Mineral Air Review: Airbrush Makeup
• High quality
• Easy to apply
• Replaces several types of makeup
• Doesn't require extensive cleaning
• Good for sensitive skin
• Not available in stores
• Choosing proper shade
Mineral Air is an excellent entrant in the category of airbrushed makeup applicators. The makers have provided enough unique features to make this a product worth trying. It isn't available locally, and the cost is something that may dissuade some consumers. If you've tried other at-home airbrush systems and still think you can do better, Mineral Air should be on your short list.

Mineral Air Reviews
Airbrush makeup has a certain appeal to consumers because it is said to give a more flawless look than standard makeup. This is achieved not only through the delivery system, but the fact that it essentially combines primer, concealer, makeup, and hydrating serum which are all applied at the same time.
Where Mineral Air shines is in its excellent coverage and precision, which is achieved with a smaller spray pattern than other at-home airbrushes. The final look is not cakey or that of heavy makeup, but rather of flawless natural skin. It only takes seconds to apply and can last all day. The unit is rechargeable and compact, allowing you to take it along with you for any required touch-ups.
Another advantage for those who use Mineral Air is that it is ideal for those with sensitive skin, which is not a feature of some airbrush competitors (see ingredients below).
Perhaps the biggest difficultly, not only with Mineral Air but with any makeup purchased online, is that of choosing the proper color. Doing this locally at a retailer is typically the best way to achieve a perfect match, although the minds behind Mineral Air have accounted for this and include two blending shades to adjust to be lighter or darker. It’s an excellent solution to the problem of at-home matching. Those with very light or very dark skin sometimes have difficulty finding a proper color match.

Awful customer service!. Returned my unit almost a month ago with an authorized RA number and within the allotted time. Called 8 days ago to follow up since I had not seen refund and I was told that they would contact corporate for my refund. Called again today and not only they had no information about my money but was treated very poorly, the CS Rep told me that I had to wait as long as it may take to get my refund that the “might respond by the end of the month and will not let me speak or ask questions and was hung up on the first time I called because I was trying to make her understand that this was unacceptable. I will just call my CC company. Never had worse CS in my life. I don’t think I am being unreasonable. It’s been almost a month… I would think about it twice to order.
@AdranaOrendan comment that’s mean of there billing department. Happens alott with these infocommercial sales. They act like they want to send samples and then want to charge you for shipping and handling All they have to do is send a tiny sample to see if it’s the right product. I totally understand were you are getting at.
