Right, I need to get my legs ready for summer

[LutherRalph1]

They are corned beef legs, I'm so so pale that they are constantly purple and mottled looking.
Even the most gradual tanner looks orange and my pore are always so visible!

Any tips?

Scrub, moisturise, depliate (if you wish), own it.

I too have pasty, mottled, thread veiny legs. But they're the ones I've got.

All fake tans look fake IMO and are way more trouble than they're worth.

Dry brushing really helps the appearance of the skin on legs IMHO

Yup to dry brushing, then to moisturiser again and again and again.

If you have bumpy skin this scrub is awesome:

Then a good quality self tan.

Personally the only one I use is Rodial BUT I've just had a look for it and it looks like it may have been discontinued noooooooo!

Use a gradual tanning moisturiser every day. Medium/dark ones seem less fake looking than the light/medium ones which are more orange for some reason.

I'm rubbish at fake tan, but I've had good results with the san tropez in shower tan.

You apply it wet then wash it off after 3 minutes. And then do that a few days in a row. Their lightest tan gave my pale blue legs a faint glow that made them look better, but not like I'd tanned iyswim. I managed to keep it up for a couple of months last summer, applied for 3 days in a row then alternate or every 3rd day.

Meant my legs didn't dazzle anyone when I was wearing shorts!
