Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs Old Formula

    Hi everyone!
    I know there is already a Sally Hansen thread here somewhere but this is specifically about the old formula of Sally Hansen!
    I am obsessed with airbrush legs by Sally Hansen, it covers the redness on my arms and gives me a natural looking tan, and I find the bottle lasts for ages too!
    But I finally ran out of my bottle and bought a new one last week but noticed its a new formula and it's horrible! It doesn't cover well at all anymore, the old formula was almost like foundation, but the new one goes on very orange and still shows up my redness, and worst of all is the glitter! It used to be natural and matte but the new formula looks like I've become a twilight character, I dont like sparkling!
    Anyway, I was wondering if anyone knows of anywhere I can buy the old formula of this product in Dublin/Kildare/Online. I wouldn't be keen on buying off eBay though. I noticed the new formula doesn't say "Vitamin K" on it like the old ones has.

    Anyway thanks!

    I know they do different shades, are ya sure it was the same shade?

    I didn't realise they brought out a new formula. That explains why my clothes are covered in glitter!!

    I thought I just never noticed the glitter before. I also use it for my arms instead of tan and it's a pain in the back side having the glitter go everywhere.

    They have an Irish Facebook page if you want to contact them there

    Yeah it's definitely a new formula. On the Sally Hansen website everyone is complaining about it.
    I guess I'll just have to try track it down in some chemist somewhere, and last resort; buy online!

    Ah no way I didn't know! I love this stuff and my can is nearly gone. Why the hell do they change something that works so well

    Does anyone else find that there are parts of your legs (especially the middle centre) that just don't get covered properly by the new formula, it kind of glazes over them and leaves them white-ish? Maybe it's just me?

    The new formula doesn't give half the coverage the old one did, it's definitely more watery. The old formula used to cover redness on my knees, the new one just makes them look orangey red now :(

    I was just about to say this, as I work in New Look & came across it last week.

    I too, was sick of the shimmer that Sally Hansen gives off now..

    But this New Look version "tights in a tin" (I know! :p ) does exactly as old Sally Hansen used to and it's a bargin at €4.99 and comes in a medium & dark glow! :)

    Wow this stuff sounds amazing! Do you know if they sell it in the New Look in the Jervis Centre in Dublin city centre? I'll be in there tomorrow...

    Hi

    I got a response from sally Hanson Ireland

    Said they were in the process of reformulating and should be in stores shortly. Whenever that means!

    I the meantime will give tights in a tin a go!
