“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.

I did the "try before you buy" and as soon as it arrived I was so anxious to try it that I put it on immediately. Unfortunately, the first thing I noticed was the smell, AWFUL! Then after reading the directions, I proceeded to spray the primer on the brush as directed. It just felt wet. Then I tried the actual product...It is TERRIBLE! Do Not Waste Your Money on this overpriced, underwhelming, & cheaply made "makeup".

Still waiting from the chat.

Easy to use & smooth coverage. You have to shake the can like spray paint. Make sure to spray on brush before applying.

I ordered additional products, or items, in addition to the try before you buy spray foundation kit. You withheld the entire amount of the try before you buy + the 2 other items AND you debited the 2 items AGAIN, by themselves. It took one of your reps canceling the order and then I got it in the mail anyway. What's the point of that? I can see withholding he entire amount but not the entire amount plus double charging me for the additional 2 items I purchased. Luckily I had the money to cover it but I'm positive it would have put some people in a very bad financial position. Now I have the had the try before you buy products for the 14 days and am waiting for you to double charge me again for the other 2 items. Time will tell. Too much of a hassle!

I called twice and neither person could figure it out out even with supervisor support.

My color wasn't an exact match, I did come out a bit orange. Application was easy. Made me look a little bit smooth. I would've loved if it was more full coverage.

Good product. Color match was an issue. Felt heavy on my face. Have it to my teenage daughter and she loves it. The color was perfect for her and she looked beautiful especially in the sunlight.

I explained that the product felt heavy on my face and that the color was too dark on me. They were very courteous and explained that I was still under my trial period so I would only be charged for the shipping.

Reason I chose this business:

Was interested years ago but the price was too high to try.

We are well aware that when ordering cosmetics online, you can never be 100% sure until you try it on if it's for you, big part of why we offer it on a Try Before You Buy basis in the first place! But to take that a step further, we also include a 100% Color Match Guarantee to make sure you can try something else out without having to do a whole return and reorder process!😉

Sitejabber for Business

Gain trust and grow your business with customer reviews.

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.
