How to Airbrush Makeup with Luminess Air June 20, 2016
I love playing with makeup, but I’ve only had airbrush makeup done once for my wedding. When I got the chance to try out this Luminess Air I was so excited! I’ve been playing around with it for the past week or so and have to admit I’m an airbrush convert. The Luminess gives my skin a healthy glow without looking caked on, and it stays on for 10 hours+!
How to Airbrush Makeup with Luminess Air
This is the kit I received. It contained a teal Luminess Air and a sample kit of medium shade foundations, moisturizer, highlighter, bronzer, and blush. The colors matched my skin tone perfectly, and I learned how to contour using the blush, bronzer and highlighter. It’s so fun to play with!
The airbrush machine comes already assembled and it even has a step by step tutorial handbook to show you how to properly apply the airbrush makeup with contour instructions. I highly recommend playing with it a couple times before using it for an event or going out. The first time I practiced I looked like a clown- I didn’t read the instructions and just went HAM on my face. But after a couple practice tries I have it pretty down pat.
Here are my recommendations for using the airbrush makeup Luminess Air:
- Practice makes perfect! When you have a spare moment- practice applying!
- Less is more. You can always add more makeup, but I’ve noticed that it looks best by applying in light layers. The gun has a nozzle that allows you to control how much makeup comes out. The first layer I only pull the nozzle back about 1/4 of the way, the second layer I do 1/4 to 1/2 of the way.
- Apply in small circles. They tell you to do this in the tutorial and it definitely makes a difference! Especially when contouring.
- Have fun with it! I’m ordering an eye kit next as I can’t wait to see how fantastic the different contouring options are for eye shadow.

This is really neat! I’ve been hearing a lot more about airbrush makeup lately but haven’t tried it yet.
I have the same one! It works pretty well.
How cool! I’m not sure I’d be handy enough for airbrushing at home!
I’ve always wanted to try airbrush makeup… ever since I heard Emily Maynard and Michelle Money from the Bachelor use it haha! This looks like a great kit!
Oh so cool! Your makeup looks ever so flawless 🙂

You look stunning! You have amazing postpartum skin… I need to try this makeup, the heat and the hormones are making me melt!
I have never had airbrushed makeup, it sounds like the type of things I’d love someone else to do but I would probably mess up, lol. Although I’m sure, like you said, it just takes practice.
I have always wanted to try this! I honestly suck at all things make-up so this would be so helpful! Your skin looks gorgeous! XO
