I have pasty white legs, and don't tan. What're some good low- to mid-range products that I could use to make them look as good as possible? I am not in the market for self-tanner, I want nothing semi permanent, just cosmetic. I am thinking something that has a little coverage to even out skin tone, and perhaps something with a little shimmer/sheen?
Any suggestions?
It sets pretty well and it does have slight shimmer to it, but no chunky glitter bits. It's not matte at all. They do run a bit light though - I had to purchase their tannest color for to even my pasty white legs out to match my NC30 face... so I recommend you bump yourself up a shade when purchasing. I haven't had any issues with smearing or transfer to clothing, however I'm a bit of a sucker for LBD's, so I can't really tell you if it may affect lighter colored clothing. Hope that helps! =D

Sally Hansen's airbrush legs is around $10 and does a great job evening out my legs when I wear dresses. Find it at ur local drugstore. =]

I've heard that can be super matte, but I guess I could put a shimmer lotion on top? Or would it smear...?
