“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.

The nozzle kept getting clogged up and I had to keep cleaning it and then adding more foundation. I would have used the whole bottle in a week at this rate. I'm sending the whole kit back to you.
Thank you,
Judy Guirovich

It was ok. I’m about to send the kit back to you.

I did not like the texture of the foundation and it is too yellow on my skin. Also, the coverage was not satisfied.

In place my order weeks ago. It has never shipped. I called to ask for a refund and was told I can't have a refund or have my subscription canceled until it ships. This is so frustrating because I want to cancel because it never shipped. This is a scam. I don't believe there is an actual product they plan on selling. P

Told I couldn’t have a refund until product they never ships actually ships. There was no resolution.

I tried the sample kit. Light/medium. I love the weightlessness of the product and the coverage, but the color is just a little too yellow for me.

Reason I chose this business:

Facebook I think.

Do not put me on a subscription. The primer and foundation don't really last long on oily skin.

Even with the med to full coverage, you need 4 applications to cover a breakout. And if you are still applying lightly to attempt a more airbrush look, it's not an airbrushed look. The sealant doesn't stabilize it and just makes you look dry. It's so hard to find a spray airbrush anymore and sadly the ones I've tried previously were a lot more cost efficient and looked better but those companies keep dropping.

The match is perfect. It's very light and goes on smooth. The primer smells a little funny and it broke me out the first time I used it. But other than that it's a great product.

I expected the make up to be more full coverage. I have a hard time finding a good color for me. I haven't made my decision yet if I'm going to keep it or return it.

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.
