“Great Product!”

Jessica H.
10/1/24

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.

Took awhile to receive the product. Website was easy to navigate. I picked the wrong shade, it's to light, I look like a ghost. I will be returning it. Only thing I really liked was the brush.

Reason I chose this business:

Always wanted to try the airbrush foundation

This stuff is awful. Felt terrible on my skin. I will not be continuing and I cannot recommend. The shades do not match my skin tone and it really felt like it was paint and dryer hard

The process was seamless when purchasing. I just received it and I will update my review after using it for a while and see how I like it... so far so good!

Reason I chose this business:

I like the option of airbrush and even more that it offered the hair attachment to use in between coloring my hair... can't wait to try it.

Even though I was sent the wrong color with the kit, I tried using it just to see how it worked. Decided to just stick with what I know. There was no pressure to try again with correct color.

I didn’t really care for product. ( sent wrong color)

I just received the order I have watched a few tutorials online. I don't have a cd player. I haven't opened it up or played with it yet. Shooing for it & packaging I would say rates a 5.

Love the way it looks but it's a bit light. I did try the blush as well but the color just wasn't right for me. How do I change this?

She was incredibly helpful and it was obvious she knew what she was talking about. She helped me find a different product based on my skin type and desired coverage.

It was easy to order. Thank you. I am still trying to figure out how to cover my brown spots on my face.
I will eventually have laser treatments to reduce the brown spots.

I was unable to use it since it caused irritation to my skin. My skin became red and
Started to burn - I removed the makeup immediately so as not to cause any further problem.

Luminous made it very easy to place the order, however, the shipping was very slow. Once I called the company to check on it, they assured me it would arrive shortly. And it did.

Agent was very friendly and helpful.

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.
