Brown Eyeshadow and Electric Pink Lipstick

These are the pictures of the final look from the day I used the Belletto Airbrush system for the first time. I posted these separately because I wanted one post to focus on the way the airbrush looked on the skin and the other to show the eyeshadow and lipstick combination that I used as the final look.



Let me know your thoughts!

My First Attempt at Using Belletto Airbrush

I got my Belletto Airbrush machine about a week ago and I immediately started practicing. I am posting pictures that I took through the process. After the pictures, you can find my opinions on the airbrush system.

Step 1: Put on concealer (for my under eye bags)


Step 2: Contour!

Step 3: Blend in the contouring lines and go over skin with airbrush 

Note: Eyeshadow was done the old-fashioned way


My final opinion: 

PROs: 
  • I like that its easy to match the color of the airbrush to your skin since its so lightly sprayed on. Even if the color you use is not an exact match, I think it'd be pretty easy to hide.
  • The actual system is really light and easy to carry around
  • Easy to use for beginners

CONs: 
  • I noticed that the final look was a little dry. Next time, I'm going to try to maybe go over it with a light mist to add some moisture.

I think I can definitely find my away around the con with a little bit of extra time and practice.
