Date Night Prep

This post was sponsored by Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs as part of an Activation for Influence Central. I received complimentary products to facilitate my review.Do you guys find it really hard to schedule date nights in the summer? They are definitely not spontaneous and my husband and I usually have to put them on the calendar weeks in advance. Then we have to figure out which grandma is available, pack up the kids for an overnighter and drive them a few towns over. These aren’t the easy, going out to dinner dates of the past. With this much effort to schedule them, they have become an event. And since they are so few and far between, I like to make them as special as possible. For me that means getting my makeup done by someone who really knows what they are doing and getting dressed up for a special night out. It might be a splurge, but adding a little extra “me time” in to my date night prep is multi-tasking at its finest. Because of all the running around to get the kids off to grandma’s, etc. having my makeup done at my house is a must! It sounds like a luxury, and it totally is. But like I said, this does not happen often. My favorite way to find a talented makeup artist is to the use the Priv app. You just type in your zip code and see which artists are available for the time you need them.
I just let Yara (my fantastic Orange County makeup artist) know what look I wanted and she worked her magic. It was so much more relaxing than if I was at a makeup counter getting it done and worrying about what time I would be finished and if I would hit traffic on my way home. But Priv doesn’t just do makeup, you can find people to do hair, nails, massages, personal training and more. What really pushed me to set up my Priv appointment was that from now until August 31, 2016, customers who book a service through Priv receive a complimentary Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs leg makeup application! I’m kind of obsessed with Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs leg makeup. It leaves my legs looking flawless! It’s a cult-classic beauty product and I totally see why! I LOVE how my makeup turned out! It’s so fun to get a little bit of a different look than you normal have. And with my face done, I could think about the rest of my look for date night including great looking legs.
I tried out this product for the first time a few months ago and fell in love. The idea of having a professional apply it for me, where I could learn the proper way to put it on, was awesome. I never get the knees or ankles right! My Priv artist had all of the colors on hand so we could make sure to find the perfect match for my skin. Plus I got to keep the bottle when she was done which means my legs will look great for all the rest of my summer dates! That’s not to say that this product is only for special occasions. It’s easy enough to use daily if you really want to put your best legs forward!This is not a self tanner which I love. It’s temporary, water-resistant leg makeup that makes your legs look awesome and doesn’t rub off! I’ve worn it with white dresses and slept in white sheets and didn’t have any marks left behind. It easily washes off with soap and water so don’t worry thinking this product is hard to use. I really love this product! If you can’t have a Priv professional come to your house, here is the best way to apply Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs Leg Makeup:

Read the directions on the can to get familiar. Spray the makeup directly in to your hand and then rub them together to distribute. Starting at the top of the leg rub the makeup on your thigh, skip your knee and continue to your calf. When you have covered your leg, go back up to your knee and lightly rub hands over. Then do the same with your ankles and top of your feet. You want to put a little bit on those areas but you don’t want to do them first as the knees and ankles can look really wrong with too much on them. Let dry for 60 seconds and then you can get dressed and go about your day! Be sure to wash it off your hands with soap and water!
My skin is really light and I had hesitated on using this product for years because I wasn’t sure how it would look on my skin tone. But I think it looks awesome. It definitely makes me feel more confident in shorts and short dresses. It dries really fast and feels great going on. If you’ve been wondering about Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs Leg Makeup, you should check out the Priv app, and book a service, so you can try out their complimentary Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs application. Or make this in to a date night activity and book a massage for 2 (check to see if it is available in your area), get your leg makeup application and then head out to dinner. Boom. While I may not have a professional do my makeup for every date night, I certainly will have great legs thanks to Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs Leg Makeup!
