“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.

The foundation itself seem to definitely soak nicely into the skin. I just received the wrong color. It was way too orange for me. I got the light medium color. I thought that it would match well since I use self tanning but maybe myself tanning just isn't an orange color.

I haven’t heard back yet

Wish it wasn't so heavy feeling. The brush is amazing feeling haven't used the eraser yet. Primer feels weird putting it on wish it was lighter.

I was looking forward to a medium to full coverage foundation. I was not impressed with the coverage that it gave me. However, I think it is a great product, just not what I was looking for.

The color that the color test matched me with was way off. I look orange when wearing it. If it matched I would have liked it better because it does help cover fine lines. Im actually looking into sending it back before my trial period is up

The foundation bottle sprayer leaks. So after I spray it continues to run out the top all the time. Wastes what I paid for.

I never really received an answer.

Honestly I hate trying to shade pick without being able to swatch…but amazing first try was the winner! It's my exact shade…Im a super sweaty person and very oily…and have a pretty decent skin care regime that I follow so I worry that I'm either a. Going to sweat it off in an hour b. It's going to get patchy bc I'm so oily/sweaty or c. My skincare products won't jive with the foundation formula…but I can honestly say this was a def win! It's nicely buildable…I like a solid medium coverage…I just want it to take the redness away from my rosacea and even out my complexion without cracking or caking or feeling heavy or greasy….it feels nice once it dries down.:it does take a little to dry down…I haven't used without some sort of primer (their primer is good too!) and I also use their setting spray along with a sunscreen setting spray as well…but I found It dries down much quicker with the sunscreen setting spray…the brush is nice! I've actually always planned to buy this sort of brush but never remember when I'm buying new brushes…but! I've fallen asleep in this makeup and woken up and still looked amazing! I've only been using this now for like 10 days but so far…I must say.I will for sure be a repeat customer! Love this stuff!

I am Latina and I haven't been able to completely match my color. First color was a little darker and my new color is a little light. I've been experimenting with the 2 shades. The finish and feel is great I have been getting many compliments. I really do love it. I just need to find the proper color. Shipping is super fast!

Customer service is fantastic! I was helped with trying to find my shade! It didn’t match but the person did their best.

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.
