BelloccioProfessional Cosmetic Makeup Airbrush with 4 Fair Shades of Foundation

I purchased this system after doing quite a bit of research about airbrush makeup. I wanted to find a foundation that would cover redness and not rub off onto my clothes. I have very dry, clear, unblemished skin with some redness around my nose that needed light coverage. Regular foundation was okay, but I was getting tired of constantly having to clean my brushes and getting makeup on my clothes. I was always worried about blending and sometimes I wasn't doing that great of an application job. I was all set to purchase another well known airbrush brand, but their website was broken (they wanted me to call my order in) and I knew I could rely on Amazon.I am very happy with the system. It took a couple tries to get my correct color figured out - I mix roughly equal parts of two colors of foundation. I use the foundation and blush and sometimes the shimmer. I did find that the moisturizer/primer isn't quite enough, I have to pre-moisturize my skin with squalane and a bit of jojoba oil before applying the makeup. Once you get the hang of it, it is quick and easy. I use 8 drops of foundation with 3 drops of moisturizer. For blush I use 4 drops of the Charming Lily color that came with my kit. I wish it was a more instense pink. It's a very soft, natural color and looks nice. The radiant bronze shimmer is far too dark for me and I sometimes use it as an eyeshadow, but usually it gets ignored. The champagne shimmer is darker than you'd think, but makes a nice highlighter or glimmer mixed with blush. In general, I don't use the shimmers. After foundation and blush, I apply lip and eyemakeup and a dusting of translucent powder on my T-zone. Finally, I follow with a makeup setting spray which I think makes a HUGE difference in the wear time of this foundation.Initially, I was excited to use airbrush for everything. Eyeshadow, eyeliner, lips. After using it for awhile, I think that's more trouble than it's worth to learn the techniques and run different colors through the brush. I am doing those things the regular way and probably will not switch to airbrush.It takes about 7 - 10 minutes for me to apply the foundation and clean the brush. I run a bit of cleaner through it, followed by distilled water. Occasionally I take the airbrush apart for a more thorough cleaning.This system is not for you if you have no mechanical inclination. You need to be able to adjust, clean and troubleshoot your airbrush. It's not hard at all, but could be daunting for folks who don't want to mess with stuff. If you're willing to spend some time with it, I think you'll be happy. Look around at some youTube videos - there are many.

The actual product may be great, but my experience with the seller was EXTREMELY BAD. I also learned that Fullfilled by Amazon apparently means nothing too, which was news to me after being a prime user for the last 5 years and considering my purchases protected by that.Normally I expect (promised?) that orders made on an 'Eligible for Prime' item are 2-day expedited via UPS. That has been my experience for upwards of a hundred orders the last 5 years, without any issues. TCP decided to save a buck and ship via USPS instead and the item never showed up, unfortunately the norm for postal service in my area.As this was an Xmas purchase I tracked the package after a week and had my first unwelcome surprise, there is almost zero tracking capability via USPS. I contacted the seller via email to alert them to my problem, but received no response. I then called them directly and was informed that it was my problem and that I should visit my local post office and see if the package might be there. I contacted Amazon at that point expecting my money to be refunded so that I could purchase the item from someone else.The Amazon rep conferenced myself and the sellers 'customer service', whom then grudgingly agreed that they would initiate an investigation and contact me the next AM. Timing was critical here as Xmas was looming. No call back from TCP of course and when I got back it touch with their customer service he had done nothing and again told me it was my problem and I would need to chase it down with the Post Office.After hours of busy calls (Xmas time, right?) I did get a representative of the Post Office, unfortunately only to learn it was another office I needed. After a full day of calling I did finally get a PO rep whom kindly took my details and promised that a superior would review the case with my carrier and call me back. Surprisingly they in fact did so the next AM, confirming that the package was not being held by them and had been delivered according to the carrier.I contacted the seller and related the results, which he then said he couldn't accept since he had not done it himself ??!! Back to Amazon to try and get some final resolution but after another hour long phone conference with the seller I was told that Amazon could not refund my money and I was dependent on the seller to make things right.TCP Global customer rep said he would conduct an investigaton (2nd time they said that of course) and would get back to me within a month or two with their decision. I will be calling my CC company today to challenge the charge and get my money back.What I learned from all of this is that any 'protection' I thought 'fullfilled by Amazon' meant, was an illusion. I also found out that most of the items I have been buying on Amazon are available cheaper on E-Bay whom now offer free shipping on most items without the added expense of a Prime membership with Amazon. I still ddn't feel as safe in my purchases there, but everything arrived on time without issue, and apparently the supposed Amazon protection is a lie anyway.Final upshot of all of this is I did the remainder of my Xmas shopping on E-bay and saved some bucks. I will NOT be renewing my Amazon Prime membership as apparenlty it is worthless beyond free shipping which I get from E-bay for nothing. Just one guy of course, but I've probably spent thousands on Amazon the past 5 years prior to this experience.

It makes my skin look so much better!

Very good quality, product was on time , I will order again this products

I got this in November, but hadn't taken the time to actually unpack it and use it till the other day. I like this and am pleased with it. The fact that you can blend the colors to match your own skintone is awesome. The lightest color is super white and I intend to tell my best friend about it because we have never found makeup she can use because she is so pale. She might actually be able to use this. As for me I like it and the second lightest color works for me.Pros:Able to blend to get your matching colorFeels like you are wearing nothingIt does cover redness and acne if you suffer from those (that being said you have to do several light coats and let it set between them)It washes off super easyThe machine is easy to take apart, clean and then put back togetherThe kit comes with a nice collection of colors ( 4 light foundations, 3 blushes, 1 primer moisturizer and 1 bronzer)Cons:The machine is a little noisy. This may or may not be a deal breaker for some... to me it is normal, small power plants for little items always seem to make noise.Because it comes off so easily (which is great for keeping your face clean) I do wonder how it will hold up to rain, swimming or sweating, so I will probably not use it in summer. I don't know for sure since I haven't tried it in any of these conditions if it will run off. I intend to try and will also try pairing it with a finishing powder or mineral veil to see if it holds up. If it does I will come back and update this review.There is a learning curve. My first attempt I made a face at and then wiped off. As people have said in other reviews, go lightly and do several passes rather than focus it in one area. It will take longer to apply, but you will avoid patching looking areas or runs.Neutral:I didn't see a time advantage like others posted, but I haven't used it long enough. Perhaps as I get more practice in with it I will become faster. At this point it takes as much time as doing my regular mineral makeup to apply.Make sure you use the primer/moisturizer.
