“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.

Airbrush is great but the promise of delivery for the foundation is a total ripoff!
They continue to take my money from my bank account every 2 months when I have NOT recieved any foundation since November 2020. They owe me 3 refunds and I only recieved one. Each time I call customer service, they tell me I will get my refund in 3-5 business days. Its a total lie! I've called them 3 times in a period of 3 weeks and I still have not gotten it.
I called again today and asked to speak with a supervisor and the agent I was talking to said he was a supervisor and he wasnt. They lie to you to get your money and they dont send the products that you pay for. Be careful with Luminess. There are lots of other excellent companies out there that
Will send the foundation to you, hassle free and on time. Luminess is a scam and I DO NOT recommend them. The airbrush system is great but the continued foundation will stop while they continue to take your money on a regular basis. They claim to have a good refund policy, which is extremely FALSE, andvthe customer service is terrible and they lie. Ive cancelled everything with them and Im watching my bank account to see if they continue to rob me. What a joke!
I recommend ANYBODY else for your liquid foundation, definately not Luminess

Tip for consumers:
Luminess has a bad refund policy, they lie and take your money without recieving the products

I finf it difficult to spray on the brush. I miss more than I hit it. The coverage is very light. I feel I have to use alot of it to get the coverage I need.

Have not received a response yet but I just sent it.

This is the third time I've ordered from Luminess as I like how the make up works for me. But as far as the sprayer goes I think I like the air brush alot better.

Reason I chose this business:

I like how it covers my imperfections without having a ton of make up on

Fast delivery. Received all that was promoted. Thought there would be more for skin care but everything must be bought separately.

Site is easy to use and reason for 1 star. This make up is horrible. It flakes and caused dry patches so bad on my skin.

A lot of hype for sub-par product. Covers fine and looks nice but feel it doesn't last but an hour-two at most before it's wiping off.

It did not absorb or apply well to my skin. Casey. Also the concealer looked dry and emphasized my wrinkles brushes were ok, nothing special.

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.
