Looks great on bare legs!

22 years ago

Usually I stay to the computer forum and I just read your informative forum here and have not contributed but today I think I can.

Sally Hanson AirSpray for legs. I could not find at WM and KM but in the drugstore under the Sally Hanson heading.I read about it on the internet after seeing it in a magazine. I am in Fl but not too tanned, I got the medium color. Did the top of my leg, fr and back first then the bottom and onto my feet and rubbed the residue onto the top of my toes. feels great and looks pretty good for wearing with dresses and shorts. It is not a tanner but looks more like you "might" have hose on. I sprayed it over a towel since it likely leaves some color to fly onto your flooring. Quick and easy, takes a couple seconds. Pat

:) I'll need to remember that- I've got tan lines upon tan lines- not to mention the dreaded 'teva tan' from biking in sports sandals twice a day three times a week...

and I have a few 'short skirt and high heel' gatherings coming up in the next month or two that I normally respond to with long skirts and bare feet...

I AM the resident old hippy, after all...
maybe I'll shake things up this year ;)

I used this on my legs when I went to a wedding. It worked great. My legs looked liked I had on pantyhose. People couldn't believe it. Next, time I will apply this outside. It is such a fine mist (like spray paint) that it gets all over everything. My white bathroom was covered. Still, this is the best.

I don't know how tall are your hydrangeas and how much space you have in front of them, but since you are in z8 WA, you could grow almost any of the azaleas and rhododendrons there, so by selecting some dwarf or dwarf-ish azaleas or rhodies you could easily solve your problem. You'll have bloom before hydrangeas and evergreen 'bottomskirt' all year around. Few easy choices: Rh. impeditum 15-18" tall, Rh. 'Purple Gem' 18-24" tall, Rh. eriocarpum aka Dwarf Indica aka Gumpo azaleas and most of the Satsuki hybrids azaleas will stay under 2'. If you'll look into this direction your choices will be almost unlimited.

My Scentimental is more red candy striped than pink. I got it last fall from Lowes just before time for it to go into dormancy, so I'm looking forward to seeing it grow. The flower is short lived, although It's supposed to bloom alot.

Bare legged sofa bed..... futon best bet?
Q
Comments (4)
Hi there, I slept on a futon 15 yrs. ago; mattress was thk. fabric, hard on the back, so we put a mattress beneath it. was just fine. carefull though: todays full size mattress's are longer than futon mattress's. And I bought my last futon 6 mo. ago: It has a coiled mattress (not fabric type) and it sleeps fine. But it helps alot to put more padding (featherbed, 4" thk sponges, etc.) underneath or ontop of futon mattress for comfort. They save space and can be used as a sofa. overall a good idea. Also try Ikea stores in USA. for bare legged beds.

I'm not especially pale, but even the "light" was to dark for me! But other than the color problem, I thought the product was neat!

During the second world war, the manufacturing of womens nylons was suspended. All nylon available was used to make parachutes. I remember watching my Aunt Helen get ready to go out for the evening and she would put "leg makeup" on so it looked like she was wearing nylons. All nylons at that time had a seam down the back and sometimes a friend would draw a line down the back of your legs so it would really look like nylons.

If it's not a tanner & is just make-up then won't it run off in rain or with perspiration? I can see it getting all icky behind the knee. Also why not then use a tanner to achieve the same look with several days of coverage?

I tried it too. The directions say to "spray directly into hand and apply on legs". You won't get a mess with over spray. I used the Nude Glow shade.

It does not run and will look good the second day if you do a light leg wash. In florida it is so hot to wear panty hose, I do the bottom half of my legs and somehow it looks more natural than the self tanning ..You do not have to wait after applying it either. I pop it on and go....

I found it yesterday at Walgreen's, but didn't buy it since it was 10 bucks. Now that I've read it won't run, I'll reconsider. I was worried about the humidity here, and the back of the knee sweating part.
