Subtle Tan?

I am naturally very fair. I'd like to get a little subtle color on my legs as we get into spring and summer. I am not interested in tanning, and I've had a bad experience with sunless tanner (granted, I was very young and it was for a play, but still). Has anyone had any  success with Jergen's natural glow lotion, Sally Hansen's Airbrush legs, or something similiar. I don't want to look tan, I just want a little bit of color to even things out and not look quite so stark. Thanks!

Re: Subtle Tan?

  • There was a post on this board a while back with some raves about the Sally Hansen's AIrbrush legs. Apparently it stays on well and gives a little bit of colour. I've tried the Jergen's natural glow lotion and like it, but it can get a little patchy if you don't put it on properly (oops). I'm naturally very fair and have used the lotion for a little bit of colour and I'm happy with the product. 

      

  • I have a job where I wear suits often, and probably really should wear panty hose.  I ran to the drustore the other day when I ran out of hose, and noticed this stuff right by the hose called Studio 35 Beauty Bare Legs.  Remembering people on here rave about the Sally Hansen stuff, I grabbed it.  OMG, I LOVE this stuff!  It is awesome.  It gives my legs nice, even color, and even has a tiny bit of shimmer to them so I feel like I can get away with not wearing hose.  It goes on without streaking, dries fast, and doesn't come off until you shower.

    Because I love so many of your other recs I'd like to track this stuff down. Where did you find it? I've been using Jergans natural glow and have been pretty happy but I do get streaky at times.
