Hi, I was the biggest Tom boy wheni was a child and now im paying for it because i want to wear skirts and dresses but I am aware that my legs have scars on them that are very noticeable. Iam african american and my skin is kind of dry and aliigator-like on my legs so i would like to know what kind of make up to use to cover some of these flaws... shuold i use foundation  or maybe blend in some concealer i dont want to have cakey legs so anyone with a suggestion please help and thanks!

I like the sally hansen leg makeup...I know some don't like it but I found it works pretty well as long as you don't put lotion on just prior & let it dry real well, I have even used it on my arms & shoulders, since it is aerosol you want to put something down on the ground to catch the over spray. It is water resistant not water proof...be careful when you put clothes on it can leave a make up mark...anyway it is worth a try for special occasions...I know dermablend makes a leg makeup but I have never tried it...

If you REALLY want full coverage ...USE DERMABLEND PRODUCTS.  They have all colors and it will stay on all day even in water.  They make a powder to put over it to finish it, but I have always used it without the powder.  The powder to me was not adding anything to it.  It looks great and it will last for YEARS.  Unless you have to cover from head to toe.  I used my little jar for at least two years.

Check it out.  Dermablend is specifically for covering scars.

Dermablend at target? really? since when? I know my mom used to use their makeup years ago, but I remember she had to go to the JCpenney Dermablend counter to get it. And i've never seen it at any of my local targets.
 
Anyway, I would have to agree with the majority. Dermablend is great.
