karebay biochem melanotan Sharing my personal experience with tanning injections (now nasals) —how vanity led me down the path of using it, thinking I'd done all my research. Now, years later, I'm dealing with Melanotan I (MT-I) | MCR
Description
This reaction requires -ketoglutarate, oxygen, and ascorbate (vitamin C) as cofactors and takes place in the mitochondria

Referred to as the 'Barbie drug' or 'tan jab', Melanotan II stimulates melanin production, resulting in a strong tan without the need to expose oneself to the sun's rays for hours on end
