Just love Dove derma spa mousse in medium/dark & I’m naturally fair. Looks authentic, goes on really well and don’t think it highlights blemishes at all

Farmor Sally Hansen also produce a light/fair tan, which is excellent.

Yes, I use the light one most of the time and the medium one when I have a bit of a tan (not often). I have some broken veins right on the front of my shin which always looks like a bruise. Normally I don't worry bout it, but now and again when I am going somewhere special I use Sally Hansen to cover it.

Of dear, reminds me of the gravy browsing used during the war when stockings were very hard to buy.
Really showing my age now.

I bought Sally Hansen "airbrush legs", described as leg makeup that would cover all kinds of imperfections. It was expensive, similar price to Aura, but it was so dark I had to rub most of it off as quickly as possible and hard to get it on evenly.
Maybe Aura is better!

Has anyone tried the new fake leg tan Aura, Especially for mature, veined , age spot legs , ? It’s advertised as formulated to cover this blemishes unlike other fake tans that seem to emphasise rather than disguise , it’s on offer at the moment at £16.99.
I am tempted with not having much success with other tanners. Is it too good to be true?
