Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs Review

Happy Hump day!  This is a great product for tan looking legs, in an instant!  Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs at Ulta for $12.99. I’ve been using self tanner for over 40 years.  I still can’t seem to get it right on my feet.  I’m fairly pale, so getting the color right is never easy.  I used Light Glow.

I remember my mother using an Avon product in the 1960’s that was similar to this.  She sold Avon, and was always trying new products.  She was a redhead, so she didn’t tan.

It worked really well, as she had very nice legs.  Here’s some info from the Ulta website:

Tanning and pantyhose are so yesterday. Now you can give your legs a makeover in just seconds. No sun. No salon. No streaks. Just flawless looking, irresistible, sexy legs. This light-weight leg makeup, enriched with palmaria extract, enhances the coverage of freckles, veins and imperfections. Helps stimulate microcirculation for healthier and firmer looking legs and feet. Plus it’s water and transfer resistant. Bare legs are nice. Airbrush Legs are irresistible.

Here are the instructions:

Shake well. Spray directly into hand and apply on legs. Blend evenly and completely. Allow to set for 60 seconds before dressing. Removes easily with soap, water and a washcloth.

The first time I used it, was as above. The second time I merely sprayed it directly on my legs, and spread it around.  I put my foot on my washcloth over the tub, as it does go everywhere.  It was easy to clean up, and looks great.

You get 4.4 ounces and I showered with it on, and it didn’t come off.  It’s water resistant and really looks natural. It does not come off on your clothes.  I will definitely be purchasing this again.

Nail Stamping-Oh how I love thee!

Happy Saturday!  I did a post on this nail stamping kit recently, but I bought another one, and just had to share. I bought this one at Ulta for $12, (I had a coupon, it’s normally $15).  Well, it seems Ulta doesn’t carry these anymore. Caption Art Screens Nail Stamping this is the website that has kits that contain 24 designs for $30.  I’m so glad I got them when I did.

I put this design on last Saturday, and touched up the tips twice.  I used drugstore polish, and Julep Oxygen Nail treatment as a base coat.

If you want to try something fun with your nails, I highly recommend this stamping kit.  Super easy to use, and lots of fun designs.

Sally Hansen Insta- Dry Top Coat-Review

Sally Hansen Insta DryLet me start off by saying I’ve been painting my nails for more than 40 years.  Now you may think I’m older than dirt, but I know a thing or three about make-up.  I do my own nails and have for years.  I’ve neglected my nails for long periods of time, especially when my son was small, I was going to school and working full time.  I discovered Sally Hansen Insta- Dry Top coat a few years ago.  Before I discovered this awesome top coat, painting my nails was usually an ordeal, that’s why I did it so rarely.

This top coat changed everything for me.  That sounds corny, but when you don’t have a lot of time to wait around for your nails to dry, you just don’t do your nails.  I now do my nails before I go to bed.  You heard correctly, right before I go to bed.  No sheet imprints, smudges, anything.  It is simply amazing.

My co-workers tease me because I have different polish on every other day.  I’m in to nail art these days, so I go a little longer with the same polish.  You simply apply your regular polish, wait two minutes, and then apply the Insta-Dri.  After 30 seconds, it’s dry to the touch.  I go to bed, and wake up with a perfect manicure.  Our two dogs sleep with us, and I toss and turn a lot when I sleep, but nothing smudges my polish.  I only wish this stuff came in a bigger bottle.  It works with any brand of polish. Try it; you will be glad you did.  I usually buy it at Wal-Mart for under $5. When I’ve used the top coat with Sally Hansen polish, it looks like a gel manicure, and lasts for days without a touch up.  It’s nice to find a product that actually does what it’s advertised to do.
