Airbrush FAQ
1. What is Airbrush Makeup? Airbrushing is a patented makeup application technique that utilizes compressed air through an “airbrush” with drops of color (i.e.: foundation, blush, etc.) to spray on a fine mist of makeup. Most clients find the application technique rather soothing and since traditional brushes are not used during this technique you never have to worry about sanitation.
2. How does it feel? Most clients say they feel as if they aren’t even wearing makeup because airbrush makeup is exceptionally lightweight.
3. What are the benefits of airbrush makeup? Airbrush makeup provides flawless coverage by minimizing skin imperfections while giving the skin a beautifully natural finished looking result. Airbrush makeup is water resistant and will last for up to twelve hours or more.
4. Does it cover tattoos, scars, etc.? Yes with a proprietary, patented “paramedical” airbrush makeup covers all skin imperfections including tattoos, scars, vitiligo, stretch marks, post-op surgery patients can be concealed.
5. Is Airbrush Makeup right for everyone?” Airbrush makeup is suitable for women of all ages and every skin condition. The makeup is hypoallergenic and fragrance free. In fact, “Airbrush Makeup” is the only makeup that is suitable for the new “high definition,” standard in television.
6. What is an airbrush? An airbrush is a small pen-shaped tool that sprays fluids in a precise, controlled manner.
7. How does an airbrush work? Pressurized air (from a compressor, pressurized gas tank or propellant can) is forced through the airbrush, causing a vacuum that draws the paint into a stream of air. The air and paint are thoroughly mixed or atomized and then sprayed out.
8. How do you select an airbrush? The best airbrush for you is dependent upon your choice of application (fine art, mural painting, illustration, hobbies and crafts, fingernails and makeup, ceramics and sculpture, etc.) and/or your budget. Most artists today use single or dual action internal-mix airbrushes because they produce the finest sprays. All airbrushes can be used for all applications, but some are more suited to specific applications than others. For example, if you work a large area and need a large paint reservoir, then an airbrush that is adaptable to a jar is necessary. On the other hand, if you work on objects where minimal amounts of paint are used, e.g., photo retouching, then a slotted gravity feed airbrush is the best choice. The various types of airbrushes--side feed, gravity feed, and bottom feed--are available from all manufacturers in student to professional grades with corresponding prices.
9. What types of paints can be sprayed through an airbrush? Almost all paints can be airbrushed. However, it is very important to reduce or thin paints to a viscosity no thicker than milk so that they are fluid enough to be sprayed. For example, artist acrylic colors are thinned with water and oil paints are thinned with oil mediums before spraying.
When the normal person hears the term airbrush, they imagine a car being painted or a photo being retouched to give him or her a briter smile, clear smooth skin, and other blemishes removed. What would you do if these touchups could be made on your own face instead of on a picture? It can with the next generation of home beauty products, airbrushing is not only for the models and actors it has become a feasible item for any woman's home.
