Abstract
A delivery system for sunscreen products that applies a dry, waterproof sunscreen composition to the skin. The delivery system for suncare products of the present invention is designed to apply only the required amount of sunscreen composition to the skin without excess. The sunscreen composition is applied to an article such as paper, nonwoven cloth or porous plastic which is subsequently rubbed onto the skin. Alternatively, the sunscreen may take the form of a wafer or a bar with or without a support article. A delivery system for suncare products which include dihydroxyacetone in order to produce a semi-permanent color that gives the appearance of a natural suntan is described which utilizes the same self-leveling principle as the delivery system for suncare products containing sunscreen compositions.
