Viral 'Carrot Tan' Hack: Can Eating Carrots Really Change Your Skin Tone?
A recent viral video by content creator ISABELLE (@isabelle.lux) has sparked widespread discussion regarding a unique beauty hack: achieving a natural tan by consuming carrots. In the video, ISABELLE claims that eating three large carrots daily for several years has visibly altered her skin's undertone, providing a 'glow from the inside out' without the need for artificial tanning products. ISABELLE showcases childhood photos alongside her current appearance, highlighting the perceived change in her complexion. She states, 'This is literally the skin that I was born with, and this is me with no fake tanner.' She attributes her current skin tone entirely to her consistent carrot intake, emphasizing, 'It changes everything, trust me.' The video concludes with her demonstrating the consumption of a carrot. This claim aligns with the scientific phenomenon known as carotenemia, a harmless condition where excessive consumption of carotene-rich foods, such as carrots, can lead to a yellowish or orange discoloration of the skin. While often perceived as a 'tan' or 'glow,' it is distinct from a melanin-based tan. The video has resonated with a large audience, accumulating over 2.9 million views and nearly 1.5 million likes, prompting numerous comments from viewers sharing similar experiences or expressing interest in trying the hack.
