Belloccio Professional Cosmetic Airbrush Makeup Foundation, Ivory

Matched my skin tone not greasy at all. Moisturized lightweight good coverage

Let me start by saying I had been using an Abrams that cost about $30 for 1/2 ounce. Which don’t get me wrong is an amazing product but I just couldn’t afford it. I was very nervous about buying something online that I knew nothing about but I took a chance. I bought the exact same “name” of colors that I was previously using knowing that they would not be exactly the same but at least it was a starting point. I have been using this product for I think three months now and when I run out, which won’t be anytime soon I will be buying it again. The wear is amazing it lasts all day. Just like my other product. The coverage is not total but that is what I like. It blends out my red spots just like my other product. The ONLY con I have is that it is a bit sticky when I’m done applying but I simply dust my face with a translucent powder and that is all. The colors are a slight bit darker than my other product like some others have said. But I just mix a little more of the light in with the dark and it’s perfect. I should also mention that I am a licensed cosmetologist/instructor so I have some experience with airbrush makeup and have been personally wearing airbrush makeup daily for about 4 years now.

This foundation works really well. The only “complaint” I have is that it’s thicker than other airbrush foundations are. That tends to make it harder on my airbrush machine, but I have makeup thinner so I just add that to the mix. Great coverage and color pigments. Will be buying more in the future.

The Luminess system is literally the only thing I use, aside from regular eye makeup and lip color, but it can get expensive. Decided to give this a shot because it's definitely more bang for your buck for the size. First, I'm a Medium Shade 3 with Luminess. I got Belloccio's Golden Tan shade, and even though it looks really dark through the bottle, it's a good match! Feels good on my skin, as expected of an airbrush foundation, but it's consistency when dropped into the "bowl" of the airbrush is a little off for me. It settles a lot AWAY from the needle, and when I try to mix it with a drop of highlighter (for that dewy look) by back-aerating (did I spell that right), it spatters a little. Totally not the same way Luminess behaves, but if you can get over that, it's a good alternative.

I have a luminess airbrush system. I started out using luminess foundation and really liked it except for the price. I then scoured Amazon looking for a cheaper option and tried photo finish. They're were things I didn't like about so now I tried belloccio...it's my favorite. It is thick, so I mix 1 drop of water with 1 drop of foundation. I must say I have very oily skin, so usually the foundations I don't like will slide off or separate on the oily parts of my face. Here's pros and cons of the 3 brands I've tried Luminess- pros are gives flawless, natural looking skin Cons- expensive, the littlest bit of water takes it off, my oily skin would separate it slightly around my nose. Photo finish- pros are inexpensive, water resistant Cons- looked dry on my face, could not withstand my oily skin at all. I had dots on my nose where the oil from my skin separated the foundation as well as a mess around my nose. It would settle into fine lines too Belloccio- pros inexpensive, doesn't separate with my oily skin!! It is thick so I mix 1 drop of foundation with 1 drop of water. Lasts all day and has a natural finish! Is water resistant. Alabaster is rather pink so I mix it with Buff which is more yellow to give me a fair-light neutral shade. I tried ivory and it is not for fair skin it's definitely more on the medium side.

Very thick material Could not use with my airbrush system

Highly recommend. This only needs a few drops and a little bit of water and comes out of my airbrush perfect

Update: I still love the foundation still buy it all the time. Except for this last (Aug 2019) when I received the bottle and shook it up it didn’t sound correct, I didn’t hear the ball. I thought it was because it was a full bottle, I did notice that it wasn’t wearing like it used to, but I shrugged it off. As the bottle got lower I shook it everyday as your suppose before putting in the machine. I still haven’t heard the ball, now I know for a fact there is no ball. So be careful if there isn’t ball tell someone. The foundation doesn’t apply correct or wear correct that ball is important. I’ve noticed my bottle is still 3 quarters full and it’s getting thicker. This my favorite, I received the Luminess Air machine as Christmas present last year from my husband & daughter. But the foundation was so expensive even in their little club. Not to mention it had gotten to a point of them pulling money for foundation and not sending foundation. The last straw was when they lost my order but gave me then run around. So I quit using them but still needed foundation. I tried 3 or 4 different ones. Then I seen that Belloccio’s had a pack of 4 for $30 (I think), I thought it was worth a try, at least I had some options to find my color vs. the others were about $30 for 1 that was the wrong color. I tried the Cappuccino and I haven’t look back ones. It has AMAZING coverage and is so lightweight on the skin. I never get break out. I would recommend this to everyone. Best foundation today!!
