I Cannot Live Without Sally Hansen's Leg Makeup

Why I Love Sally Hansen's Leg Makeup

Shana Dines
Something I can't live without is Sally Hansen's leg makeup. I love it! I don't bother wearing it in the winter unless I am wearing a skirt or dress. If no one is going to see my legs it is not necessary. But when it is getting nice out and I want to look tan or to even out a tan , I quickly buy Sally Hansen's airbrush leg make-up. It comes in several different shades. It is not as inexpensive as it was last year when I started using it. It has gone up to $12.95. That is a little steep but it lasts quite a while. You can find it in any drug store with make up or tanning products. They also have the self- tanning products.
I have found it online but I would just as soon buy it in the store to avoid shipping and waiting for it to arrive.

With skin cancer on the rise it is important to take care of yourself. Using sunscreen is important and not getting too much sun exposure is too. I love the sun and I tan really easily and quickly. I am getting older though and I realize that it ages you and those cute little freckles are not really freckles. I like that it also helps hide some blemishes and discolored areas without looking like make-up. They are age spots from sun damage. I like most young people didn't take it that seriously until I started seeing the damage to my skin.

My husband got skin cancer last year and I have a friend that had melanoma. If she hadn't gone to the doctor for a different suspicious mole she would have died. My husband's mole that I made him go for, was not cancerous but a wart that came up totally unexpectedly was cancer. It is not something to mess with. With the ozone layer being damaged taking care of your skin is even more important.

Another thing that I love about Sally Hansen's leg make up is I can spray a little on my arms and it looks very natural. Make sure you shave your legs, (I wouldn't let my husband shave his! Ha) I spray it on over the bathtub so it doesn't get on the floor or carpet, or over a towel. It will stay on for quite a while and doesn't come off with perspiration.
I like to have moisturizer on under it because it has a tendency to dry your skin. I lightly smooth it out with my hands so it is not to heavy.

My husband would never admit it but he uses it on his legs too. You would never believe that it is not a natural tan. The biggest problem for me is finding where to hide it from him.

Skin cancer is deadly.
Melanoma will kill you if not detected early, and is not always that easy to spot.

    i absolutely fell inlove with this product! I have scars on my legs due to shaving bumps and ive tried everything to cover them up. i always wore pants and was so self concious about my legs. i was even affraid to go to the beach because of it. until one day a friend told me about this product, i have been using it for 2 years now. its probably the best thing i have ever tried for my legs. its worth the cost!

    For the woman with Psorasis I used to use this too for that same reason. Go to your dermatologist and have them prescribe Clebetosol .05% ointment. It took my psorasis away in a matter of weeks. I noticed improvement within a week. I even went so far as to write my doctor a thank you note as I could finally wear cute dresses and skirts like everyone else. I only have to use it from time to time as a touch up. Don't panic....! Go to the doctor. It changes your life sweetie.

    Wow, great stuff. Chris is right--used with HeadOn Headache Relief Stick, your legs feel so smooth and minty. Also recommend Rite-Aid's Mint Chocolate Chip.

    Does this cover up leg hair. My legs are just plain hairy. Maybe they should make Jockey hose for men to cover their leg hair. :-)
