Try Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs...it's at the drug store/Target. It's about $10 and works nicely. I think I watched a You Tube video to see how to apply it correctly!

ETA: Here's a video. Spray into your hands, not directly onto your legs...I made that mistake once.

I use the cream now- I like it better. Goes on smoother and I feel there is less waste and you get more for your money. A tube lasts longer than the spray bottle

it is made to make you look tan regardless so I don't think you need to go darker. I wear the medium. I have a fair complexion that does tan a bit in the summer- I am fair, but not like ghost white or porcelain white.

Some other tricks: (I wear this almost daily so I know!)

Apply sparingly. A little goes a long way. The more you rub it in the better it looks. At first it can look orange- keep rubbing and spreading it.

Apply it outisde or near natural light. I go in my yard when the weather permits. Or if not right near a window or glass door. The first time I used it I did it in my bathroom which is not the best lit and has no natural light. It looked great! Then I stepped outside and it was all streaky and I had missed spots. Chat Icon

Make sure to take it down to your feet and just blend it until it's under your foot so you don't have lines of demarcation on your feet and ankles

It will be on your sheets if you sleep with it on. In the shower, you will need to use a washcloth or loofah to get it off- if you just shower and not really scrub your legs it will stay on.
If it does get on your sheets, it's not a big deal- it comes right out in the laundry with no issues

In winter months I use the Sally Hansen airbrush legs for functions. It is like wearing pantyhose without all the discomfort

I use a neutrogena spray tan in an orange can that looks natural.
