Bare Legs ?

FueledByAisling

So i love the look of bare pale legs but how do you make them look nice ?
Like yes i wax them , moisturize them and exfoliate them but can you buy any product to make them look good ?

Something the opposite to fake tan ?
Or is buying a pale face & body foundation from MAC my best bet ?

There is some body brush you can buy in the Body Shop that my cousin swears by...I thought she was wearing clear tights her skin looked great...the same brush was featured on xpose last year too..


Cold tho!

the light sally hansen works..
yes its a fake tan, but honestly it doesnt give much colour.. it just makes your legs look flawless..

I really really don't like the look of bare legs outside of holidays - would you not wear some very low denier tights? You get the overall pale bare leg without the chavvy connotations of naked legs!

I'd say just go for it after your usual leg routine (shaving/waxing, exfoliating or whatever). Moistuize well, cover any discolouration/bruises with a little concealer and maybe use a powder/liquid highlighter down the centre for a sheen? That's how I'd play it, thinking of giving it a go myself soon too I'm strictly a tights person, find skin colour tights too dark and unnatural for my pale skin and just refuse point blank to wear fake tan! Au natural is looking like the only way

You could try Benefit's Bathina Body So Fine body shimmer. It's really lovely.

Penneys Luxury Ultra Sheer sunkissed tights are great. I have really pale skin and you can't tell if I'm wearing them at all.
€3 on tights sounds a lot handier than the whole wax/buff/brush/moisturise/conceal routine... Unless you're wearing open-toed shoes in which case tights would not look well

If you have pale legs, the Body Shop have a coconut shimmer body lotion which looks quite nice on pale skin. And smells lovely Think it's about €15.

I'm not so sure how far you want to go with the pale look, but Johnsons do a product for the Asian market that does the opposite of fake tan. I was in Japan for a while and it was actually v difficult to get a body cream that didn't have some of this product in it. I'm sure there are loads of other companies doing it to. You may be able to get it on the net.

Big time! every time i wear these tights I get complimented and told it looks like i'm not wearing tights at all. and they're a bargain
