“Great Product!”

Jessica H.

Timely delivery. This air brush foundation is exactly what was described. It hides imperfections, even on my 48 year old face. I added a second layer after the first one dried for the perfect coverage.

“Not my shade”

Amanda F.
9/11/24

The overall experience of luminess perfect shade, is nice. I am a black girl with golden undertones and this formula does not work completely for my skin tone. I have tried a variation of colors to match. The pros: lightweight formula, easy to blend. Cons: color choices are limited.

TERRIFIC! Glad I made the decision to try it. I usually will not purchase products that I can't buy in person do to the product is usually not what it is hyped to be. Well let me tell you LUMINESS is all that is advertised to be for sure. I use to wear Clinique and LUMINESS blows Clinique away.

I just got it yesterday in the mail and I used it today for a birthday get together for my dad and I absolutely love it! It's like I don't have any on and that's great bc I do not wear makeup at all!

Reason I chose this business:

Saw the commercial and thought it could help on some of my red spots I have on my face and it did!

It is real easy to find everything I want, shipment was well packed so products wouldn't get damaged,love the fact that they have chat rooms if you need a color match they would explain on how to apply, I use the spray brush it is very easy to use, I feel like I'm not wearing any makeup and the price is asome reasonable well worth more than what it is, I will never use anything else.

Reason I chose this business:

On Facebook,this is my second order I joined around the end of August

I am not happy with my purchase. I have tried 2 different products and neither do what is advertised. My skin actually look's cracked and has more lines and just looks bad.

I have been trying to get ahold of someone for over a week. I want to cancel any subscription or payments or anything. I have tried this product twice and it does not work. My face looks more wrinkled and dried out.

Very easy and simple to order, it took more time to deliver but it's here and I'm using it, I like it very much, but the make up is very watery and takes more than 6 - 8 drop to cover marks.

Had received the wrong shades with my applicator and they resolved the problem within minutes extended my warranty and will be sending new shades out immediately Anxious to try

Reason I chose this business:

Mature skin and hope to get good coverage without worrying about caking in certain places and to make application easier

I am not a user of makeup everyday. I can not justify the monthly fee for a make up routine that I may only use once or twice a month. Do not see much of a difference from my current application.

It wasn't until I ordered these items that I realized I was going to be charged every other month@ $50. For auto ordering. I will most likely cancel this. It is a scam.

OMGosh BEWARE BEWARE BEWARE I went on the site for Luminess Cosmetics and looked around but never finished any orders. Yesterday I received a package of their products and was charged $19.95 Which isn't the crazy part. I read the fine lines in the ad and it said they would charge $29.95 for 4 months after that. CRAZY so I'm now on the phone with them and they are saying they want me to get a police report regarding the fact that I never ordered this. WHAT THE HOOKIE POOKIE

Tip for consumers:

My order has been lost since May 5,2023. When I called on the 10th about it I was told I had to wait an additional 5 days
I have called both DHL A
And USPS and no one knows where the shipment is. At this point I just want everything canceled and money refunded

Told to continue to wait an additional 5 days and then they could resend my order. I just want it canceled at the rate.

Reason I chose this business:

Never received product

Easy and quick. It should say the fine print if there will be more costs BEFORE checkout. A little sketchy for that information to only be at checkout and in fine print.

Hi Jeri! The auto delivery is completely optional to be enrolled in and can be opted in or out of upon purchasing. Being on the auto delivery provides SO many benefits such as a 90 day supply of makeup being sent to you at a discounted price, insurance for the system, and discounts on makeup when you order on our website! We can always change the shades or frequency on your auto delivery as we want you to have the BEST deal out there - let us know if you have any questions, we are here to help! (:

Sitejabber for Business

Gain trust and grow your business with customer reviews.

From the business

Our mission began over 25 years ago to provide beauty solutions to the everyday woman without compromising on quality. LUMINESS was created as a professional Airbrush Cosmetics line that was designed to be easy-to-use for the at home consumer to deliver a finish not achievable with traditional liquid or powder foundations. With over 5 million Airbrush Makeup Kits sold, LUMINESS is the #1 Global Leader in Airbrush Systems and Air Delivered Beauty. Our award winning BREEZE Airbrush System is the first all-in-one device that delivers makeup, haircare, skincare and tanning. With BREEZE, LUMINESS has revolutionized the concept of Air Delivered Beauty as all-in-one beauty tool combining the easiest application of makeup for a flawless skin finish. With its interchangeable stylus attachments BREEZE delivers the added benefit of covering up gray roots and filling in the hairline with its Hair Stylus head attachment and delivering water-based skincare formulas directly onto the skin with its Skincare Stylus Head. With a micro-needling and tanning stylus head available, the possibilities are truly endless with the NEW LUMINESS BREEZE.

LUMINESS and its range of Airbrush Cosmetics, Airbrush Skincare, Airbrush Haircare, and Airbrush Tanning formulas are all made in the USA, are cruelty-free and are never tested on animals. We are continuously researching and redeveloping formulas and our latest SILK 4-in-1 Airbrush Foundation is completely CLEAN. Our Airbrush Skincare formulas including Vitamin C 15%, Niacinamide 10%, Retinol 1%, Hyaluronic Acid 2%, AHA 11%, and Vitamin B-5 are clean, cruelty free, vegan formulas that featured clinically proven and concentrated ingredients.

Business History

Nearly 25 years ago, innovator, artist, and entrepreneur Sean Mehta had a thriving fashion and garment business as one of the largest importers of beaded gowns in the United States. During photoshoots for each fashion collection, he noticed something.

The makeup artist ALWAYS used an airbrush machine on the fashion models. He would ask each makeup artist, why are you using airbrush, and the response was always the same – It’s the best way to give you the flawless look and the only one that can last the whole photoshoot. So he thought to himself – if airbrushing is the best way to give women flawless, long-lasting and beautiful coverage – WHY doesn’t every woman in the country have one?

The answer was clear – traditional airbrushing was messy, loud, large, and relatively expensive – basically, it wasn’t friendly for the everyday woman and the majority of beauty companies were focused on traditional cosmetics. Determined, Sean worked on prototype after prototype – making an airbrush system that was smaller, more portable, easier to use, more precise until finally – LUMINESS was born. Rooted in the desire to create something innovative, LUMINESS filled a need for professional quality results in an easy-to-use at-home solution.

Now that he had a product, he needed to determine how to get it into the hands of every woman in the US. After considering many different channels, he decided right in the beginning that in order to become successful he needed to maintain a close connection to the women using the product. After all, it was this close connection to the makeup artist that allowed him to see how breakthrough a device like this could be if it was to be made available for in-home use.
