Achieving the Flawless Look

Ever since I had airbrush makeup done for a fashion show I was in and then again for my wedding day, I swore by it being the best way to apply makeup that not only provides great coverage but lasts all day and night. When I was contacted by a representative of Luminess Air to test out their machine and products, I couldn't have been more excited. I chose the matte package to help combat the heat and humidity here in Florida and it did not disappoint.
The kit arrived complete with the airbrush machine, a bottle of primer, several foundation shades, bronzer, blush, and skin brightener to obtain that beautiful glow.

This past weekend, I packed up my kit and brought it to test out on myself and a friend before heading out for the evening to celebrate the bachelorette. Our makeup stayed looking fresh and matte all evening through dinner and a night of live music and dancing despite the heat and humidity which usually leaves my face looking like an oil slick.
I applied the primer first, then the foundation, a little bit of bronzer and then the skin brightener around our cheekbones before finishing off with some blush. We were both impressed with how light the makeup felt while providing great coverage - much better than our usual powder foundations. It was neat that you only needed a few drops of each product, and it came out in a light mist. We made sure to continue moving the applicator around in steady circles for full coverage while holding the applicator a few inches away from our faces.
If you've always loved the look and finish of airbrush makeup, check out their machines and extensive product line here. You'll be on your way to flawless looking skin that'll stay matte even in the Florida heat and humidity.

  1. I saw when you got this and was super excited to hear your review. It sounds like you liked it? I'd love to try this machine--my airbrushed makeup for my wedding was definitely a favorite! (And so fun that you brought it to a bachelorette party--the perfect way to try it out!)

  3. I've thought about trying an airbrush kit before but never actually done it! Glad to hear you loved it and that the matte was perfect for combating the FL heat! Definitely a plus! <3, Pamela Sequins & Sea Breezes

  8. I've only had my makeup done with airbrushing once before for a wedding and they scared me by saying I couldn't scratch my face or anything because it would come off - since then I've been scared to try it!! But your tutorial was great - need to give it a whirl! xo, Biana -BlovedBoston

  11. I had airbrushing done for the first time this summer for my cousin's wedding. I liked the coverage, but noticed I started to look a bit orange by the end of the night. My sister-in-law said the same has happened to her when she's airbrushed. Not sure why ;( I loved how light the makeup felt though, not cakey at all!

  12. How can I sign up to work with this company?!? ;) Haha I loooove airbrush makeup, it's THE best thing ever! I wore it on my wedding and had my makeup done on Saturday at like 11am and didn't wash my face until Sunday at 8pm (so gross I know!) and it stayed flawless that entire time!

  16. Thanks for this fantastic review. I have never tried airbrush makeup before. I might have to give this a try. I always thought you had to go somewhere to get it done. I did not realize that you could do it at home yourself. Thanks for sharing this with us.

  21. I had airbrush for my wedding day and a few other weddings I was in. It definitely gives a great long lasting look!

  22. That's so awesome that it felt so light, but still gave you plenty of coverage! Plus you can't beat how long it lasts!

  23. I hate to sound up myself, but I am quite confident I looked my most beautiful (that I ever have looked and will ever look again) on my wedding day because the airbrush makeup was just amazing. I can barely put on normal makeup though haha so I don't think I'd be able to do this. I just love that you can dance the night away and it doesn't sweat off!

  28. I've heard great things about this! I think it's a great way to get a flawless look. I've always wanted to try it. I have combo oily skin, so staying matte is always my goal!

  29. What a cool thing to try out! I have always wondered about airbrush makeup. I had mine done once and loved it. I wasn't sure how it would work at home.

  30. I need this!!!! Every time I watch the Kardashians (I shouldn't admit that), I always wish I had a hair/make-up team that could get me ready every morning. Wouldn't that be amazing?!

    ReplyDelete
  31. I haven't ever tried it! It looks like a process, but it lasts all day, so that sounds perfect!

    ReplyDelete
  32. That looks really cool, but I'm always afraid of them for some reason! Maybe some day I will get over my fear!

  33. I have an airbrush makeup system but haven't used it in a while. It gave me the best makeup so I don't know why I don't use it right now haha. Maybe that's a sign I should drag it out tonight and clean it to start using it again!

  44. I've never tried airbrush makeup. I've always been afraid that I'd mess it up or that it'd look fake. This looks like a cool system to use, though. Your review is making me reconsider my previous stance.
