The first group of tanning pills rely on a number of carotenoids - natural pigments. It is a build up of these carotenoids in the skin that causes a colour change i.e. A tan.

This tan is by no means "real," and does not offer any protection against UV exposure. This is because they do not affect the production of melanin. The colouration of the skin is only temporary and fades once the course of tablets is stopped.
