3 steps to great looking legs!
Step 1 – Dissolve: Use the Leg Appeal products to get the most flawless sunless tan you have ever had. This 3 step system will ensure that your legs look amazing during these months that we dare to bare. At night, before going to bed, use the Leg Peel. Apply to the skin and leave on all night. The enzymes and alpha hydroxy acids will loosen the dead skin to not only smooth the skin but get rid of any dead skin buildup that will interfere with the perfect sunless tan.
Step 2 – Scrub: Use the Leg Apeel Leg Scrub to remove yesterday’s skin and reveal that sexy Summer skin that lies underneath. While you are at it, use the Microdermabrasion Body Buffing Cream to aggressively remove the dead skin on the rest of your body.
Step 3 – Tan: Apply a sunless tanning product. For the darkest tan, apply Leg Apeel sunless tanning lotion. This is not only for use on the legs, you can use it anywhere on the body. If you prefer a more gradual tan, you can use the Triple Glow gradual tanning lotion. To get the best application without streaking, I always recommend applying to the skin, then smoothing over with a body lotion to ensure that you have gotten a very even distribution of color. Remember, the active ingredients in sunless tanning products react to dead skin, so steps 1 and 2 are very important in ensuring that you have don’t have areas of compacted skin that can lead to an unnatural color application.
