So I have a few jars of BE foundation and the Warmth stuff, and I just didn't like it that much, and it makes my face kinda itchy. I was thinking about selling/swapping it, but I found a neat way to use it today. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has done this, but i thought I'd share.

Well I was going on a picnic today, and I wore some bermuda shorts and I was thinking about putting on some full length jeans because I just hated how my legs and feet looked. They just looked like they hadn't seen the light of day in a decade. Kind of splotchy and veiny and pale and blah. I was like "i wish I had some foundation for my legs..."So I took some of the BE foundation and a little bit of the warmth and mixed it up in my body lotion and applied it to my calves, knees, and feet. OMG it was fantastic. It was like a nice tinted moisturizer. It didn't make my legs orange or streaky like self tanners do...it just did exactly what foundation does for my face. It blended perfectly and my legs didn't look a different color then the rest of my body. It just perfectly masked all the flaws I was worrying about. And it didn't irritate my legs like it does my face. Yay!! Has anyone else tried something like this??

I'm sure it doesn't matter what kind of lotion you use, but this is what I used. It's a cherry almond hemp lotion I got at Wal Mart.

Woah! Great idea. I have a few stretch marks on my legs I would love to cover up.

OK, maybe more than a few.

Wow, thanks! I might have to try this one of these days. I have a large jar of BE which I hated because of the itch. Now I might have a real use for it!
