Out of the blue, I received a package from Influenster with a sample of Sally Hansen's Airbrush Legs lotion (pictured on the right). I already had the Airbrush Legs Spray-On (on the left) so I'm familiar with the product. I was excited to test out the lotion because the spray-on stuff I bought was a little too dark for my complexion and it dries very quickly so it's not easy to rub in to tone down the color.
The light color that Influenster sent is much better suited for my skin complexion (how did they know?) and looks really natural on my legs. My goal for this summer was to work on my tan but the past few weeks of rain has seriously put a damper on any outdoor plans so my legs still fall in the fairly pale category. After applying the lotion though, they have a nice sun-kissed complexion which I really like.

I much prefer the lotion to the spray-on Airbrush Legs because it's easy to rub in and spreads evenly for a more natural look. I feel like the spray is a little messier to apply but it also doesn't help that I purchased the wrong color. What I like about both products is that they're water resistant so it doesn't run or make a mess if you happen to encounter humid weather or sweat in the summer heat.
I've worn the lotion out and about a few times and it lasted all day so I will purchase the lotion when the small tube runs out and probably give away the spray-on can to a friend with slightly darker skin (Kate, you want it?). Oh and yes that is an old faded tattoo on my ankle from college days, if you were wondering. It desperately needs to get a touch-up.
Have you used any of Sally Hansen's Airbrush Legs products before? What did you think?
The
sample size Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs lotion was given to me
complimentary from Influenster to test and review. The review above is
my own honest opinion.
ah that looks great! a cheaper alternative when i don't use my tan towels. speaking of which, i need to reapply. i'm looking awfully pale. haha

Crazy enough, I have never tried the airbrush legs but I definitely need to try it now! I haven't laid out in weeks so I am SO pale!

I have the spray and I was curious about the lotion. I can only use the spray when I'm tan bc otherwise it's wayyyy too dark. I wish that they had more color choices in general.
ReplyDeleteMy friend uses both and had the same exact comment as you!! I like that the lotion is travel size because it's perfect for vacations! xo, Biana -BlovedBoston
ReplyDeleteGah! Influenster apparently sent this to my old address (out of the blue, as well!) and it's never been forwarded! Which sucks, because I A) was super excited to try it once I realized they'd sent it, B) am in desperate need of a little color on my pasty white legs (despite wearing nothing but shorts for a month now) and C) I have gotten no response from them when I let them know I didn't get it! --Dorrie @ Rt 1 US 1
ReplyDeleteOoh that looks really nice! I was afraid of the spray but would definitely use the lotion.
ReplyDeleteI totally received that stuff too and I have my review of it up for tomorrow :) I really liked the color that it added to my pale skin so I will probably be grabbing a tube when I am finished with the sample as well. I am afraid of sprays. Is that weird? Like I feel the room for error is far too great haha.
ReplyDeleteYour legs look awesome, love that this looks more natural! And I hear ya.. this rain has got to stop, my tan is almost completely faded away. But the bright side is we live in FL, and have many more weeks to get sun-kissed :)
ReplyDeleteIt looks very natural, glad you found a better color to suit your skin tone.
