A perfect foundation is the best basis for a flawless complexion. So it's absolutely vital that the foundation you choose meets your demands. When you're looking for a serious, flawless 'WOW' complexion for your big day – Airbase Make-Up's Silicone based Foundation is the perfect solution.

Why airbrushing? 

When you spray using an airbrush it atomises the product making the particles of make-up tiny. This is why airbrush make-up is used in HD TV and film. The particles in the make-up become much smaller than when it is conventionally applied and therefore less visible. HD TV picks up absolutely every imperfection! There are also hygiene benefits to spraying. When we use a conventional brush or our fingers, there is potential to spread bacteria and germs across the face. By spraying Airbase make-up onto the face we can avoid this.
 
 

What about its staying power?
The silicone in the make-up makes Airbase incredibly long lasting and waterproof (and tear proof!). As silicone is heat resistant you don't get shine through as you can with water or oil based make-ups, and it stands up to the intense heat of studio lighting and in bright sunshine... Airbase really does last all day.

 

You can build upon each layer to create the perfect coverage . Silicone foundation really does stand the test of time! It is this that helps give Airbase Make-Up its unrivalled durability. That means that your Airbase Make-Up application lasts all-day, making Airbase perfect for bridal beauty.

 

Luxurious feel and lightweight on the skin

Airbase Foundation does not clog pores and allows skin to breathe! Last but not least, Airbase Silicone Foundation feels luxurious on the skin and is incredibly lightweight.

Why do you apply Airbase foundation with an Airbrush Gun?

For the ultimate look, application though the airbrush gives an extremely fine application that allows coverage to be achieved by building several fine layers giving a natural look and even coverage - and a fantastic finish.


What is it made from?

Airbase combines a unique mix of ingredients with silicone at the heart of it's formulation. Feeling beautiful and luxurious on the skin, the silicone chosen does not clog your pores, allowing your skin to breathe. It is this that helps give Airbase Make-Up unrivalled durability.

 

Silicone: Silicone is heat-resistant, non-stick and pliable. That means that your Airbase Make-Up application lasts all day and can be 'moved' for a few minutes unlike water based foundations. Any errors are therefore easy to correct after application.

 

Vitamins A and E: Airbase contains Vitamin A, an ingredient that is proven to improve elasticity of the skin and therefore reduce fine lines. It also contains Vitamin E. This is an anti-oxidant that moisturises and repairs, helping to deactivate the free radicals that age the skin.
