What denier nude tights to cover scars?

I'm going to the wedding next week and after a holiday to a tropical place I am plagued with insect bites Sad

They have healed now, so aren't scabby but I have been left with 5p sized scars. They are purple and quite dark and I have about six of them on each leg. I have ordered some bleaching cream which I've been told will help them fade over time but this doesn't help me right away!

Can someone advise me on what are the best nude tights to wear so my legs look flawless and silky and perfect?

Hmmm, I would think they would need to be quite thick if your scars are still dark coloured! How about make designed to cover up tattoos? That might work better?

Or else just go bare legged and tell everyone about your amazing tropical holiday :)

The highest denier I can find is 20. I'll guess I'll have to go for those!

I know Mac does a body foundation, I may pop in for a sample.

I have (proper!) scars on my legs. I cover with dermablend and then use fine 10 denier nude tights

Ballet tights are thick and come in nude colours... I have some for covering bruises.

The bruises are from my dog, which still sounds weird, but less weird than not explaining it at all, lol.

Was going to ask if anyone knows where you can get thick nude tights please tell me. I did manage some 30 s last year from asda.

I wear dresses throughout the winter and get sick of black all the time. ( I do have other colours but would like beige/ tan/ nude)

Going to check ballet tights. I'm wanting 100 denier but not woolly ones.
