Thank you! The hardest part I'm having is finding a manufacturer that will work with to create the exact shades I want. But, I'm sure with more research I will find one.

You will need to have ALOT of money to do that. I suggest starting at home. There's alot more to it than most people think. There are alot of ingredients that go in to each product.

here's the thing manufacturing for your line will be the same as many others thats why they dont want to make the exact shades you want, my sugesstion for that is to work with a chemist and do your diy for a lil while until you have enough to take your recipes and processes. I did a beauty show for St Tropez self tanning lotion, great company and the owners are still so into their company. the lady who owns it found a chemist and he would give her samples and the worked together until she was happy with the results so they are out there you just have to find one that will work with you. p.s St Tropez is the only self tanning system I would ever use.
