'bare leg look' tights

Wondered if anyone can advise - I have horrible pasty legs, mottled, dry, speckled looking. Fake tan does not work at all - just does not take to my skin. For once this summer I want to wear knee length skirts and dresses and wondered if anyone could recommend some decent tights that will make my legs look lightly tanned and in a decent condition without being too obviously 'tight looking'. Hope that all makes sense!!

No the Tesco ones are from the value range, not F&F.

Glossy tights are awful. They really, really don't look like bare, oiled legs. Really.

I have very fair skin and wear Pretty Polly or M&S nude tights. Falke or Wolford would ladder if I so much as looked at them.

I use tesco tights they are 3 in a pink box and they cost about £4 . They're really good and tanned nicely and doesn't look like you're wearing tights.

They aren't glossy. They are oiled.

Thank you for all the replies! Given me loads of ideas to try - guess it is a case of trying the recommended brands and seeing what works for me :-)
