A rant about Sally Hansen's Airbrush legs(kinda long)
I have been using this product for two years. It works great!
However, in the last two months, they have come out with a 'new and improved' version of this product that is supposeably water proof or whatever.
I have had to exchange my bottle of SH four times!!! When I bring it home to apply, I might spray three times and then...NOTHING COMES OUT>:( ! It's like it gets stuck n there. I've tried using a needle and bobby pin to get down into the nozzle, shaking like crazy and still nothiing comes out.
I bought and exchanged four bottles from CVS. Then I bought one from another store because I thought there was a chance that CVS received a tainted batch.
But alas, the one from Walgreen's lasted 12 sprays.
Now I have two nearly full bottles of SH in medium glow...that are useless.
Is there some sort of scientific reason for this? I keep them in my half-bath so there is no moisture from the shower getting in there. We did have high humidity/heat thing going on for almost two weeks and living reasonably close to the beach, I have no air conditioning....could that have been it?
I am just tired of standing in line at these stores to explain my problem and saving receipts. I am almost paranoid to buy another one. This product really helps me. I use self tanner and it is hard to do feet. This stuff is perfect for blending my feet to my legs, ( I hope that last sentence made sense).
Any ideas as to why this would happen??
I tried looking for info on the makeupalley.com board but found nothing:(

Could you try contacting the company? That suks! It does sound defective. Or you could try soaking the little spray button, but that's a pain. I just started using Jergens Natural Glow lotion, I like it, though next time I think I'll buy the dark instead of medium. I'm always a little leery of spray bottles, they never seem to dispense the right amount.
Re: A rant about Sally Hansen's Airbrush legs(kinda long)
Are you talking about soaking the plastic piece that goes on top of the nozzle? I'll try it.
The thing is: I have had no problems for two years up until just a while ago. but thanks for the advice. I'll try it.
Re: A rant about Sally Hansen's Airbrush legs(kinda long)
Yes, I meant that. Good luck. If it doesn't work, I'd still try to contact them.
Re: A rant about Sally Hansen's Airbrush legs(kinda long)
Maybe you can find the old verson on amazon or ebay and stock up until they fix the problem? That's really lame.
Re: A rant about Sally Hansen's Airbrush legs(kinda long)
Sounds like the "improved" version is thicker...maybe so it will cover more or stay longer. And they didnt change the nozzle size so now it's clogging up.
Call the company....if they get enough complaints they'll fix it.
Re: A rant about Sally Hansen's Airbrush legs(kinda long)
That Sally Hansen's regular one works great and if you spray a real fine mist of hairspray over it...it stays!
Re: A rant about Sally Hansen's Airbrush legs(kinda long)
Yep contact the company they need feedback.
I use this product too and i love it.
Re: A rant about Sally Hansen's Airbrush legs(kinda long)
It happens to me too!!! and it's not the little white nozzle piece, I took the whole thing apart, cleaned it, put it back together, and all I hear is a hiss coming out when I go to spray!
Some stuff too, medium glow, new improved formula. It almost seems like its gets clogged inside the can itself...but air comes out, and sometimes little bubble of the make-up... Grrr! I love tis stuff! I use it every dang night!
Re: A rant about Sally Hansen's Airbrush legs(kinda long)
I have the exact same problem with that stuff >:( heh at least I know I'm not the only one.
I just end up taking off the spray nozzle and pushing down on the silver pin thingie with my finger nail to spray the rest out. It's such a pain in the ass though
Re: A rant about Sally Hansen's Airbrush legs(kinda long)
Ugh! I wound up doing that ^ last night at work because I needed to touch up. What a mess!
So yes, it's certainly defective then...what a bummer!
Re: A rant about Sally Hansen's Airbrush legs(kinda long)
i had that happen with one can before. i snapped off the plastic top and switched it with another top from a previous bottle that worked, and it pretty much solved the problem.
Re: A rant about Sally Hansen's Airbrush legs(kinda long)
im adding to this rant that i can't find the nude color anymore. i'm too pale for the light glow. wtf did stores just stop stocking it or did they stop making it?
Re: A rant about Sally Hansen's Airbrush legs(kinda long)
they strill make it, but less places do seem to carry it :(
