IStockphoto/Most people know that can work miracles to cover up blemishes and dark spots on your face. But, did you ever consider using makeup elsewhere on your body - like your legs? More than 20 percent of Americans have varicose veins, and many more let scars, freckles and other insecurities dictate their wardrobes to hide unsightly flaws on the skin.But there is an option that's better than wearing long pants every month of the year: body makeup. It's a thicker version of traditional foundation that you use on your face. In fact, it's made to be applied everywhere except your face - arms, stomach, back and of course legs. And, while face makeup is marketed mainly to women, body makeup is used by both men and women to cover up veins, cuts, scars, bruises and even.
Summer is almost here — and that means it's time to throw your black tights in the trash, set the trash on fire, and break out ALL your shorts, skirts, and dresses.That's right, friends: sun's out, legs out. And for many people, adding a touch of leg makeup helps them feel their summer best.But which leg makeup is the best for summer? Which product will give me the glossy, perfected legs of a Malibu Barbie?There was only one way to find out. I tested five different leg makeup products, ranging in price from $12 to $52, to find out which one(s) would give me the Barbie legs of my summer dreams.

From left to right, we have.Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs leg makeup ($12, ).St. Tropez One Night Only wash off bronzing mist ($20, )Say Hello to Sexy Legs tinted glow gel ($38, )Sephora Collection Perfection Mist Airbrush Foundation ($28, )This Works Perfect Legs Sculpt and Shine ($52, )All of these products do slightly different things — some bronze, some highlight, some conceal, some do a little of all three — but all promise, in one way or another, to give one perfect Barbie legs.Let's begin. Not only did my leg makeup look patchy up close, the Sexy Legs gel ($38, ) also wore off very quickly. It was coming off on my hands when I touched it, even after it died. It was all over the inside of my black skirt. If I.thought. about it, it wore away.
This was TOO MUCH.And! The quick-drying formula made it impossible to fix up those worn-away or faded areas — because re-applying the wet gel made any dry gel it touched look even streakier. This was truly the Kobayashi-Maru of leg makeup tests. I eventually settled for a sub-bar, semi-streaky leg look. This foundation ($28, ) opened my eyes to why people swear by a little light leg makeup. Instead of dramatically changing my skin tone, it matched my complexion.
It evened out the look of my skin without making it seem like I was doused in spray paint. It made my legs look like MY legs — just even more beautiful.Best of all, this makeup dried down in under two minutes, and did not get on any of my clothing. It also didn't sweat off under the hot lights of our studio — making it perfect for summer nights.I finally got it. I found that the Sephora mist foundation ($28, ) was, as all the spray products tended to be, easy to apply by yourself. Unlike the Sally Hansen product, though, the Sephora spray was sheer, with a slightly dewy finish.
This meant that I could spritz a little extra over areas like scars or bruises, then blend out with a foundation brush, for some additional coverage.And THAT'S what really sold me on this product: This leg makeup actually blends! There were no issues with weird lines or blobs or bald patches, which was a rarity amongst the products I tried. I used a stippling brush to blend around my knees, but I also had good results with a sponge.
