The term “airbrushed makeup” can be daunting to brides and members of the wedding party, but Taylor McKinney of Maple Grove’s Taylor Marie Beauty is here to clear up some common misconceptions.
- It’s cakey. “Something I hear really consistently from our brides is that [airbrushed makeup] feels very lightweight,” McKinney says.
- It isn’t for mature skin. “I think, especially for silicone-based products, it’s great for normal to dry skin,” she says. “[Those clients] want a more minimal application, so this is better for them.”
- It isn’t versatile. “We use the airbrush as the base to build off of in a lot of cases,” McKinney says. “Glowy look, matte, full glam, whatever the client wants.”
Airbrushed makeup foundation tends to be more error-proof than regular makeup, and the airbrushed application better lends itself to a photo-ready finish. “I like to describe it in a way that it almost pixelates to your skin, so you’re not having to manually blend it, and it can fit really flawlessly on the skin,” McKinney says.
