I didn't purchase my airbrush unit from there however... I found it on eBay, about $98.00 cheaper!
Hi, I also like the 02 cosmetics foundations, they provide a bit more coverage, you need to go to the 02cosmetics website, I would also check out the dinair website, they have a ton of cool products, makeup, and information!
As for the warranty specifying that you may only use the Luminess makeup, I have used several others.... the actual airbrush is the SAME as others, very simple to take apart and clean, a couple pieces and a pin (which you can replace easily), and of course the air compressor (which has nothing to do with touching the makeup), there would really be no way for them to know whether you had used other makeup in it or not, it is just a way to get you to spend more money by only being able to purchase their products.... Don't get me wrong, I do like their foundations... but they are shear and I have also enjoyed others as well with better results... 02 cosmetics are one I like, they have both water based and silicone, so does dinair.
I am NOT telling anyone to do anything to VOID their warranty... I just know that the only damage you could do with any kind of foundation makeup or even tanner liquid would be to clog the actual sprayer which is easily rectified by cleaning the pin (also easy to do) and you could always replace a pin if need be at minimal cost.
Anyway, to answer your question... I really have not been using it for very long, in fact I just received it a little over a week ago, but I DO ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!!!
I have however done a lot of research prior to purchasing which is how I ended up buying it on eBay, and how I came across all the videos on UTube, etc... I was totally ready to play with this when I got it and I have had EXCELLENT results!!! The fun just keeps coming!
As far as tips... I did look like a clown a little bit at first with the blush (why I ordered another shade), but it really is in just applying a VERY small, slight amount... then go outside... look at yourself in REAL light and decide if you need more (this is of course for daytime application)... At night, the sky is the limit!!!! Going out in the evening I have found the airbrushing looks especially flawless!!! Good lighting I suppose!
Anyway, hope this helps... Like I said, I am new too, just excited so far with the results. I will keep you and everyone else here posted as I learn new stuff.
thank you !!its seems to me very intresting but with a huge had ake!
am I right?

It was a bad thing to do. I had to take the gun apart to clean out the gunk! then I had to remember how it went back together, whew I did it! it does make me wonder if the dry can be added to water, and if that would work though. I might try one of my 4 diff. powders and play with the tap water,LOL. It really does need to be the consistency of water when it goes in the gun. As for the Luminess make-up, it is mineral based.
thanks Sheila! I just discovered the store is up, and seeing as i didn't join the club, my prices will be alot higher,geez. what is your skin tone, and what color blush did you get? I noticed with the blush they sent with the kit, one drop is all that is needed for both cheeks. I really want complete coverage with staying power, no rubbing off, or little of it, I may have to check out other sites. i have medium to tan skin, hazel eyes and very black native american hair, but i have never liked bright blush, eyeshadows, etc. boy i wish they had eyeshadows too!
thank you!Im still dont know if it will be good for me..
I using in the wet method.. but I dont know if the hairbrush will be good for me.. its kind of professional thing?
