Concealing Blemishes with airbrush makeup

Concealing blemishes with cream concealer is simple enough if you can find yourself a concealer that does the job and lasts all day... With airbrush makeup it can be tricky
When you conceal do you often get hot spots?
Have you looked online at video how too's and wonder why its not working for you?
Do you not use enough product in fear of a hot spot that you don't completly cover the blemish?

Well if you do I' am here to help you!

First get over the fear that makes you not want to try.
Second get comfortable with your lever.
Third pull out a practice color and begin to practice.

The secret to covering blemishes with airbrush makeup is lever control. yes you need to be able to stay super light on the lever. Another helpful tip is to lower your compressor speed I find that 10 o'clock is the perfect speed to set your compressor to to cover those unwanted blemishes. But the best tip you can possibly get is simply PRACTICE it takes practice to control your lever comfortably so definitely practice. From my experience covering blemishes if found that you don't want to be too close to the blemish you want to always keep the airbrush gun moving and don't forget to blend. Using a lighter color to conceal anything that you don't want to brighten is a bad idea so stick to colors that you know will correct or conceal or just stick yo using your normal foundation shade.

Here is a video demonstrating how I cover blemishes with airbrush makeup.

Tis the Season

Day 3 of Airbrushing Christmas brings us to this Tis the Season eye look. Christmas showcases Colors in sparkle and metallic s with greens, golds, reds, silvers, coppers, blues, the list of shades is huge. So I though Tis the Season for a high colorful Metallic look that is still glam for this holiday season!

To get this look...

Step 1: Apply Enchanted (Colair- Opalescent line white shade) to your Crease/ Transition depending on your eye composition. Also apply it to your tear duct and feather it up to connect with your transition/ crease. Then connect this color from the tear duct to the inner corner of your lower lash line.

Step 2: Apply Appletini (Colair- Opalescent line Lime Green shade) in a V shape on the Outer corner of the lid and up to the transition, Blend this color into the Enchanted in your transition on the outer corner of the lid only. Then apply this shade to the outer corner of the lower lash line by connecting the Outer V to the lower lash line.

Step 3: Apply Fawn Brown (Glamor Shade from Dinair's Eyeshadow Line) To the Outer Corner of the Eye blending it into the natural fold of the Lid. Careful not to cover the Appletini on the outer V.

Step 4: Apply Lady Luck (Colair- Opalescent line Copper shade) to the lid Starting from the inner corner through to the outer corner not covering but blending into the Fawn Brown. remember to apply this color all over the lid meaning blend it into the enchanted in the transition but do not cover it. Also apply this color to the remainder of the lower lash line between the Enchanted and Appletini.

Step 5: Apply your Airliner, here I used Jet Black but feel free to use any liner color you like. Apply your liner using Dinair's Cat eye end Stencil.

Optional Step 6: To tone down the Appletini use a foundation shade lighter than your normal foundation shade and apply it lightly over the Appletini. Be careful not to cover it completely the opalescent line is very bold and you want to keep the essence of the color. which finished beautifully as a pop on the outer V.

Then Apply your Favorite Glam lashes and you are all set!

Step 2: Apply Sage Green to the lid starting from the outer v of the eye all the way through to the inner corner of the lid. Then apply this color to the lower lash line staring at the outer corner towards the inner corner of the lower lash line.

Step 3: Apply Opal White to the tear duct, and then feather it on the inner lid towards the transition. Apply this color on the inner corner of the lower lash line blending it into the sage green Apply this color on the brow bone as well as a highlight

Step 4: Apply Jet Black Liner using the cat eye end stencil. You can find this stencil airbrushmakeup.com.

Is this your First Time?

I love airbrush makeup so much that I feel compelled to constantly spread the word in hopes that more and more people will give it a shot and eventually fall in love with it too. Today I had the chance to do my sisters makeup, yes I was the first airbrush MUA to apply airbrush makeup to her lovely skin. She is an extremely talented MUA who has constantly proved her skills as a makeup artist by traveling with her glam squad to beautify the stars in Los Angeles California. Now she loves and is addicted to traditional makeup but today she allowed me to grace her skin with airbrush makeup. So with much excitement I proceeded

I started out with a blank canvas and applied Smashbox Photofinish Primer in light to her skin concentrating to the areas that tend to be more oily. Then I applied urban decay's primer potion the original formula as a base on her eye lids. Next I applied an orange highlighter cream corrector that can be purchased at airbrush makeup.com to her under eye area to counterbalance her dark under eye circles as well as brighten them. Now it was time to apply her airbrush makeup! I began with her eye makeup applying lt. Smoke to her transition, dk. Brown to the outer corner lightly as to not make it too bold because she is pretty fair. Next I added sage green to make her deep brown eyes pop, I applied it on the lid starting at the tear duct and blending it across her lid into the dk. Brown outer corner. Next I applied her highlight using gold and adding it to her tear duct and her brown bone.

After her airshadow was complete I lined her eyes using my eyeliner stencil from airbrush makeup.com with the shade jet black. Once her eyes were complete I began on her complexion.

I started by applying peach pink to her cheek bones followed by lt. Bronze as a contor under her cheekbones and her temples as well as under her jawline. I then took lt. Golden beige and applied it in circular motions to even out her skin and provide a healthy radiant complexion.

Next I blended the lt. Golden beige down her neck and into her décolletage. Once everything was blended a lip color, lashes, and mascara was applied, and here is the finished look

Over all the airbrush makeup was beautifully natural looking evening out her skin with nothing less than a flawless radiant finish.

Airbrush is light weight, rub resistant, water resistant, hypoallergenic, and noncomedogenic. It creates a natural finish to the skin while providing exquisite coverage buildible from sheer to full. If you haven't tried it I definitely recommend that you do! You will be amazed at what it can do because with airbrush makeup the possibilities are Endless!
