There are several reasons why a woman may choose air-brushed makeup. The finish result is often more natural in appearance than powder or foundations. Airbrush makeup also has the ability to make the skin tone appear even, which is a plus for women with blemishes or birthmarks they’d like to hide. Women can also choose between light, medium and heavy coverage, depending on the look they want for that day. Air-brush makeup lasts for hours as well, and is easy to apply. Spray on makeup is also ideal for those with sensitive skin. Since brushes are not needed to apply the makeup, the chance of bacteria settling on the skin due to makeup buildup and contaminated brushes is minimal.

As with conventional makeup, finding the perfect shade of airbrush makeup is essential. The makeup should compliment the undertones of the skin as well as the main color of the complexion. It may be helpful to take a look at some before and after pictures to get an idea of how the makeup will look before purchase.

The makeup comes in a pod case and is inserted into an airbrush machine. The nozzle of the machine is adjustable so that as little or as much makeup as desired will come out with each push of the nozzle. The machine is also portable and lightweight, so it can easily be carried to different locations if reapplication as needed.

In addition to foundation, there are also airbrush makeup pods designed to provide a healthy glow to the entire body. These products are similar to a spray tan. Some makeup pods are used to hide blemishes on the skin. Spray-on bronzer is an option as well. While this is not as intense as a spray tan, the color gives the skin a sun-kissed shimmer that is ideal for the spring and summer months. Airbrush blushes are also available to provide subtle or intense color to the cheeks, which helps to complete a makeup look.
