A plurality of sheet-like substrates infused by an aqueous self-tanning
position is enclosed in a dispensing enclosure, from which they may be
removed one at a time. The self-tanning composition adheres to each
substrate while in the container, and transfers from the substrate when
applied to the skin of a user. The aqueous self-tanning composition
comprises 45% to 65% by weight of aqueous extract of Japanese green tea,
5% to 15% dihydroxyacetone, 5% to 25% ethylethoxydyglycol, 3% to 10%
PPG-12-Buteth-16, 1% to 13% of a humectant, 0.05% to 0.5% of minerals,
and other trace constituents such as an exfoliator, moisturizer,
colorant, anti-oxidant, tanning accelerator, preservative, and sunscreen.
The substrates are infused by being placed in a vacuum chamber in which
they can be agitated and tumbled, and the ingredients are added in a
specific order at specific temperatures, with tumbling and agitation
following each step for a specific period of time.
