“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.

Don't like the way it collects in the wrinkles, makes them show up more, will not buy again.

I had never used a spray makeup before and Iam 72yrs old. I open the can and sprayed my face. I never laughed so hard as the makeup was in my hair and ears,etc. I told my 16yr granddaughter and she said "grammy you are suppose to spray it on the brush". She also had a good laugh.

I'm loving the opportunity to try this product without having to hurt my budget! I've been hesitant because of the possibility it's not a good product for me and didn't want to waste the money. How can you say no a 14 day trial! So glad I decided to give it a go. Definitely going to go all in! Love this foundation!

I have HUGE PORES AND SUPER OILY SKIN. I was hopeful bc this product says it's sweat proof. Ummmm…. NOooo

I received on a Saturday and have used it 2 times giving it a chance. Not only does it not cover, but it makes me look like an orange impala limps. All my pores come through and it makes me even more oily in less than 3 hours plus it smears off. I will be asking for my money back and returning this product. For a company that says they've been around for 20plus years they need to not claim to be sweat proof for all types skin. That's false advertisement.

I am being expect to pay to return a product that doesn’t work. SMDH!

Great products, but using the points is difficult. Twice I've ordered and not been able to use them. I've never had an issue at other sites. And yes I am computer savvy.
But the order tracking to see if I received my order was super!

Good, and they reversed my purchase, but I had the same issue with the reorder.

Reason I chose this business:

Been using for a while and don’t remember how I came across it.

I purchased the14 day trial foundation, primer, and brush set. The shipping was fast! The quality of the products was well worth it! The foundation fits to your face color perfectly. Once you do the color match it's amazing how much it looks so natural. I have freckles, fine lines, wrinkles, under eye bags and it never once got all creased looking. It didn't even feel like I had any makeup on at all! The primer is light and smooth smells great and has a cooling feeling when applying. I would totally recommend trying these products you have nothing to lose with the 14 day trial you pay shipping only an can return it no problem but I'm pretty confident you're going to love these products as much as I do!

Reason I chose this business:

I saw a video on Facebook showing older woman using this foundation

The coverage is pretty instantaneous and definitely buildable. The color match was off a shade or two, but I still used it a few days to see if it would last all day which it did not. I tried it with and without the primer and with and without the setting powder, and no matter what it was clumpy and cakey by the end of the day. Not impressed at all

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.
