    My question is for those with Asian skin! I've seen so many great before + after shots. with beautiful, blemish free and glowing skin. So, I was wondering whether you went with traditional or airbrush on the big day!

    It depends how good your skin is.

     Airbrush is just supposed to stay on longer and better. But there are a lot of liquid foundation nowadays that are just as good.

    I am Chinese, with fairly good skin, but I had 2 major stress pimples the day of my wedding. I had chosen to use airbrushing and my skin came out flawless. The airbrushing also photographed really well. Our wedding was on a super HOT august day in NYC, with a lovely thunderstorm in the morning, but my makeup stayed put all day, through heat and sweat and rain. Highly recommend!

    I agree with the previous post that it depends on how good your skin is to begin with. That said, I had my make-up trial done with airbrush and the results were fantastic. It really evened out my freckle/brown spots (light asian skin) and stayed put through sweating/dancing. I ended up using airbrush for my wedding and the bridal party and everyone loved it. The pictures came out flawless as well. If possible, I recommend getting a trial done to see if you like the results. Good luck!

    I also had airbrush done on my make up trial and I loved it.  I am Japanese and my skin is pretty good to begin with.  The airbrush made the make up completely flawless and ,like the other posts have already said, it makes your make up last all day and all night. It'll only cost you an additional $25, but it's so worth it.

    Hi,

     

    Next question, how much did you ladies spend on airbrush makeup  + hair, and  was that including trial?

    I live in a metropolitan area, so all wedding costs are pretty high. That said: Makeup ($125) + airbrush ($35) + hair ( $135) and this doesn't include consultation/trails ($80)   My makeup/hair artist is in the middle-high range in our city.

    Ditto wagamama. We live in NYC, so take these prices with a grain of salt.

    My airbrush makeup was $125 and hair was about $100.
