The undesirable orange-brown coloration in the skin resulting from degraded 1,3-dihydroxyacetone self-tanning compositions is corrected by producing an olive-green coloration in the skin. A golden-brown artificial tan coloration is achieved using 3,5-dimethoxy-4-, which produces an olive-green colored melanoidins in the upper layers of the skin, and 1,3-dihydroxyacetone, which produces an orange-brown melanoidins in the upper layers of the skin. The visual resultant of the olive-green and orange-brown melanoidins is a natural-looking, golden-brown artificial tan coloration. The 3,5-dimethoxy-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde may also be used as a corrective composition, to adjust the coloration of previously applied 1,3-dihydroxyacetone-induced artificial tans.
