Is Airbrush Makeup Really Worth It?

I have had airbrush makeup but did not use it at my recent wedding at Moon Palace. I would say that if your climate is going to be extremely humid-- airbrushing will be worth it. The humidity wasn't terrible this month in Cancun. My makeup was perfect all night. Had it done at 10:30 am, married at 4:00 and reception went until 10 pm. Jumped into the pool at 11 pm and my makeup was still perfect!! 

 

I am not a super sweater either. It all depends on you and what you're looking for. Some women like it because they will spray your neck and collar bone area to blend a lot. 

 

I use MAC products and so did my resort. They used a heavy primer and then use a setting spray at the end to make the makeup last. I would check with your resort to see what they use, check the average humidity and temperature and go from there. 

 

Wishing you luck and a beautiful wedding!!

I'm so jealous that your resort offers air brush! Mine doesn't and I just cannot stomach the vendor fee to bring someone in to do it - especially since I don't have a bridal party so it would just be

I hired a make up artist/hair team (really JUST FOR the airbrush makeup). I have no experience with it whatsoever, but I know it costs more because it is so wonderful (I hear). So instead of worrying

thanks! Our wedding is right in the middle of August so big humidity. I think I'll just bite the bullet and pay for the airbrush makeup. At least the resort offers it now so I don't have to pay $800 to bring someone else, plus their fee. We do get some perks with our TA and get the trial and makeup for free. I'm guessing this is the normal makeup but perhaps I can upgrade it for a smaller fee.

Since you can get it on site I think it may be worth it.

I can't, so I am going to be happy with regular makeup!

 

and truth be told, I didn't even know of airbrush makeup before this site!

 

I went from doing everything myself, to getting it done in the salon with a trial, ha!

I know what you mean. If they didn't have it I would go for regular makeup for sure or even just doing it myself. I know there's a whole science about concealer when you're taking pictures so that you don't end up with weird shadows but I'm not sure how to do that.

Hi ladies. I want to hear whether some of you have had airbrush makeup before, whether for your wedding or other events. Did you think it was worth the extra money? I know it's hard for makeup to stick with the heat and humidity of the tropics, but will airbrush really solve that problem? 

@@TinkerSofi I have seen many Brides, Airbrush when It is done with quality It remains during the whole day, also for some days after iF you keep it, It look fresh all the time, I always recommend my brides to do it, as they look and beautiful they are confident and that make them happy, when they are happy all looks like that, also the pictures :) 

 

Good luck!!

Ivan

that's great! That's what I wanted to know :). It turns out it might just be worth it, especially since I don't have to hire anyone from the outside and pay the outside vendor fee :)

That make sense, what some can do also is see If the make up artist has a studio or beauty salon and go out to do the name up and hair, depending on where your resort is and the beauty salon is It may be less expensive than bring them to your resort and pay the Outside Vendor Fee :) good luck!

I got airbrush at home for engagement pictures and it looked great. So I am splurging on Styling Trio for hair/airbrush (with the top artist, Adrian, it is $550 including a trial). DRC doesn't offer airbrush so I'm hoping to get around the stupid fee...nickel and dime for EVERYTHING!

Good to know! Sometimes hotels will make an exception for the fee when they dont offer that service. Mine does now so I have to go with then but I heard good things about their salon so I'm not so worried anymore. Also, since I speak the language it's easier to make myself understood as to what I want. I'm hoping that will help :)

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
