Why Airbrush Makeup?

 Image and wording from Luminess Air
The Luminess Air is an Airbush Cosmetics System you might have seen on an infomercial, TV talk show or featured in major magazines. This system is what the professional make-up artists use but now everyday gals like me can! You don't have to be a trained makeup artist or makeup expert to start enjoying airbrush beauty. 



I am a very lucky girl because I received a kit to try out and keep. I love how easy it is to use. Foundation and blush can be applied in a minute. The makeup doesn't cake like conventional makeup. By the way, if you think for a moment you might be able to airbrush wrinkles away, sorry that's a wish! I did like the fact I felt like I wasn't wearing any foundation. According to Luminess Air, all of their foundations are preservative free, alcohol-free, oil-free, and mineral based. More than just Foundation. Luminess Air features a full range of color cosmetics especially designed to be airbrushed. Achieve makeup application with ease with Eye Shadows, Blushes, Bronzers, Skin Care, Highlighters and more.



According to Luminess these are some benefits of airbrushing...






  • Minimizes the appearance of uneven skin tone, fine lines, wrinkles and pores

  • Weightless makeup that never looks fake

  • Light to maximum coverage


  • Blends with your skin for a seamless color match

  • Trusted by dermatologists because it eliminates the cross-contamination that makeup brushes and sponges can cause

 The Airbrushing Kit costs approximately $229.00 and includes the airbrush system, metallic storage kit, 4 Shades of foundation, blush and bronzer, and a DVD. There is the option to purchase a trial system beforehand for 30 days, which brings the price down to $29.95. If you like it, you can choose to purchase it. To purchase the makeup individually, it seems to be priced about what department stores charge for cosmetics.


How it works...

    Why airbrush makeup? The airbrush is simple to use and very easy to learn. It's also a quick way to apply makeup. Plug the machine into an outlet. Then add a couple of drops of airbrush foundation (you can mix shades) to the stylus. Then spray.  You can use the eye shadow, bronzer and blush in the stylus also. Cleaning it is simple - add a couple of drops of water into the applicator, and spray the water out into the sink. This removes the leftover cosmetics and keeps your system sanitary and ready to use for your next spray.
