Has anyone used leg make-up instead of tights?

I can't go bare and don't want to wear tights with strappy sandals. Has anyone tried instant leg-bronzer/make-up? If so would you recommend it? I find self-tan just makes me look a bit dirty. I saw one on Boot's website called Makebelieve Instant Tan Wash Off Bronzer but have no idea whether it would be any good.

I second Sally Hansen - best invention ever.

What? You can buy make up to cover bruises and scars on your legs?

Why didn't I know this Shock

Yes, Sally Hansen is great- it doesn't cling to dry patches like self-tan does, so if you have a bit of eczema or psoriasis, it's a great way to camouflage it.

It's not cheap though, if you plan to use it every day.

Gravy browning? Grin

Sally Hansen is brill - covers bruises and everything and doesn'r rub off. Wish it was cheaper though

I tried the sally hansen but found it was too orangey. Are there different shades?

MissBeehivingUnderTheMistletoe · 17/07/2012 20:03

Yes - light, tan, medium and deep. I use the light as my legs are startling white au naturale

Sally Hansen Airbrush legs makes even my rank legs look halfway decent!

Definitely going to try it. Wasn't sure about shade but am ghostly white so will get the light. Thanks for your help all.
