Professional Results, At Home!

Well, it’s official-we are getting closer to normalcy which means we can finally celebrate special occasions with our loved ones. Although special events like weddings or graduations are super exciting, they can also be very stressful. I know the second you receive your invite, you’re thinking about your outfit, hair and makeup- don’t lie! 

But what if it didn’t have to be stressful? What if we didn’t have to worry about researching the perfect makeup artist and booking an appointment? Imagine achieving the professional looking results you desire but at-home, done by you and your airbrush system…

LUMINESS provides the tools to help you achieve flawless results for ANY occasion, but here are the products that will make you feel confident in your application and stress-free for your special occasion, no professionals required!

AIRBRUSH SYSTEM

So, first things first, you’re going to NEED an airbrush system. I’m sure most of my fellow makeup lovers do, but if you don’t this is your sign to join the airbrush world. 

Airbrush Systems are the key to professional-looking results and it couldn’t be easier to use. Of course, it takes a little practice, but doesn’t every new makeup tool? After a few tries, you’ll be a pro-I PROMISE. 

Just be sure to follow these few simple rules:

-Keep the stylus/system four fingers away from your face

-Lightly pull back on the trigger

-Keep it moving in small circular motions

If you follow these easy tips, you’ll be showing off your makeup results in no-time! 

AIRBRUSH FOUNDATIONS

Now that you have the system, I’m sure you’re thinking…what do I put in it?? Well honey, we have many options for you. With an airbrush system you can apply most of your makeup, but we will get to that later. 

Let’s talk coverage, for a special event we want our skin to look flawless, we want to cover all wrinkles, blemishes-you name it! LUMINESS provides a variety of foundations that make it so easy to cover all imperfections and there’s a foundation for every skin type. 

My all-time favs are the amazing multi-purpose 4-In-1 Foundations. If you’re someone who likes medium to full coverage, I’d recommend Rose 4-In-1 Foundation and side note it smells like fresh roses (such a bonus!). If you like light to sheer coverage, your best bet is the Silk 4-In-1 Foundation. Both of these foundations act as your primer, concealer, foundation AND anti-aging serum, all in ONE! So, on the busy day of your special event, shorten your routine and achieve a flawless finish with these multi-purpose foundations!

AIRBRUSH COSMETICS

Now that you’ve found the perfect airbrush foundation and system, let’s complete your look with airbrush cosmetics. From airbrush eyeshadows to airbrush blush, you can achieve a flawless makeup look with airbrush cosmetics. 

Your airbrush system is so versatile it can even save you a trip to the hair salon! You can fill in your roots at home using airbrush root and brow, which can be used to add shape and color to your brows as well!

Forget about figuring out which brush is for what product, your airbrush system is all your brushes in one, making it so easy to achieve a special look for your important event. Listen guys, I’m the furthest thing from a makeup professional, I’m just a makeup lover and I rely on my airbrush system for every occasion, so when it comes to stressful special occasions, I’m very thankful for my system. So don’t make these special occasions harder than they already are, let your airbrush system do the work!

LASH LURE 

As I mentioned earlier, I’m NOT a makeup artist and I have to admit, I’m so bad at applying fake eyelashes on myself. The glue gets everywhere, the lashes are crooked, it’s honestly scary, but I love the way they look (if done correctly). Thankfully LUMINESS has answered my prayers with the Lash Lure Magnetic Lashes. 

All you need to do is line, define and effortlessly apply any of Lash Lure’s three styles of silk magnetic lashes. These lashes come in natural, diva and glam- the three distinct magnetic lash styles add volume and fullness to any look and the 2-in-1 Magnetic Smart Adhesive ensures an easy application and comfortable wear. The process is so easy all you need is the magnetic liner to attract the lashes for a glue-free AND worry-free hold! 

Lash lure makes special occasion glam easy for anyone, with LUMINESS you don’t need to be a makeup artist to achieve perfect results!

I hope I took some stress off your plate….. or should I rephrase that? I hope LUMINESS’ user-friendly amazing products help you feel beautiful and stress-free not only during special occasion season but always! I want you all to fully enjoy your celebrations this summer, spend less time stressing and more time impressing!

Don’t Sweat it: Keep Your Makeup Fresh All Day Long

It’s officially melting season and all my makeup lovers know EXACTLY what I’m talking about. 

You’ve achieved the perfect finish using your LUMINESS airbrush system and OBVIOUSLY want your beautiful results to last all day long…but then, life happens.

Whether it’s the heat, face masks, or rain, it can be hard to keep your makeup looking fresh all day long. 

But of course, I have a few tips to help you keep your makeup fresh for the ENTIRE day! With these tips you will start and end your day feeling fabulous!

PRIMER

First things first, you MUST prep your skin! After you finish your skincare routine, it’s important to apply primer because it creates a smooth and even canvas for your makeup by balancing your skin’s texture.

Not only does Primer help your makeup last longer, but primer also has benefits that can elevate your overall results!

To help your makeup stay perfect all day, apply Airbrush Porcelain Primer before you apply airbrush foundation- its water-based, colorless primer formulated for all skin types. It’s simple to apply and feels weightless on your skin, it truly is a makeup saver! 

For those of you who are concerned about covering fine lines and wrinkles, I’d recommend Velvet Veil Serum. Velvet Veil is a priming serum that reduces the appearance of fine lines and pores. You will see the results of this serum INSTANTLY. 

So moral of the story, prep and prime your skin to achieve flawless makeup results and help them last way longer!

SETTING SPRAY

This is the last but NOT least (important) step in your makeup routine. Once your flawless airbrush look is complete, be sure to use Final Seal Setting Spray to protect your makeup for up to 18 hours.

This spray sets your makeup instantly leaving it waterproof, sweat-proof, and tear-proof…. So pretty much life proof! 

Forget about your makeup melting, cracking, fading or worst of all transferring onto your mask, this spray is designed to keep your makeup picture perfect all day long. So please guys, protect your gorgeous airbrush results, and don’t skip your Final Seal Setting Spray!

SPF 30 SETTING POWDER

I’d like to introduce you all to a product that is near and dear to my heart (literally and figuratively), it’s always in my pocket or my purse because I can’t go a day without it…SPF 30 Setting Powder.

This setting powder is the perfect touch-up tool, it helps absorb excess oil and provides protection from the sun, you know how much I love multi-purpose.

As someone who has oily skin, it’s amazing to have found a product that absorbs oil without ruining my makeup! Like I said I don’t leave the house without this setting powder, the convenient and disposable on-the-go packaging makes it so easy for everyday travel- just blot and toss! 

This SPF Setting Powder will ultimately help you keep your makeup fresh by controlling the oils on your skin and creating a layer of protection from the sun. Don’t let sweaty season ruin your makeup, you deserve better!

And it’s that simple, friends. By incorporating these few products into your routine, you will be able to enjoy your flawless makeup results for longer…AKA more time to show off! These few short steps will go a very long way, so be in control of your results this season. 

Summer Vacation Must-Haves

It’s officially vacation season and I couldn’t be happier about it! Even though we all LOVE vacation, we also love all of our makeup products. So how do we decide which products get a spot in our travel bag? Have no fear, your favorite makeup lover is HERE! 

Thanks to LUMINESS, I don’t have to stress about achieving flawless makeup results when I travel, they make it easy! These are my go-to travel products that help me achieve beautiful makeup results on-the-go and take up minimal space in my travel bag. 

BREEZE AIRBRUSH SYSTEM

The cordless Breeze System is LUMINESS’ newest system, taking on-the-go glam to a whole new level. You need this system to travel as much as you need your airplane neck pillow.

As mentioned, it’s cordless- so it’s plane, car, sidewalk, spaceship friendly…meaning you can apply your makeup ANYWHERE. 

With this system you can apply foundation, eyeshadow, bronzer annnnd the list goes on. You can complete almost your whole makeup routine using the Breeze.

Forget about the hassle of packing all your makeup brushes, the Breeze is all your makeup brushes in ONE device. This handheld airbrush system is the definition of travel-friendly beauty, apply your favorite airbrush cosmetics with ease. No need to worry about a messy makeup bag with this handheld game-changer. 

ROSE  4-IN-1 FOUNDATION 

So, for those of you who are new here, I love multi-purpose products in general, because it saves you time and money and just overall makes your routine easier.

BUT I love them, even more, when it comes to traveling. Rose 4-In-1 Foundation is the perfect travel-friendly foundation because it acts like four products in one.

It acts as your primer, concealer, foundation, AND anti-aging serum. This one product saves you a lot of room in your makeup bag and shortens your makeup routine, which is HUGE because let’s face it no one wants to waste their time on vacation getting ready.

Of course, we all want to feel beautiful on vacation but don’t want to spend a million years getting ready and it feels like that’s impossible to achieve. However, LUMINESS’ products make it very very possible. 

Rose 4-In-1 Foundation provides medium to full coverage and an absolutely flawless finish. For those of you who like less coverage and more of a sheer look, I recommend Silk 4-In-1 Foundation!

Silk Foundation is also multi-purpose but provides light coverage. So don’t worry there’s a vacay foundation for EVERYONE!

KINETIC SMOOTH DUO BLADE HAIR REMOVER

As someone who has struggled with razor burn and bumps from traditional shaving and waxing the Kinetic Smooth Duo Blade Hair Remover has made a huge impact on my results and my confidence.

This hair remover is so much easier than traditional shaving and it leaves my skin smooth and bump-free. This device allows me to feel comfortable in a bikini again!

No water and shaving cream needed to achieve a safe, painless shave, every time in or out of the shower. Enjoy your smooth skin all vacay long by removing facial and body hair so easily.

It’s an absolute no-brainer to bring this device for your summer vacay, forget that travel size shaving cream and disposable razor, your skin deserves better. So save your time and money and cancel that waxing appointment because, with the device, it won’t be necessary. 

SPF SETTING POWDER

Want to get rid of that midday excess oil, but don’t want to ruin your makeup? Well, the SPF Setting Powder is about to be your best friend. This convenient setting powder is packaged specifically for on-the-go glam. Therefore, this is a summer vacay must-have. The setting powder packets are so small they can fit in your pocket!

Not only does this powder absorb oil from your skin, but it also protects your skin from the sun with its SPF 30 formula. So again, another multi-purpose product, and that’s what we need people!! It can be used with makeup or alone. 

As someone who has extremely oily skin, this Setting Powder has helped my makeup last longer and look fresh throughout the entire day. I love how the SPF 30 Setting Powder Protects my makeup and my skin from the sun. So, before you leave for your trip, fill up your beach bag with the SPF 30 Sunscreen Setting Powder, you won’t regret it.

Ready to start packing? I promise you these products will make your suitcase a little lighter and allow you to enjoy your vacation…and always look amazing.

This is the ultimate time and money saver, spend less time in the salon and more time showing off your airbrush results.

Oh and since multi-purpose is my word of the day…I’d like to mention that this product is not just for your roots, it’s also for your brows. You can add shape and color to your brows with this formula using our helpful brow stencils. You never have to stress about your brows being uneven!

So if we have one tool that shortens our routine, what else could we possibly need? Yes, it gets even better, imagine having FOUR products in ONE! Not only does LUMINESS bless us with a machine that makes our lives so much easier, but they also offer multi-purpose foundations. 

For those of you who like medium to full coverage and love the smell of fresh roses, say hello to Rose 4-In-1 Foundation. If you like light coverage, your new bestie is Silk 4-In-1 Foundation.

Luminizers

I want all my makeup lovers to get the most out of ALL their beauty products. Even if products aren’t promoted as “multi-purpose”, that doesn’t mean they aren’t.

I’m sure you have a few products sitting on your vanity that you never even thought to use in a different way, but definitely can! I say this because sometimes I only discover things like this until I’m in a pinch and only have one product. So I stumbled upon this hack by accident, but chocolate chip cookies were originally an accident, so it’s a positive. 

LUMINESS’ Luminizers are beautifully pigmented highlighters that can be used wherever you normally place your highlighter. I like to apply highlighter on my brow bones, the tip of my nose, cupid’s bow and chin. However, you can always use these gorgeous shades as eyeshadow!

These Luminizers are the perfect shimmer for your lids! This hack is great to keep in mind when traveling to save space in your makeup, but can also save you money! Utilize LUMINESS’ high pigmented formulas and have fun thinking outside the box. 

You no longer have to dread your routine or worry about overspending on products because LUMINESS understands your needs as a makeup lover. We all want to spend less money on makeup products, shorten our routines, and achieve beautiful results-thankfully LUMINESS makes all of this possible! 

How to Tone Your Face

Spoiler alert, no sweat required

PSA: Attention to everyone and anyone, did you know you can tone your face without exercising? Yes, my friends you heard me correctly! I know you’re familiar with LUMINESS’ Airbrush Systems, AKA the life-changing tools I’m always talking about. BUT I have another must-have beauty tool that will snap your face into shape better than any fad diet.

Ladies and gentlemen, I’d like to introduce you to the Conture Kinetic Toning System. This toning system is an anti-aging beauty device that tones skin to restore radiance and firmness to the three main areas: décolleté, eye area, forehead.

The best part is it’s non-invasive AND painless, which is important because we don’t have time to rest and not look glamorous! So, it’s basically a personal trainer for your face. 

If used once or twice daily, you will see SHOCKING results. I’m sure you’re thinking oh great I have to add ANOTHER step to my beauty routine but stop right there because you know I always keep your time in mind with my beauty advice.

Listen, guys, I use this machine while I’m watching tv or on the phone-I even used it in the car the other day (I wasn’t the driver, don’t worry). But to my point, it’s so easy to use and it takes 10 minutes tops! 

Also, it’s amazing that the device comes with the Kinetic Treatment Serum, superstar backbone of the Conture Toning Device. This Kinetic Treatment Serum is formulated with the revolutionary peptide SNAP-8, which has been clinically shown to reduce crow’s feet. Now that you know a little bit about the device, here’s how to use it!

1) After priming cleansed skin with Kinetic Treatment Serum, turn on Skin Toning Device and place on skin, ensuring connection is secure.

2)After device pulses 3-5 times, gently slide to treat next section, slightly overlapping with previous section.

3)Moving in an upward motion towards the top of the face, repeat until entire section has been treated.

4)Treat one area at a time, working device over cheeks, jawline, forehead, neck, etc. independent of each other.

After you’ve completed the treatment be sure to moisturize your skin. In the morning I use the AM Ignition Lotion to kickstart my day with ultimate hydration.

At night, I use PM Recovery Creme-this intensive moisturizer helps my skin recover while I sleep. Create a smooth and hydrated canvas for your makeup by keeping up with your skincare routine and adding in your new best friend, the Contoure Kinetic Toning Device!

See I told you it was SO simple and can be done anywhere! Relax while you do the treatment, binge-watch your favorite show, and tone your face at the same time. I wish toning the rest of my body was this easy!

This device will improve your overall makeup results because it creates a smooth wrinkle-free surface, which will allow your makeup to apply easily and beautifully.

No need to worry about your makeup settling into fine lines or the dry cakey look, if you keep up with your skincare routine, you can kiss these common issues goodbye! 

So, my makeup lovers, are you excited to exercise your faces with minimal effort? It’s time to restore radiance and firmness to tired and aging skin, the non-painful way! If you want younger-looking skin and more radiant skin, it’s time to start toning!

Summer 2021 Makeup Trends

Hello hello, makeup squad! I’m in awe of this summer’s makeup trends and I can’t wait to share them with you guys. As you all know, I like to look at makeup trends as fun suggestions.

Of course, I stick to the routine that I feel confident in, BUT I’m not scared to test out a new technique or product because that’s how we grow as beauty lovers, right? Makeup is supposed to be fun, remember??? 

Let’s dive into this summer’s popular makeup trends….

GLOW GETTER SEASON

You’re always a go-getter, but this season’s calling for some extra glow. This season is celebrating healthy and radiant skin! Good thing my makeup squad has been keeping up with their skincare routine, but if you’re new here, let me explain how important a solid skincare routine is for your makeup results! 

In order to have smooth and flawless makeup results, you MUST have a clean canvas. By clean canvas, I mean a hydrated and fresh face! To achieve a smooth canvas, please EXFOLIATE, this will remove all dead skin and impurities from your face.

I recommend the Bamboo Facial Exfoliant for thorough exfoliation, removing all impurities from the skin! Another important step in your skincare routine is hydration.

Hydrated skin will make it easier to cover fine lines and wrinkles by creating a smoother complexion. To moisturize, I use Kinetic AM lotion in the morning (hence, AM)  and Kinetic PM Lotion at night (duh).

Kinetic AM Ignition lotion is a lightweight, yet intensive moisturizer that hydrates skin while helping it retain essential moisture. Kinetic PM Recovery lotion is an intensive night cream that helps the skin recover while you sleep.

They both should be used daily to minimize wrinkles and achieve ultimate hydration! This skincare routine will definitely provide the glow-getter look EASILY. 

If you’re looking to enhance your natural glow, I’d suggest using Airbrush Love Illuminator. You can use it with or without makeup to add a subtle dewy shine to your face!

Just add a few drops into your airbrush system and spray where you want to shine. And don’t worry, there’s no shimmer, when I say subtle, I mean it!

EXTROVERTED EYESHADOW 

This season’s eyeshadow is the furthest thing from shy! If you’re dying to have some fun with colorful shadows, then honey this is YOUR season. I’ve seen bright eyeshadow trends before, but NEVER like this.

This season we’re using the entire color wheel with tie-dye eyeshadows. I know tie-dye sweatsuits are in, but apparently, people are wearing it on their eyelids as well. Our Airbrush Eyeshadows are perfect for this look because the shadows are so pigmented and the airbrush stylus makes it so easy to apply. 

Along with tie-dye eyeshadow, another popular eyeshadow trend this season is pastels. I feel like pastels aren’t used enough for makeup looks and they should be! I can’t wait to show off a fun pastel look using Click N Play Eyeshadows. 

Whether you’re participating in these trends or not, LUMINESS provides so many different eyeshadows from airbrush to traditional, with an amazing variety of colors. With LUMINESS you will never be bored of your eyeshadow selection. 

VIBRANT LIPS

Lipsticks are a girl’s best friend and in this case, a VIBRANT best friend. This summer is puckering up for bright and playful lip colors. Softs and neutrals we love you, but we won’t be packing you in our suitcase for this summer’s vacation!

Get ready to incorporate bright pinks, corals and bold reds into your makeup looks this season, specifically matte or high-pigmented lipsticks. 

Summer proof your makeup bag with my favorite bright and bold lippies: 

The PERFECT Bright Pinks:

Chromatic Lip Stain-Magenta Rock

Forever Reign- Alist

The BOLDEST Reds: 

Creme Confession-Red Cape

Obsession Liquid Lipstick- Big Poppy

The MUST-HAVE Corals:

Captive Lip Liner- Tangerine

Vinyl Slick Lipstick-Merengue

BOUT THAT BLUSH

Oh, I am all about that blush, so I guess it’s my lucky season! Everyone can appreciate a classic blush look, to add shape and color to our faces, but what if I told you rosy, red cheeks are back to play?

Remember when you were embarrassed about blushing or ashamed of your sunburn? Well, forget about that this summer! The sun-kissed rosy cheek makeup look is in and I have to say, it’s soooooo cute.

This look is so easy to achieve with our Airbrush Blush because LUMINESS offers a variety of blush shades, so don’t worry-the perfect shade of sunburn is waiting for you.

All you have to do is pour 2 drops of airbrush blush into your system and apply to the apple of your cheek and then do a light pass over your nose, for that naturally sun-kissed look! 

Well, friends, those are the bold and daring summer 2021 makeup trends! How’s everyone feeling about these trends? Comment which trends you can’t WAIT to try!

Behind The Airbrush

As a makeup lover of LUMINESS, I think it’s important to share with you guys why I love LUMINESS, and it’s not just because they have amazing products. As members of the beauty community, we should all be aware of a brand’s story, mission, and reputation. 

As a beauty brand, LUMINESS understands that they have a responsibility to promote the importance of confidence in one’s self and makeup results. They support this responsibility by providing a wide variety of beauty products, from airbrush to skincare.

LUMINESS also offers several resources to help their customers when it comes to makeup applications or beauty-related inquiries. The LUMINESS family strives to make everyone feel like a beautiful airbrush pro!

To me, LUMINESS is like an older sister that I look up to. I say that because I can always count on them to launch innovative products, and they are always willing to help, just as a role model would, but I’ll get more into that later!

Anyways, here’s a little bit of background on my brand crush, LUMINESS!

STORY

Around 25 years ago, innovator, artist, and entrepreneur Sean Mehta had a fashion and garment business as one of the largest importers of beaded gowns in the US. During photoshoots for each fashion collection, he noticed the makeup artists were always using airbrush systems on the models. 

He would ask each makeup artist, why are you using an airbrush system? The response was always the same – It’s the best and best way to give you the flawless long-lasting look. So, he thought to himself – if airbrushing is the best way to give women great natural-looking coverage – WHY doesn’t every woman have one? 

And then, the LUMINESS Airbrush System was born, making millions more confident in their makeup results. LUMINESS turned heads by bringing professional makeup results to people’s homes, ensuring that EVERYONE can airbrush. 

LUMINESS COMMUNITY

What I truly admire about LUMINESS is the support that they offer. This support is shown in so many different ways, it’s hard to touch on all of it, but what other beauty brand do you know that offers free sessions to answer any beauty questions?? If you are interested in booking a session, here’s the link: https://luminessbeautybar.as.me/schedule.php

Couldn’t find a session that works for your schedule? Did you know LUMINESS makeup artists also go live on FB and YouTube Monday-Friday at 9:30 CT to go over airbrush basics, AND answer any questions you may have-how amazing is that? 

Oh, and it doesn’t stop there, you can connect with a LUMINESS makeup artist to find the perfect foundation shade for you! LUMINESS is truly here for all of you, if you have any questions about your order, customer service is happy to help you as well!

I love their willingness to help and ensure every customer feels beautiful. This is huge in the beauty world and I know all my fellow makeup lovers appreciate a brand that truly cares. 

LIFE-CHANGING PRODUCTS

Of course, I’m forever grateful that LUMINESS introduced me to airbrushing and their airbrush systems are absolutely life-changing, but it doesn’t stop there. LUMINESS understands the importance of versatility.

Yes, the airbrush systems make it easy to apply most of your makeup, by using one tool to apply several different products. But LUMINESS also creates multi-purpose products that can shorten your routine EVEN more.

For example, the Rose 4-In-1 Foundation makes my makeup routine SO much easier, I use that foundation as my primer, concealer, foundation, and anti-aging serum. So, thank you LUMINESS for making my busy mornings less stressful. 

THEY GIVE BACK

I always appreciate when a beauty company or any company uses their platform to support non-profit organizations. I was so excited to see that LUMINESS is teaming up with ASPCA to join the fight against animal cruelty!

LUMINESS will donate $1 for every airbrush system sold until June 2021, with a maximum donation of $50,000. The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals provides animals medical care and behavioral rehabilitation. This non-profit organization also helps thousands of animals find loving homes every year.

Are you ready to join the fight? Buy an airbrush system when it counts! See LUMINESS’ full Airbrush collection here:

If you didn’t understand why I’m obsessed with LUMINESS as a beauty brand, I’m certain you do now! LUMINESS is a brand that provides amazing products and genuinely cares about its community-as a makeup lover that’s all I ask for!

So LUMINESS, thank you for blessing me and my makeup squad with your AMAZING airbrush systems. More importantly, thank you for being such a positive influence on the beauty world.

Airbrush Hacks

For my loyal readers, you know how much I love airbrush and I know you do as well. To fill in the newbies, an airbrush system is a magical makeup tool that makes it so easy to achieve flawless makeup results. 

All LUMINESS airbrush systems are versatile tools, you can use an airbrush system to complete most of your makeup look and shorten your routine- no brushes required!

For those of you who are just starting to play with your new toy (airbrush system), I’m sure you have a few questions! Here are a few helpful tips that can elevate your airbrush results. 

IN BETWEEN FOUNDATION SHADES?

If you haven’t found one singular foundation shade that works for your skin tone, don’t worry with an airbrush system you can personalize your foundation shade!

One of the best airbrush features is the ability to mix shades…at home! Remember, I’m by no means a makeup artist so the fact that it’s easy for anyone to create a personalized foundation shade is amazing!

I’ve always been in-between shades and with traditional makeup, it never looked right or blend well when I would mix shades manually. Here’s how to effortlessly create the perfect foundation shade for your complexion. 

  1. Apply 3-4 drops of each shade into the foundation well 
  2. Firmly hold finger over the tip 
  3. Pull back on trigger to mix colors 
  4. Start applying your PERSONALIZED foundation

See, I told you airbrush elevates your makeup game, you can create the perfect shade right from your very own makeup chair! Isn’t this everything we’ve ever wanted?

Say goodbye to buying a new foundation every season! Take a peek at the amazing selection of airbrush foundations:

DYING FOR THE DEWY LOOK?

Has anyone else struggled with finding the perfect dewy finish? To me, I always felt like I either looked greasy or the dewiness was invisible, but with Airbrush Love Illuminator, I found the perfect in-between.

This hydrating formula contains a tinted sheer base which, when airbrushed on the skin, creates luminosity and natural dewiness to the skin. Here are a few ways I have fun with Love Illuminator.

For all dewy finish: 

-Add a drop or two of LOVE illuminator in with your foundation for a subtle glow.

or

Highlight (don’t worry, there’s no shimmer, just glow): 

-Apply lightly to your cheekbones, brow bone, nose, and cupid’s bow

As makeup lovers, I’m sure you are so happy to finally have found the PERFECT dewy finish (I know I am). 

BLUSH TOO MUCH? 

Are you loving your Airbrush Blush, but want to achieve a softer blush look? I’m here to save the day once again! I personally love blush, but I love the natural blush look.

Since LUMINESS’ blush is amazing and extremely high-pigmented, I have a quick tip that will give you a way softer look. 

  1. Apply airbrush blush on cheekbones
  2. Apply airbrush foundation over it! 

A simple fix is an understatement! I’m sure you use to the application of traditional makeup which requires blush after foundation, but if you’re looking for a softer look- apply blush first! 

OIL OVERLOAD?

Do you have a little too much shine and want a little bit more of a matte finish? Well then, you are going to LOVE this last tip. Here’s how I reduce my natural shininess.

  1. Before applying airbrush foundation, apply setting powder to oily areas like your brow bone, nose, and chin.
  2. Apply airbrush foundation
  3. Enjoy your oil-free flawless matte finish

Applying powder before airbrush foundation is a great way to absorb excess oil, this will ultimately lead to more of a matte finish. For peeps, with oily skin, I’m sure you’re stocking up on setting powder as we speak!

I’ve always struggled with oily skin, so this is for sure a go-to hack of mine. I recommend the Sheer Compact Finishing Powder, it is life-changing!

I hope all of my fellow airbrush lovers are excited to try some of my helpful tips and the newbies are looking forward to joining the airbrush world. Newbies, here’s the link to all of LUMINESS’ Airbrush Systems:

As always, I want to hear from all of you! If you have any questions about my airbrush hacks, please comment below or if you need help getting started with airbrushing, schedule a session with a LUMINESS airbrush expert: https://luminessbeautybar.as.me/schedule.php

ROSE 4-IN-1 FOUNDATION

Summer is a busy time of the year, which means we want to spend less time inside getting ready and more time outside to enjoy summer festivities. So, wouldn’t it be amazing to have a multi-purpose foundation to make your makeup routine shorter?

Well, great news, this life foundation exists and it’s called Rose 4-In-1 Foundation. Airbrush Rose 4-In-1 Foundation provides medium-full coverage and acts as your primer, concealer, foundation, and anti-aging serum.

This is the perfect foundation for summer because it shortens your routine and gives you flawless natural-looking results. Oh, and I’m sure you guessed this, but it smells like fresh roses. Isn’t it the best when your foundation smells fresh and clean? It doesn’t even feel like foundation at that point it’s more like a spa treatment! 

If you don’t need medium-full coverage, but love all that Rose 4-in-1 offers, I’d recommend Silk 4-In-1 Foundation. This foundation is also multi-purpose but it provides sheer to light coverage giving you a natural-looking beautiful finish.

LUMINESS offers foundations for all skin types, with a large variety of shades. To see the full collection, visit the airbrush foundation page:

LOVE ILLUMINATOR 

This product just screams healthy summer skin!!! Airbrush Love Illuminator hydrates while adding subtle illumination, warmth, and glow to the skin, keyword subtle. It’s not overly shiny or greasy looking at all, it’s the perfect soft dewy-finish we’ve been searching for!

If you want a dewy glow all over, you can apply the illuminator the same way you would apply your airbrush foundation, or you can even mix it in with your foundation!

If you’re like me and just want a little glow in certain areas, after applying foundation, apply Love illuminator to your brow bones, cheekbones, nose, and cupid’s bow! Both applications look gorgeous, it’s all preference! 

BAMBOO POLISH

Time to get rid of that stubborn dead skin that’s holding you back from flawless results. The Bamboo Polish Facial Exfoliant reveals a revitalized appearance, while greatly reducing clogged pores and removing dead skin. This will help you achieve amazing results because it will create a smooth canvas for your makeup. (AKA healthy and clean skin). 

If you have super sensitive skin, I’d recommend Superfruit Cleanser for a gentler exfoliation. This unique cocktail of papaya and pineapple enzymes balances moisture without stripping the skin of its natural oils.

The Superfruit Cocktail Cleanser smells just as good as it sounds, of course, it’s the perfect product for summer-it smells like a fruity tropical cocktail!

Both exfoliators thoroughly remove skin impurities, you cannot go wrong. Just please, don’t turn your back on exfoliating-be sure to exfoliate twice a week! Remember, we’re not just cleansing our skin, we’re prepping our canvases!! So pretty please, the flawless results you desire-take care of your skin!

SPF 30 SETTING POWDER

So, as I literally JUST mentioned, it’s important to take care of your skin by using the right products in your skincare routine, but a part of taking care of your skin is protecting your skin from the sun.

That’s why I use SPF Sunscreen Setting Powder for midday touch-ups! It’s great to protect your skin from the sun while absorbing excess oil, without ruining your makeup (you know how much I love multi-purpose).

The blotting powder also comes in the most convenient on-the-go packaging, they fit perfectly in any purse, wallet, or even your pocket!

OH…and I can’t forget about …..

Mother’s Day Gift Guide

As my loyal makeup lovers, you know I’m always here to give you makeup advice, but for this blog post, I’m blessing you with an amazing Mother’s day gift guide. This is the perfect time of year to thank the woman who shaped you into the beautiful makeup lover you are today.

I totally get that every makeup lover is different, depending on lifestyle or just personal preference, so I know it can be challenging buying beauty products for other people, but LUMINESS makes it easy. (and of course, I’m here to help)

I know I probably sound like a broken record, but remember without a solid skincare routine-it’s almost impossible to achieve flawless results without taking care of your skin. So don’t rule out skincare as a gift for your Mother! I’m breaking down the ultimate gift guide for every type of mom and beauty enthusiast to ensure your mom feels beautiful this Mother’s Day. 

Here’s a list of products your mom NEEDS this Mother’s Day.

I’m sure you guys saw this one coming, but all LUMINESS airbrush systems are PERFECT for moms. Airbrushing saves you so much time, by covering my imperfections so quickly and using one tool for almost your ENTIRE makeup routine!

You don’t have to worry about finding the right brush or making sure they’re clean because let’s be honest, who has time to clean their makeup brushes? Not moms!

They will most likely just buy new makeup brushes because it’s easier..which leads me to my next point. Airbrush also saves you so much money compared to traditional makeup!

There’s no need to replenish your makeup brush collection with airbrush, you use one tool for almost everything! With a LUMINESS Airbrush System, you can apply your eye and face makeup, fill in your roots, and also give yourself a natural-looking at-home spray tan!

LUMINESS Airbrush Systems are so versatile. Are you a super busy mom that’s always on the go? Don’t worry, the cordless breeze system can help you achieve flawless results from just about anywhere! There’s a perfect airbrush system for everyone, check out all the LUMINESS Airbrush Systems here:

And of course, the most important part, the results. You can achieve flawless results so easily with all LUMINESS airbrush systems. They cover imperfections so quickly and easily, making your routine shorter, but also give you AMAZING results. What’s better than that? I think my point is proven!

CONTURE TONING DEVICE

Okay so remember when I said you or your mom shouldn’t be sleeping on your skincare routine? Would you believe me if I told you, I know a way to exercise your face that doesn’t involve cardio? Well, it’s time to start exercising your skin!

My new favorite toy, the Conture Toning Device is a non-invasive anti-aging tool that tones your face and reduces wrinkles. The Contoure Toning Device utilizes Isometric Compression combined with low-frequency vibrations to gently stimulate and tone skin.

All you need is the Kinetic Treatment Serum and you can get to toning. This is the perfect gift for your mom because it’s easy to use and the results are insane! What’s a better gift than youthful-looking skin? Your mom will LOVE this and NEEDS this. 

VELVET VEIL

Velvet Veil Skin Perfecting Serum is so necessary for everyone…can’t you tell by the title? This serum smoothes fine lines and pores creating the perfect base for your makeup!

And it doesn’t stop there, Velvet Veil is essentially a primer that instantly mattifies and hydrates the skin, I even wear it without makeup sometimes- that tells you something about the results!

This allows mom to take a break from makeup for a day, but still feel confident in their skin. If you’re eyeing an airbrush system for your mom, throw in a bottle of Velvet Veil to enhance her airbrush results.

KINETIC SMOOTH DUO HAIR REMOVER

This hair remover is an absolute lifesaver..have you ever met anyone that enjoys the tedious process of traditional shaving? This hair remover can be used from ANYWHERE, no water or shaving cream required!

This powerful shaver easily removes hair without redness or bumps while covering larger areas with ease-if this isn’t a mommy must-have then I don’t know what is!

The fun doesn’t stop there, with this device you can switch the head for ultimate self-care. The Pumice Head can be used on rough areas like your feet, hands, and elbows to remove dead skin cells to achieve more radiant skin.

The Polishing Head works to remove surface oils and impurities from your face to brighten your complexion. For those of you with sensitive skin, I recommend the Silicone Cleansing Head.

It gently, but thoroughly cleanses the skin by massaging away all impurities. Can anyone say at-home spa day? And I’m not finished just yet, there’s one more!

The Smooth Massaging Head stimulates the skin for better absorption of serums and lotions while improving the appearance of puffiness and dark circles under the eye. Every mom deserves a relaxing spa day, why not give her the tools to do it from home! 

I hope all my fellow makeup lovers know EXACTLY what to get all the moms in their life for Mother’s Day. You are all about to be the favorite child for these AMAZING gifts.

At the end of the day, everyone deserves to feel beautiful. Flowers are great, but nothing beats a gift that keeps on giving! So give your mom or a special mom in your life a gift that will make them feel confident and beautiful every day, that is the greatest gift of all.
