What is Airbrush Makeup?

Airbrush makeup is a growing trend in the cosmetic industry. It's a process where the artist uses an airbrush gun to apply a steady stream of microsized particals of foundation on your face; giving you the appearance of flawless coverage. The airbrush gun never actually touches your face, the foundation is essentially "blown" gently onto the skin by way of a compressor unit. This process leaves your face feeling lighter than if you had just worn a powder. Airbrush makeup can be applied to the eyes and cheeks as well, though some artists still prefer the control of traditional eyeshadows on the skin. Airbrush makeup is bragged to be very long wearing and usually shine free. Cost wise, airbrush tends to be more expensive because of the cost of supplies to the artist.
