, sources are making statements about a diet rich in fruit and vegetables are being used to imply that eating large quantities of carotenoid containing foods to produce carotenaemia will give you an attractive tan, even though all

I added this link to the bottom of this page as it has MANY resources for both straight forward information on sunless tanning products, health & safety, and cosmetic concerns as well as a forum for users to respond. This sunless tanning product user feedback section was extremely helpful to me

Reason: Citation to “Dermnet – New Zealand,” not a scientific site. Rather, the website was founded by a NZ dermatologist, offers “…up to date information on skin diseases and their management.” The section cited was written by Vanessa Ngan, Staff Writer (no other information) 14 years ago (2002).

This article needs a lot of work. It has a good structure and has enough merit to warrant inclusion in Knowledge (XXG), but it needs to be edited for tone and point of view, as it's mostly written in a sensationalist style. It also contains a lot of factual inaccuracies. It contained a lot of
367:
The claims made in this section, especially "safest" "most effective" and "permanent" seem to have little evidence. Also suspect is the fact that Carotenoid-based products is the first subheading while topical tanning agents, which are are much more common and mainstream are simply filed under
306:
Edited the page out with misleading quotes that state that artificial tans remove the risk of skin cancer. People who get NO UV and people who get too much UV both share a higher risk of skin cancer, so total avoidance isn't prevention, and we should be careful not to imply this.
267:
forward slash (/) after a file name at the end of a url will screw the link more often than not. If you're going to contribute to an article, take the time to do it right and check your work. Others are supposed to be contributing their findings, not cleaning up your mess.
581:
This is an encyclopedia article on spray tanning and the main image is of someone who isn't even confirmed to have done it before? Only deemed "plausible" by the NYT? Bit ridiculous if you ask me. Maybe include the image lower in the article with an explanatory caption.
168: 352:
There are plenty of links on the page, but they are put in the article instead of used as footnotes. I feel there are plenty of citations in the article to verify the claims made on the page, and organization is the problem. Will see about fixing that soon.

to say that he uses tanning lotion or any other method. And a reliable source in this case would IMO have to be someone with better information than conclusions drawn from looking at photos. Perhaps a better image to show what sunless tanning looks like is
332:
as I looked at options for creation of a new product. I'm fairly sure that this information would be of benefit to someone looking for more information on sunless tanners in general as it discusses the real-world usage experiences of many people.
271:
The article is very U.S. centric. More references to non-american regulations would be in order. This article should rather feature a general person in a spray tan facility rather than Donald Trump, especially when the photo is inobvious
532:
OK, using a NYT as a source that it is plausible that self-tanning products are the reason for Trump's winter tan. The article indicates why other explanations are unlikely, but that is too much info to include in the caption
325:(most?) of the internet resources on Sunless Tanning, DHA, Erythrulose, Melanotan, tyrosine, etc... The resources I found most useful were this article on Knowledge (XXG) and a website called Sunless.com 490:
which says "There is debate as to whether Donald Trump’s skin tone is due to a spray-on tan, sunbed or make-up." The image has been removed and can't be restored unless there is a supporting source.
388:
images of carotenaemia i could find look similar to jaundice and/or are localized to a specific area such as the nose, none of which resemble the look of someone who has a sun induced tan
338:
I would propose that you/we add a link to this website to the wikipedia article as it provides additional information and provides a forum for those who wish to discuss sunless tanners.

Strongly agreed; including Trump as the only image in the article based on speculation, even speculation from a RS, is pretty ridiculous.

Well, I'm not particularly happy about including Trump but with the caption now saying "plausible" I think the image is OK.
