“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.

I TRIED THE LUMINESS SPRAY FOUNDATION AND IT IS LIFE CHANGING GOOD! I AM EXTREMELY SATISFIED! IT IS VERY LIGHT, NOT HEAVY FEELING. IT JUST FEELS SO GOOD ON MY SKIN. I'M NOT A BIG FAN OF MAKEUP, BUT THIS STUFF ROCKS! YOU SHOULD DEFINITELY TRY THIS PRODUCT. I KNOW YOU WILL LOVE IT!

The airbrush look was not what I got. Although it Sent in smooth I found it to be sticky and left my face very oily by the end of the day. Fine lines and imperfections seemed more apparent.

Reason I chose this business:

I have been wanting to try it since it first came out a couple of decades ago and finally decided to take the plunge.

Hey Sylvia! Thanks for leaving your review with us! First time users tend to apply the makeup too close to the face or use a lot of it which can make the makeup feel wet. We have been recently trying to contact you over the past couple of weeks but was unable to reach you. Please contact us back a good time to give you a call so we can resolve this! ❤️

Bought as a gift for my adult daughter who is trying it now.

Had to call because order had not been processed, however I did receive it on Christmas Eve in time for Christmas.

Order was promptly processed.

Reason I chose this business:

Saw product and videos and thought this would be worth trying.

It is for sure something that you have to learn to do it's not a natural thing to hold down a button and swirl it around your face I noticed that I was getting more color in certain areas on my face versus others and when I look in the mirror I'm Orange so I don't think the color match is working for me but I'm very excited to be using it and seeing what it can do for my skin

Reason I chose this business:

I liked what I saw in the commercials so I guess I was sucked into it

It's always hard to choose a color over a computer and I am not loving the color I ended up with. I also didn't want the silky finish but struggled to figure out to change it to matte.

Just received the email so I'm still working out my new shade.

Thought it would have more coverage and the spray on the brush goes on my fingers.

Thumbnail of user delightt2
Delight T. – Luminess Rep

Hi Kari!The best thing about our Spray foundation is that you can build the coverage to your liking. Whether you want a natural finish, or a full coverage finish - our foundation does it all. We do our best to make our products as efficient as possible! Keep in mind, the Spray Silk Foundation has the foundation come out in a micro-droplet mist! So if there is a little over spray, not much is being lost! 😉 Even so, with practice and proper technique, you can most certainly have all the spray land on the brush!💖

I look natural but with fewer flaws I like that. I don't like cakey feeling and this is light coverage or more if you want it. Color matched perfectly

Reason I chose this business:

Looked easy and liked the trial option. I will be keeping it.

I was so excited to try this but its not for me - makeup is orange on me and doesnt feel right. Sent it back. My advice, if you have aging skin it doesnt look good.

I ordered the breeze system because I had the other one. The stylus finally died and I ordered a new one. I loved it. It worked for less than a month and then quit working. There was a red light that keeps coming on and it won't reset. I contacted the company who told me that my warranty was out. Yeah right... when I proved it wasn't out, they told me there was a hold on the money and I had to call te bank to fix. Ok... no hold on the first payment of 71.49. It came out 3 days after they submitted it on the 9th. I have been fighting with them who refuse to replace a machine I bought. They told me they wouldn't charge me anything more. Not the point I wanted the machine to replace the one I had. Their customer service sucks. DO NOT BUY THIS AS THEY REFUSE TO FIX/REPLACE 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.
