Airbrush Makeup Myths

Myth#1: Airbrush Makeup will streak or run if it gets wet.

Not if the airbrush makeup is silicone-based. In contrast to water-based makeup, which most kinds of traditional liquid makeup and some kinds of airbrush makeup are water-based, silicone makeup does not run or streak. However, airbrush makeup MUST be dried completely. I run air on my client's face for five minutes after initial application to make sure the airbrush foundation is COMPLETELY dry. Once set, airbrush makeup doesn't come off until you take it off.

Myth #2 Brides should use traditional makeup because it is easier to touch up throughout the day.

It's true that you can touch up traditional  makeup with a sponge or foundation brush (although make sure you've used a microfine setting powder instead of pressed powder to set it, or it may look cakey). Airbrush makeup cannot be touched up because, once set, it is immovable on your face (sweat, tears, other environmental factors will not cause it to shift on your face). So, basically, you DON'T NEED touch ups with airbrush makeup.
