When you pass by a Sephora or Ulta or Nordstrom… are you ever on the hunt for THE perfect makeup? Those products that will give you that “glow” and a more natural look? What will make you always look like you’ve just had your makeup professionally done?
Ever thought about using an airbrush makeup system to get that look? If you have… but had doubts about it…let’s chat.
I bet you think that airbrush systems…
- are too expensive.
- are a mess to clean up.
- require a ton of time – (ain’t no one got time for that!)
- are only for special occasions
- are too tricky to figure out how to use.
Am I right about your doubts? I had those exact same thoughts. I love the look of airbrush (when I had it done for special occasions/weddings), but wondered how crazy complicated it would be to do myself and if I would need to wake up 30 minutes earlier to add this step in my morning routine.
As Shape Magazine said, “the machine took care of everything”…meaning, this tiny Luminess Air machine does it all. Debunked all of my doubts and much more!
- Coverage without any cakey or heavy appearance of makeup
- Creates a dewey to slightly matte finish
- Camera-ready complexion
- Inexpensive
- Perfect color matching
- Easy and quick cleanup
- Simple to use
- Takes up less space than my other makeup products
- Gives me a beautiful and natural look with minimal products
It won BEST in Beauty Awards and here’s why…
CLEANUP: When you use the machines you only need to add a few drops of your foundation or blusher or highlighter to the stylus. After applying the product, just spray out the rest (if any remains) onto a tissue and you are DONE with cleanup. That’s it! No lie.
LASTING POWER: The makeup lasts a really long time during the day and the bottles of makeup last longer than other foundations I’ve used.
NATURAL GLOW: The airbrushing technique allows for a light, dewey finish. It blends so beautifully while seamlessly matching to your skin. Feels like you’ve had your makeup professionally done…because it looks perfect and pretty.
BETTER FOR YOUR SKIN: I’m using much less product with the airbrush system and I am not blobbing a beauty blender all over my skin day after day (think germs) which clogged my pores.
APPLICATION – takes no time! To start, I add about 3 drops of the primer to get going and airbrush that to my face. Next I add about 5 drops of the foundation to the stylus of the airbrush machine to apply all over. If I happen to have a blemish (gasp), I will get in close to my face (about 1 inch away) to cover that before moving the airbrush about 5 inches from my face to apply the foundation. The amounts/drops I put in the stylus always gets used up (so I don’t need to clean the stylus between each new product). Then I add 3 drops of the blush to the stylus to apply. That’s plenty! From there I use about 2 drops of the brightening glow just to accent the cheekbones. Done.
Natural. Healthy. Covers imperfections/redness. Lasts all day long – I’m hooked on how easy it is to get that natural looking glow. FINALLY. My skin even looks better without makeup because I’m not clogging my pores like I did before!

Disclaimer: I received this airbrush system from Luminess Air in exchange for this review but all opinions are my own.
I don’t wear makeup, so I had no idea that an airbrush system was a thing. It sounds wicked cool.
I’ve wondered about airbrushing for quite some time. Thanks for doing such a detailed review — you have me thinking about it much more seriously now!
Love this !!!! I have been eating to try something like this for so long I definitely need to take the leap.
I only wear makeup on the weekends and honestly it’s so very little something like this wouldn’t really get used here. My oldest would totally use this! Tucking this idea away for a birthday present idea.
How much does it cost ? I had one of these used on my face once years ago and it worked a treat! I loved how as you said made your skin feel dewy and natural!
Check out the options they have at their site…just click on the link (or any photo) to get you there. 🙂
Wow, I didn’t know normal people could buy an airbrush system. I’d love for my face to look more natural when I have makeup on. I’m going to look into this.
What a flawless finish! I have always wanted to know how these worked and thought they were just for beauty professionals.
Wow… it looks so natural on you! I would love this for special occasions when I need to look spectacular! Thanks for sharing!
Oh my word. I have always wanted to try this, but it scares me so much. I am so inexperienced with makeup!
I have never even seen a product like this! I always take the perfect amount of time to get ready, so I might enjoy it. Your review is amazing
I’m not surprised but I had not idea air brushing cosmetics could be done at home.
Ooh I’d love to try this. I love trying new beauty products that others may find bizarre. Great review, makes me want one!
It woud be good to have this machine, helping to give neat make up. I have clumsy hands, I wonder if using this machine I will not mess my face, but to be honest would love to try it.
Honestly – its almost fool proof. Its super easy to apply – you will get a great natural look!
this is such an interesting concept since I actually DO own an airbrush that I use for my art! lol the thought of using one for makeup is s fun to think about -oh the possibilities 😉
I’ve never tried these before but I’ve always been curious. I’m terrible at applying stuff. thanks for sharing
This looks divine! And you are right, I had a number of those misconceptions definitely, but I am so happy to learn a system like this is not overly expensive and can be used every day. Your skin looks fantastic! XO

I had no idea airbrushing was a thing! I thought it was a technique on PicMonkey. Boy, I certainly could use some education on make up huh?
It really is a unique idea and I enjoy fashion and makeup blogs. I feel I’m constantly learning something new about some new product out there. Plus, I like when real people recommend it too, makes me want to try it out!
I don’t really wear makeup because my skin hates me if I do. However, I know many girls right now who are on the hunt for the perfect makeup, as you mentioned. I will pass this along!
I’ve been curious about airbrush makeup for a while, thanks for sharing. Hopefully I’ll get a chance to try it out!

I honestly think I would mess this up! It looks good on you and I appreciate airbrush, though!

Your pictures look fantastic!! I don’t think i’d be very good at putting this on myself, but it would be fun to do on someone or get it done by someone!
I have never thought about an airbrush system fro home. It does give a beautiful flawless look. I usually spend 10 minutes tops on my morning makeup. Not sure how long this would take.
I got I am air brush makeup
Obsessed!!!! I use to model and that’s how the pros make skin look flawless 😉
You don’t even look like you have makeup on! I don’t wear a ton of makeup (just mascara and lipstick) but this would be perfect for photoshoots or even special occasions.
Yes! These are the same concerns I have with airbrush makeup.
I love how simple (3 drops?!) it is to apply, and it’s a breezing for cleaning, too! You look fabulous and flawless!
I’ve always been so scared of an airbrush machine. I’d love to learn how to use it! Do you use yours daily or just on the high holidays?

This looks quite interesting. I actually haven’t tried an airbrush system yet, but I did receive one a while back. I ended up giving it away, like I do with a lot of products because there’s too much for one person. I will have to give Luminess a go! xx adaatude.com
The device looks so freaking cute! I would love to try this sometime, foundation is something I really want looking flawless.
Airbrushed skin has always intrigued me and I’ve always wanted to try a system like this. Thanks for sharing the “skinny”!!!
