How self tanners work

I just stumbled across a fantastic little informational post over at Beauty Addict - How Self-Tanners Work (and Why They Smell). As a pale ghost of a girl I never tan in the sun, so self-tan is my only option if I want to seem a bit less pallid. But I'm wary, because my sister (similarly colored) has had a few bright-orange-skin mishaps.

I think understanding the science of the self-tan is fascinating, so if you've ever wondered, give it a read!
