Airbrush Makeup

We don’t want to sound brash but airbrushing on makeup is light years ahead of conventional makeup systems like dry powders and liquid foundations systems. You may have heard of someone who spent up to £300 for a single airbrush makeup session. You may have heard of airbrush makeup for brides, you may have heard of airbrush cosmetics for the stars. Airbrush was once for the elite, and now is available for home use for anyone. Airbrush systems are versatile, you can airbrush on your foundation, blush, bronzer, body makeup, and body sprays. And then you can also airbrush on temporary hair highlights, tattoo cover cosmetics, skin tanning and so much more.

Airbrush systems in the past have been very difficult to use, expensive and hard to get. Luminess Air changed everything with the innovation of the first Pro-consumer based airbrush system. Luminess Air™ airbrush systems feature a highly precise airbrush stylus, air compressor and makeup. Many systems in the past could cost over £1,000 each. Luminess Air™ broke the price barrier by introducing everyone to Airbrush cosmetics at about 1/6th the cost compared to the past. One use any you will instantly know that this is not a “fad” or “gimmick!” It really is better than you can imagine, and you will understand that the amazing value Luminess Air brings to you.

History behind airbrush cosmetics

Originally Airbrush makeup was developed for the film industry as conventional makeup would look harsh under dramatic lighting. Conventional powders and liquid makeup could not keep up with the flawless smoothness produce by airbrush. And recently, airbrush makeup has become the standard with the advent of High Definition TV. HDTV is so incredibly sharp that wrinkles, laugh lines and even brush strokes from conventional makeup show up on television. Naturally, airbrush cosmetics came to the rescue as the results of airbrush makeup looks like natural flawless skin and not like “caked-on” - “baked-on” makeup that was the result of powders/minerals and conventional liquid makeup systems.

How does airbrush makeup work?

Airbrush makeup is sprayed on through the Luminess Air styles as a fine mist of color that gently covers the skin, giving the appearance of a flawless complexion. Spraying micro-dots of Luminess Air makeup on the surface of the face looks more natural than traditional makeup because it isn't rubbed into the skin and doesn’t exaggerate the pores. This process allows the Airbrush makeup to conceal better while enabling your skin to breathe.

How is airbrush makeup different?

Traditional foundations can look obvious, caked-on or thick and always feel like you are wearing makeup. Airbrush makeup leaves a light, seamless blend of color over the skin, creating the illusion of a perfect face because it is misted on, allowing your true skin tone to show through without masking your face. The ability to mix Luminess Air Airbrush foundation colors for individual custom blends is unsurpassed, resulting in a most natural look that covers skin imperfections.

Airbrush Myth

Am I going to spray makeup into my eye or on my hair or clothes?

Virtually impossible, Airbrushing is not like spraying out of an uncontrollable spray-can. Airbrushing gives very precise delivery of makeup and it only goes on when you gently touch the stylus application button. Did you know that the Luminess Air™ patent pending airbrush system blows air comparable to that of a whisper? The secret to airbrushing is the intense control of air.
