    Default Sally Hansen leg cream... but what about the rest of me?

    As some of you have already read, I had to use an almost seven-foot human shield to avoid someone I know in the club Saturday. Seriously, I have the utmost respect for you ladies who give no fucks about who knows, but I just don't currently have the capacity to deal with the shit storm that would ensue if I were to be discovered by my family. Anyway, another club isn't exactly the best option right now (Houston politics), so I am changing up my appearance. In addition to a wig and covering my most noticeable tattoo, I want to use the washable Sally Hansen leg makeup, since I am normally one of like three pale girls in southeast Texas.

    I use the lightest shade of makeups that actually have porcelain options, so would the light leg makeup be enough to make me look vaguely tanned, or should I go for medium? Also, is this stuff okay to put on the rest of your body? Even if it's okay for the torso, I'd still be concerned about putting it on my face. Would mixing a "tanned taupe" foundation with my porcelain one probably suffice?

    And, last questions, if I sweat some during work, will the cream version of the leg makeup still hold up, and will I need to reapply throughout wearing it? I've read mixed reviews.

    Thanks!

    I've heard great things about a body makeup by DuWop brand, I think you can use it all over (face & bod)..they were the first to come out w/lip venom that makes lips look fuller. There's a brand called Hard Candy, they make a coverup called Glamoflauge, it's supposed to be great for tatts. Some Wal marts (not all) carry it, or it's on Ebay.
    If you go w/Sally H. cream (I bought it but returned it cause of the mixed reviews) get the light one. I am light too, can sometimes use med. in things, but that looked off (I tried it on in the store).
    I used & liked on my legs, the Jergens grad. tan lotion, I buy the darkest one though, it doesn't show up very dark, the lighter one barely registers any color.
    Not sure about your other ?'s hth

    -the light shade will still give you a tan
    -pick whatever color you choose. I am pale and I have worn every shade and it looks fine
    -its fine for your body and face. I don't use it on my face tho cuz in the dark lighting my pale face stands out and doesn't look weird
    -it will rub off a little but not in splotches and not to the point of reapplying. youll just be a little lighter and your clothes will be a little browner.

    Since your clothes will be a little browner you will make other people brown while giving them dances. I would feel like a major jerk if I stained someones clothes. I think the wig will be enough. If you need a good wig store let me know! Hard Candy concealer is insane for covering tattoos. It has the same coverage as Dermablend and Kat Von D. If you do end up using the tanner use a foundation that matches. It is easy.

    ^I kind of wanted to do the leg makeup because I have some very distinctive scars on my leg. They're not small enough to be individually concealed with Glamoflage since they stretch from my knee to my hip, and anyone who knows me would recognize them :/ I ordered a white blonde wig yesterday, and it should get here tomorrow. I have no idea how to make it stay on though! I'm about to watch a YouTube video...

    I may just end up going with the wig and concealing the tattoos. I'm really weird about what I put on my skin anyway, but I guess we'll see how different I can look with radically different hair and some makeup tricks.

    i would NEVER put that stuff on my face..ick! major break out time lol, but the rest of your body is just fine, i do it every shift and i use the lightest one too! if you are super pale and use the dark stuff, the smears will show up much more and it will make you look dirty instead of tanned. in the black iight, i'd just do my regular face makeup with some extra bronzer..out in the sun it will look strange but in the club it works.
    on a side note, if you want to go darker, i'd use the loreal semi-permanent one that you keep applying every night til you get nicely brown, then the darker sally hansen cream won't look as streaky
