Controversial! In this video by makeup artist Steve Vayne he demonstrates why a circular motion may not be the best technique for airbrushing. This is a video we should all consider because many of us may airbrush for a real-world setting only whereas professional airbrush makeup artists need to consider how High Definition cameras will pick up any flaws in their coverage. Many makeup artists use a combination of techniques but you will notice that […]

Have you seen this video? If not, watch it! It’s a must see video in which Shelia McKenna uses the Kett Jett to flawlessly cover hyperpigmentation on one side of her model’s face. What’s interesting about this video is the technique Sheila uses – moving left to right/right to left with short bursts of airbrush makeup. She slowly covers the area of hyperpigmentation until it is basically undetectable. Airbrush Makeup Before and After: Watch this […]

Probably the biggest (or only) downside with airbrush makeup systems is the amount of cleaning required. But, once you have a good routine it isn’t much of a hassle at all and no more stress than keeping your brushes and sponges clean. There’s cleaning between makeups and cleaning after applying your makeup and this all takes time. No airbrush will work properly without being cleaned regularly and correctly–this is just the nature of airbrushing. However, […]

Remember to always spray the makeup onto your hand or paper to ensure the airbrush is working correctly and you have the right shade. Cheeks: starting […]
