How to Apply Airbrush Makeup for Everyday Wear

It's simple and easy to learn how to apply airbrush makeup for your everyday makeup look. Airbrush makeup gives a long wearing, natural looking finish. The foundation formulations can be in matte or dewy depending on your personal preference.
You can choose silicone based foundation which will give superior coverage and hold up for a very long time under hot studio lights but can have a plastic like look on the face.
Airbrush makeup foundation also comes in a water base with a mineral pigment mixed. Both of these choices need to be shaken very well before use to help get a smooth and even application.
There are 3 simple steps to doing great airbrush makeup at home:
1. Start with a clean and moisturized face
2. Load the stylus with a few drops of foundation. Start the system, and hold the stylus about 8 inches away from your face, now gently pull half way back on the lever to start the air flow into the stylus cup that is holding your foundation.
3. Now move the stylus in large circles across your face-or the area that needs foundation, or bronzer, or blush and eyeshadow! The true secret to great airbrush makeup is to keep the stylus moving at all times, in circles-whether big or small of doing detail on the face like hiding a pimple or concealing an age spot.
There are 3 main companies that provide air brush makeup systems: Luminess Air, Kett Cosmetics and Temptu. Each of these companies offer a pro makeup artist machine as well as an at home system for the everyday lady who wants superior makeup application at home.

I like the Luminess Air brush makeup system because of it's affordability, ease of use and easy to clean plus it comes with great customer support. In my experience the Kett Cosmetics brand is perfect for special fx makeup and doing a lot of body makeup. The Temptu brand has several choices but I had challenge with the customer service.
If you are getting married, doing your own airbrush makeup for the wedding will ensure you get an amazing look in the wedding photos while having a look that lasts through the ceremony and reception.
Remember to clean your airbrush makeup system thoroughly after every use to ensure a smooth application every time.
