“Great Product!”

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.

I do not have a use for it it is to much more steps then I wanted and to bulky to pack and travel for me, but better than the older one I tried in 2012

Reason I chose this business:

I chose it for the light make up technique

The shade of the fountain was quite off. The airbrush machine sprayed patches on my face. It was the smooth and silky application like on the video. I will be returned this.

No issues just not outstanding.

Love this product, but I wish the individual components were replaceable. I only use the eye shadow, not the lipstick. Would be nice to not have to order the entire compact each time.

It was easy to order using the online service. However, I didn't need the hair dyes and thought I selected No. I haven't tried Luminess yet and hope I purchased the correct shade.

Reason I chose this business:

I have hyperpigmentation and am tired of trying to find the perfect concealer.

Difficult to use and get the right look/coverage and uses more product in the tank than I want to invest. I thought it would be a lot more user friendly and it's not.

It took me a little while to get use to the application!
But when I did I was very satisfied with the outcome!
It is easy and fast and not messy! The color I was sent matched perfectly!

Reason I chose this business:

I had tried it before and couldn’t get it just right!
But I have a friend that. Uses it and she gave me a few tips to get it right! This time I am very satisfied
With the makeup!

Couple of my things were back ordered so I didn't receive the full order. With the cold temperatures I hope it didn't freeze the makeup and it will work fine.

I am somewhat disappointed in my air brushed makeup. I know how to use it but I don't Get the coverage I thought I would. Maybe it's because of my age. But I'm not sorry I tried it.

I got my airbrush machine in the mail and I was so excited to open it up and try it out after charging it for 4 hours 4 1/2 hours I tried to use it and Eric came out of it but when I pulled the trigger no Foundation came out so I'm thinking well great so I kept trying used a half a bottle of foundation trying to get this thing to work and it still never worked so hopefully they'll do something about it

I have no comment about customer service

Reason I chose this business:

I'm 50 years old and I thought maybe airbrush Foundation would work better for my skin

Why were items on back order. I tried the airbrush for the first time today not sure if I I will keep it. The colors seem to give off a "chalky glow" I will give it a few more tries.

Ordered the Luminess Breeze system for what I thought was an introductory price. What they don't tell you is you'll be billed that introductory price every month for 4 months! I was billed $74.00 a month for 4 months. The Liminess Breeze system actually costs $280 plus the auto-shipments of makeup are also billed in monthly installments of $54 each. When I inquired why I was being billed every month when I'd only received one shipment I was advises the monthly $54 fee was the cost per bottle! In other words you're paying $54 a month for foundation.

As for the makeup itself, yes it covers but the people on the commercials have tiny flaws they are trying to conceal. Real people have to use much more than the 3 - 5 drops advertised to actually get an even skin tone. True, the makeup looks pretty good and I guess worth the money if you can afford to spend $55 a month on foundation? The top brand powder foundations cover just as nice and look just as natural, is much less expensive and lasts a very long time.

When you try to cancel the auto-shipments they will offer to charge only $20 per bottle of foundation plus tell you about their app where you can download coupons for discounts. Nice they wait until you want to cancel before they tell you about the app and discounts. Just beware of the true costs of the system and foundation before you commit to purchasing this system.

Ordering process is easy. Very concerning that this is only available via a highly over-fee processing system. I've experienced an excellent ordering process.

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.
