Top Tips for Flawless Skin: Become a Makeup Artist at Home!

Have you ever wondered why models and Hollywood’s finest always appear so beautifully put together in the magazines? Two words, air brush! If you have ever wondered if flawless skin was a possibility for the average person, wonder no more. With a little practice and the right tools, you can become your own makeup artist and learn to apply airbrush makeup like a professional.

Air Brush Makeup
What exactly is airbrush makeup? Airbrushing is a patented technique that utilizes special tools to spray on airbrush makeup. This is a tiny air compressor that allows you to spray on a fine mist of makeup, which is reported to last up to 24 hours with no touch up required.


In order to get started you will need a complete airbrush makeup kit, these can be found online or through select retail outlets. Most kits will come with sample colors for you to experiment with; however, you will likely need to purchase some additional colors. For the best results choose a kit that comes with an instructional video because while makeup artists make it look easy it will take a little practice and know how.

Pros:
•    Process- many claim the airbrush makeup process is rather soothing
•    Weight- since your makeup is in essence being painted on, you might think it would be heavy; however, airbrush makeup is actually quite light.
•    No Brushes- sanitation is never an issue since there are no pads or brushes used during application.
•    Transfer- have you ever hugged someone only to leave part of your face on his or her jacket? Airbrushed varieties will not transfer to another person’s clothing or skin.
•    Makeup- airbrush makeup is hypoallergenic which means nearly anyone can use it
•    Results- there is a reason a professional makeup artist uses airbrushing, flawless results!
•    Coverage- airbrushing is popular due to the fact you can cover up nearly any blemish as well as scars and even tattoos. (requires specialty makeup)

Cons:
•    Kits- starter kits can be a bit expensive, with the best ones currently selling for over $200
•    Practice- take the time to learn all you can about the process, otherwise you could wind up looking like a circus act.
•    Moisture- there is some debate about whether airbrush makeups are truly waterproof, do your homework before choosing a particular brand.

Facts
Becoming your own makeup artist is possible if you are willing to spend the time and money required. Getting started with airbrush makeup will cost you a minimum of $300 and could go as high as $1,000. Nevertheless, if you want a light wearing makeup that provides for flawless skin with every application, airbrush is your best bet. Pay close attention to the different types of makeup, especially the full coverage foundations as many are silicon based. If you suffer from silicon allergies, you will want to go with a water-based makeup instead.

Conclusion
Aside from the initial investment, becoming an airbrush makeup artist is not that difficult. Spend some time today researching the different kits and products on the market so that you make an informed decision. Once you have your kit in hand, you are mere days away from quickly becoming a makeup artist in your own right!
