“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.

I don't need to use a lot of make up, to look good. It looks very natural

I purchased Luminess product in October 2021. My first payment was $62.43 US and then I had 3 more installments of $59.99 US. I was billed $80.84 US. When I enquired as yo the over billing, they replied with, well you are billed 3 installments of $69.99 US please see attached breakdown. It clearly shows $80.84 US. I then sent them a copy of my original invoice showing it states $59.99 US per month. They then sent me a revised invoice on April 15,2022, identical to my original invoice, but had clearly changed the 3 monthly installments to $69.99 US. I believe changing an invoice 5 months after the deal was made is highly illegal, not to mention unethical.

Then I also questioned why I had been billed in January and February for my auto refills that are only to come in Decmber 2021, March 2022 and June 2022. I was billed for my December auto ship and my March one when I actually received product, why was I billed in January and February for no product ordered or received? So far, no answers and no refund back to my credit card. I have asked for my auto delivery to be canceled but I guarantee it won't be and I'll be billed in April and May for no auto delivery ordered and then again in June 2021 when my next one should actually arrive.

It is clear on their summary that they have overbilled on thec3 monthly payments and for two auto deliveries that were not ordered, expected or delivered. They are shisters. Do not order from them, do not give your credit card info to them and believe the awful reviews they've gotten, they are true. I have all paperwork and back up documents to prove everything. What an unethical, immoral, dishonest company. They should not be in business, they should be shut down.

Tip for consumers:
Don't order from this company. Unethical and illegal business practices. Over bill and change the payment amounts, redo invoices after you've already entered into the contract (totally illegal) and bill for product not ordered nor received.

Products used:
Air brush and liquid makeup

Can't wait to try! My hands don't work well, upgrated to Breeze hoping to maneuver easier as well as performing spray tans!

I already receive auto ship with icon, I needed to cancel breeze autoships because I do not need double foundations.

Reason I chose this business:

I have used the icon for years, excited to try Breeze!

Thanks for leaving your feedback with us! Some products can be upgraded - such as the trial systems - that may fit more towards your needs depending on your makeup routine and preference - and would hate for these to go unnoticed! However, these additions are totally optional and can be looked at on our website anytime if you decide it may be for you! ❤️

As I will be out of the country for at least 9 months it makes no sense for my particular case.n

I had to send my order back as I shall be traveling extensively and be out of the US for 9 months, so it does not make sense for me to become a member. Too complicated. I have send my package back yesterday.

The product works as advertised. It is light and doesn't cake up on my face. I'm glad I found it!

I called in today with a question about my order and my rep was very friendly and helpful. She shipped the new shade I sought and verified my information.

Reason I chose this business:

Pretty sure it was Facebook.

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.
