Airbrush or traditional makeup?

Tory, on February 2, 2021 at 12:35 PM Posted in Hair and Makeup 0 30
Hey everyone! So I am currently looking at makeup artists and noticed that a lot of them offer a more expensive airbrushed makeup option. I was just curious if any of you had experience with airbrush makeup and if you believe it’s worth the cost, or which makeup method you preferred between airbrush and traditional? Thank you!

    Airbrush lasts longer and is hypoallergenic. I've tried traditional and hated it. Felt cakey on my face.

    I had airbrush makeup. I really liked it. It felt light on my face and lasted all day. I don’t believe I paid extra for it, but I probably would have.

    I had airbrush makeup for my brother's wedding and traditional makeup for my wedding. I honestly didn't really notice a difference.

    I did airbrush for my wedding and loved it! It felt so light and lasted all Fay even in the Florida heat.

    I was given Airbrush during my trial and I LOVED it. My favorite part was how it felt on my skin, super light unlike any other foundation i’ve tried. It looked super flawless too. I think it’s worth it personally!

    I've heard nothing but good things about airbrush, and plan on having that done for my wedding makeup! If you're still on the fence, I suggest booking a trial run to see how you like it.

    I had no clue if I would end up doing airbrush or traditional until my makeup trial. Having the trial was super important in making this decision, since the makeup artist tried out a bunch of things to see what worked best with my skin. It turned out that airbrush worked much better for my skin than traditional, because my skin is on the oily side. I would recommend using your makeup trial as a chance to figure out what you want!

    I’m the minority here, but I hate airbrush makeup on myself. It really depends what you’re going for. I do wear makeup, but hate foundation (both the way it feels and I do not enjoy full coverage). Airbrush makes your skin look perfect. For my personal preference, it’s a bit too perfect. I like something a bit more natural. It gives you very much Instagram filter look - which is great if that’s what you’re looking for!

    I used my engagement shoot as a trial for my makeup place and for the airbrush makeup option. I have to say, after 8 hours on a windy cliff, everything still looked perfect! As a reference, I have very oily skin, so I was impressed that it looked like it did earlier in the day. I highly recommend it so you don't have to worry about it throughout your big day!

    I did a trial with air brush and surprisingly liked it. I’m not a make up person, so had the idea that it would look “caked on”. But it was the opposite and my skin didn’t break out after.

    I've had both traditional and airbrush in the weddings I've been in. I really love airbrush! It feels light on your face and really lasts all day. For our engagement pictures, I got airbrush done and my MUA did amazing! We actually hired her for our wedding. So if you're worried about your makeup staying put all day, I would totally try airbrush.

    Yeah I was definitely going to do a trial makeup run, but just didn’t want to waste it on airbrush if anyone didn’t like it or think it was worth it for them. I think I’m definitely going to test out the airbrush though since everyone seems to love it!

    I just wanted to have an idea in mind when I went into the trial so they didn’t have to test out everything, but I definitely think the trial will help a lot! Thank you!
