Leg Makeup FAQ

QUESTION:
"I've heard that you can use makeup to make legs look slimmer. How?"

ANSWER:
To create the illusion of slimmer legs, dab a touch of highlighter like Benefit's Bathina Shimmer Balm ($28; sephora.com) down the center of each leg, blending well to ensure a natural effect. And according to makeup artist Linda Hay, who works with Heidi Klum, "Legs look leaner and more toned when they have a bit of a glow." Try a bronzing lotion like Scott Barnes Body Bling ($38; scottbarnes.com), and apply in a circular motion to prevent streaking.
