This year, your very own Greek brand, Carroten, features new, innovative products that are ready as always to offer you safe protection and the unique Carroten-style tan.

Carroten was born in the early 1980s, having carrot - known for its exceptional antioxidant properties and the ability to amplify tanning- as a source of inspiration. Enriched with vitamins A+E and other natural ingredients, Carroten became the first mass-market sun care line with carrot-based composition, identifying its name not only with reliable sun protection under the demanding Greek summer conditions but also with a safe natural tan. As tanning experts, Carroten creates suncare products that contain advanced tanning and cosmetic technology, providing a gorgeous tan, while offering deep care to the skin. The carrot contains an orange pigment called ‘beta-carotene’ which is the main ingredient in all of our tanning products. Its main property being the ability to boost melanin production which ultimately gives our skin that instant and natural tanning result.

Ingredients

Sesame oil is enriched with essential fatty acids and Vitamin E which helps protect the skin cells from UV damage, whilst calendula extract promotes skin tightness to reduce day to day damage. Since then, Carroten has grown into Greek consumers’ favorite brand, becoming synonymous with true expertise regarding the sun in Greece as, more by design than accident, the complete Carroten sun care range is a result of longitudinal domestic innovative research and development. Prescriptions must be written on an Authority Prescription Form, and the approval number must be noted on the prescription. Pharmacists cannot dispense the item as a pharmaceutical benefit unless it has been approved by Medicare Australia (indicated by the presence of the approval number). The product formulas are developed with consistency, continuity, and responsibility by a research team of Greek scientists, while the laboratory studies on the ingredients used are certified by international scientific organizations and institutes. These suncare products contain advanced tanning and cosmetic technology, providing gorgeous tan, while offering deep care to the skin.
