Body Paint for the Office

By Tamika Edwards

Stylish women can now spray on instead of pull on. The Air Stocking, released by Nissin Medico in Japan last year and now available in the U.S., is applied like spray paint and makes legs appear to be covered by hosiery. Company founder Yoshiumi Hamada says he got the idea for the product while speaking to a female co-worker who complained of wearing hosiery in the heat. Air Stocking costs around $28 a can (yielding 20 to 25 applications), comes in three colors and washes off with soap and warm water. --By Tamika Edwards
