“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 had the first model with the stylus that a absolutely loved, but I found it difficult to use everyday and it was a little inconvenient for traveling.
I purchased the hand held model and it's perfect. I use it for skincare and my makeup routines daily. I can pack it in make bag and bring it with me everywhere.

It was supposed to be a Christmas present for my older sister. I had it shipped to my younger sister (where we were to gather) because I didn't think it would arrive in time for me to take it with me for the holiday visit. I hoped the three of us could unwrap it and experiment together. Unfortunately, it didn't arrive at my younger sister's house until after we left. My younger sister will hold on to it and we will try again in June when we see each other again.

I took the test and a particular tone was suggested and I did not believe that would match so I order another tone in addition to the one suggested. When I received them both the suggested by Luminess was perfect! I'm sold.

Would have preferred if describe the total amount and mounts per month to pay prior to getting to the end
Yes I would have preferred to know the monthly amounts and how many months and the total cost. I think there a individual that think they are getting it for the introductory price but don't realize the actual cost. It worth every penny.

Due to an error on my part 2 were ordered. I spoke to customer service which were happy to help me and email me a return slip with no postage necessary. I found that to be very thoughtful since I made the mistakes.

Reason I chose this business:

I purchase a model five years ago the stylist need to be replaced. The I saw the new cordless Breeze. I decided to try it since the older one worked so wonderful until the stylist die.

This product is so much more amazing than I could have ever imagined. I have tried several other "top of the line" foundations and the second I put this product on the others went right into the trash!

Reason I chose this business:

I saw the ad on Facebook and it seemed different so I thought why not

Can't tell you about the product experience because I haven't received the order. So that being said then I am not happy that i am getting these emails to provide a review and haven't even received the product. How about you tell me when I am going to receive it instead?

After I retired, I didn't use make-up like I routinely do daily. It was not my top priorty. I was satisfied with a bareface look. However, when I tried the Luminess trial package, I looked a little bit better & younger. It made putting make-up easier and spend less time compared to my previous make up routine.

Reason I chose this business:

Sorry, but I received just three of the five items that the packing list says were sent. (There were also two other items on back order.) I left a message yesterday for a callback. I did not open any of the items that I received because I am leaving town in a few days and so I want to return them and cancel the rest of the order before I go.

I do like this product, but I am still getting used to using something different. I like that it's light and not heavy on my face. I do think my shade is a tad to light, but I can definitely still work with this shade.

I love my luminous but, I was hoping to trade it for something else because it only last for a few seconds. No return label possible. No call back.

Never answered and never called back

Don't wish to order anymore and I don't wish to have the trial any longer. The sprayer stopped working on the primer the second time I used it. I'm not impressed with the coverage nor how it blends into my skin. Thank you

I received my first shipment only to discover that the starter package did not include the moisturizing foundation that was to be applied prior to applying the make up. I had to order that item separately. There was also no instruction booklet or DVD in my package showing how to use the product. I am still waiting for the missing items. When you advertise the product on television there was no indication that there was a necessity for the moisturizing item. At this point, I am still not able to complete my trial to determine if I would like the product or not. I probably will not continue use of the product unless I can actually try it out and see results.

Save your money. Tiny make up bottles that cost $70 to refill. Do not do it. Do not upgrade. Do not waste your time. You may get refunded if you return with in the 30 days since they mail it out but dont trust that either. It will cost you an additional $12 just to mail it back as that is not covered. It will cost you $300 if you decide to keep the system. I tried it, and to be honest with you, I prefer IL Makiage high quality far better product you can count on and totally flawless for far less money.
Don't take my word for it, try it for yourself. They match your skin tone for you too.

Tip for consumers:
The actual size containers of the makeup and the total price after the 30 days along with the price of refills.

I received the Luminess product I ordered, but was disappointed there was no written instruction manual and my phone was not cooperating to allow me to access the video tutorials the code I was supposed to scan. I tried to find videos on YouTube but none of them showed the basics of how to use my product. So, it was trial and error and I quickly learned it is challenging to use the lever that adjusts how much product is dispensed.

Reason I chose this business:

I wanted to try applying airbrush makeup

I liked the thought behind the product but more shades would be great. I found the medium had an orange tint and didn't look right.

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.
