Tips: What to Look For in an Airbrush Makeup Kit

An article by Michelle

Everyone has different needs when it comes to makeup. And, when it comes to airbrush makeup kits there is a huge variation in what you get. Price isn’t the only indicator of quality and I’d definitely recommend visiting a salon, Sephora or a friend’s house to get some hands-on experience with airbrush makeup before deciding which kit you want. Don’t forget to head on over to our airbrush makeup review section too!

Look for one which includes at least 4 shades of foundation. More complete kits also include blush and highlighter.
Look for a compressor that has variable PSI. Low PSI is essential for beginners and also for more delicate areas and fine work.
Look for a versatile airbrush gun which can be used for fine work as well as covering medium and large areas. Dual action airbrushes are preferable.
An airbrush makeup kit MUST come with a cleaning kit!!
We also prefer those kits which come with a free travel bag. Not all of them do and it’s not really an essential item but one which should come free with any kit.
An instructional DVD. Well – you have this website… but every makeup kit is different and an instructional DVD will give you the confidence to use your airbrush makeup kit like a pro.
