    The best I've ever tried is AirStocking. The "Natural" gives my legs a lovely, ever so lightly tanned look - although there are also darker colours. It covers bruises and blemishes well, and you need soap and water in order to wash it off. I've worn it during quite heavy rain and it still looked perfect afterwards.

    Ooh, sounds good! Where will I get it from? Boots perhaps?

    I got mine from www.glowgirl.co.uk, but I've just done a search and am wondering whether they've stopped making it as it seems really hard to find now. (I'll be really disappointed if they have.)

    I think the one on the glowgirl site is the small, half-sized can, but I've also heard that Sally Hansen do a version called Airbrush Legs - it's cheaper, but I've never tried it before. I've heard that plenty of people seem to like it, though.

    Sorry about getting you all fired up over a product, then discovering it's hard to get hold of these days. :o

    Maybe give the Sally Hansen one a try. They probably stock it in either Boots or Superdrug. If there's a tester, see how it looks on your skin.
  • I like Sally Hansen Airbrush legs. I think it comes in fair and dark and it looks really great and has fantastic staying power!

    That's good to know, thanks, Material Girl.

    When my current supply of AirStocking runs out, I'll definitely try the Sally Hansen one myself.

    Just in case anyone is interested, I haven't been shopping yet so this morning I mixed an old foundation with a non-oily face cream, into a thin mix and rubbed it onto the old pins. It looks and feels fine - certainly good enough for the cool office I work in! I guess it wouldn't do for a hot atmosphere or the rain though:D

    Hi I have a lot of unsightly marks on my legs soI am looking for a makeup that conseals, one that is waterproof and that does not rub off on clothes has anyone used Covermark? These products are all so expensive, I have tried Dermablend, they do a tester set, it works to a degree but I am still looking.
