“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 used both the primer and foundation and it's by far the best I've ever used. It doesn't even feel like you're wearing make-up :)

Reason I chose this business:

I saw an ad from a game I played.

Unfortunately not for my combination skin. I felt my skin was too dry after applying it. Made me look a little older in my opinion.

I was very excited to try this product, but ended up very disappointed with it. It didn't provide full coverage even with 3 layers and it showed every fine line, and imperfection. I would like a refund please.

When I finally received it - it went on smoothly and flawlessly. Thought the color would be too dark but it was the perfect match.

I didn’t receive my package and wanted an update. They were able to tell me it was being held up at the post office.

I expected more from this set. After I applied the primer and the coverage, chunks started to fall off on my face. I didn't like the under-eye coverage either. Too thick and light.

I am so disappointed. I have tried to use the spray foundation, but it looks gummy on my face and my face looks orange. I wish it would have worked.

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!😉

I don't like the fact that on a free trial you put a hold on my account for the total and it deducts it from my account

I ask tem why I had a charge on my account for a free trial. It deducted that amount from my balance and then it's added back in and then shows as a debit again. I canceled my free trial

I have tried for years to find a liquid foundation I could use without it being cakey and sinking into my pores and looking awful. This was my last attempt and it is outstanding. Easy to apply. Looks fantastic. The primer is amazing as well.

Very quick to respond. I love that they have 24/7 chat service.

I have to say that this product is awesome I love it. My skin started to show signs of aging, I do try my best to keep my face away from wrinkles but age is a process you cannot stop. This foundation is perfect for me. Even though I think I must get a lighter shade, I look a little bit too tan...lol... I just love how my face looks in real life. In pictures there are always filters that smooth your face, well you don't need that with this foundation.

I tried the airbrush system and was amazed at the results! It was easy to apply too. The primer and sealer enhance an already excellent product. I do recommend it. Getting the right color match can be challenging though. The virtual platform was not functional the first time I ordered and I find the swatches difficult to see.

The products are good. Unfortunately, customer service is lacking. I had to get different shades of foundation after getting my airbrush system. I was not expecting a spray. The colors were good but I didn’t have the brush. I recently made an order that included the brush, along with the new all over face and body foundation. Not aware initially aware that I had dropped the buffing brush when opening my second package, I called for a replacement. I called the next day and cancelled it. Two days later I got a duplicate of the other brush - not the buffing brush!

Reason I chose this business:

I saw it advertised on television and social media several times.

I literally just received my package. It had been misdelivered to my neighbors home. I'm grateful they were honest!

Reason I chose this business:

A TV ad years ago. I didn't wear makeup then but now I want to find one that doesn't irritate my skin like the others have.

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.

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.
