concealing varicose veins on leg

I'm searching for a product to help cover up varicose veins on my calves - have had them for a while but they worsened when I was pregnant and haven't improved now my ds is nearly one. They are both blue and lumpy but i think if I covered up the colour they would be much less noticeable. I have very pale bluey skin so most products are too dark - tried dermablend light which would have been ok if I was light orange! I don't really fake tan for same reason - any mistakes show up as most tans too dark for me. Just want something to blend it in a bit - I am 38 and quite slim so don't think bare leg days are behind me quite yet.

No help here sorry but I have something similar. Purple/blue patch on my calf since pregnancy, not into fake tanning. Hope someone has a good idea!

I too am a varicose vein sufferer. Actually had mine removed a few years ago! Then got preg. Twice. Now have new veins. Oh well.

Not tried this: m.boots.com/h5/cat_hub?unCountry=uk&path=/en/Sally-Hansen-Airbrush-Legs-Leg-Makeup-118ml-Light-01_1421367/

But it might be worth a try?
