Reese Witherspoon uses this tinted leg serum and it's on rare sale for Prime Day

Reese Witherspoon is known for many things: her charming performances in films like Legally Blonde; her perky, upbeat attitude; her entrepreneurial spirit and, yes, her amazing legs. And, while we know the avid runner works hard to keep her gams toned and strong, when it comes to keeping them red-carpet worthy, the 48-year-old actress has another secret up her, um, pant leg. It's the not-so-subtly named ThisWorks Perfect Legs Skin Miracle cream, which she uses to create an even skin tone and give her calves a golden glow. Right now, for Amazon Prime Day, this premium beauty product is on sale for $48, from $60.

In a print interview with People magazine in 2021, Witherspoon said of Perfect Legs: “This is one of my favorite new products. It just warms up your skin tone a little bit and moisturizes at the same time, but it’s not thick, like body makeup. It’s really lightweight and subtle.”

Why is this a good deal? 💰

This luxurious, premium tinted serum rarely goes on sale. The award-winning, celeb-favorite cream is currently $48 — that's 20% off — the lowest price we've seen all year. Plus, the 5-ounce size is ample, especially since a little goes a long way. And you can use it on your arms, your decolleté — anywhere you're looking to add sun-kissed color.

Why do I need this? 🤔

Winter is literally coming, which means if you want to show a little skin over the next months, you're dealing with ultra-pasty legs, arms and chests. Unlike most self tanners, Perfect Legs is subtle and natural-looking and works instantly to blur skin imperfections, leaving behind a pretty, caramel-hued glow (you don't need to wait hours for the formula to activate). It's also fast-absorbing and buildable (you choose the tint level you want). The non-greasy cream is temporary, easily washable and suitable for all skin tones. Best of all, the formula is thoughtfully designed to be good for your skin; It's packed with skin-nourishing ingredients like vitamins C and E to help even out tone, and arnica to help fade bruises.

What reviewers say 💬

Pros 👍

"So good! Natural looking! No streaks!" raves one 5-star reviewer. "In the past I’ve tried loads of different fake tans and I just can’t do it. I always end up patchy and orange. I was recommended this. Wow it was so easy to do — no streaks at all and the color is matched my natural color perfectly. It’s kept my legs nicely hydrated for a couple of days. I’m prone to dry legs so this is brilliant for me. Smells ok too, doesn’t linger for too long either."

"Expensive but 100% worth it," proclaimed another happy customer. "It does make your legs look gorgeous and attractive. It makes the skin look more even and beautifully colored. I like the smell; it’s summery and nice. It is good value for money, as a little goes a long way and does work very, very well."

One fair-limbed fan explained: "I have the palest skin, it looks blue at times. This product goes on easily and looks so natural! No streaking or orange look. I wish I had bought this sooner. I don't mind the smell at all. My skin feels lovely too. I cannot recommend it enough."

Cons 👎

Most reviewers who left poor reviews were disappointed in the scent (which, for me is medium-strong, but not unpleasant): "Color was nice, but I couldn't stand the smell!" complained one dissatisfied buyer.

Another big downside for reviewers was the cost: "Too expensive for an average product," conveyed one. "So-so coverage. It’s fine but not great."
