The makeup industry is ever evolving. From techniques used to the style of makeup, the last few years have seen a drastic change. A well-sculpted face with emphasis on contouring and highlighting has gained prominence, and smoky eyes have now become a go-to.
While brushes, beauty blenders and sponges are the ultimate tools to practice makeup, the last decade has seen a rise in the number of makeup artists taking up the airbrush technique. However, with every new technique come a range of truths, misconceptions, pros and cons. So, we thought of getting all our answers from celebrity makeup artist Ganga.
UK-based Ganga, who has worked with Bollywood's leading stars like Sonam Kapoor Ahuja, is an expert in airbrush foundation technique. Ahead, she spills the beans on her personal experience using airbrush makeup and debunks some misconceptions that you may have. Whether you're a bride-to-be or just a makeup enthusiast, scroll on to know more!
Misconception: Airbrush makeup looks heavy
Truth: Ganga has been in the industry for over a decade now, and her experience makes her a pro at various forms of makeup including the airbrush technique. Contrary to what is believed by a few, Ganga shares, "My personal application of airbrushing is designed to give the coverage you need but still look natural and replicate skin texture." Hence, its safe to say that when done right, airbrush makeup doesn't look heavy rather it lets your natural beauty shine through.
Misconception: The coverage isn’t great
Truth: Refuting the above statement Ganga feels, "Airbrush allows for buildable coverage. Bear in mind, I can cover tattoos with my airbrush machine, so you can definitely get good coverage whilst keeping the skin looking natural." The power lies in knowing the art well and being able to use it the correct way. When done right, the artist can tone it down or build up the foundation’s coverage.
Misconception: The colour range isn't great
Truth: With years of experience using the airbrush technique, she uses a range of foundation shades that covers all tones, from super pale to deep rich mahogany shades. What makes Ganga’s work unique is going the extra mile with her attention to personalization. Contradicting the misconception, Ganga matches the colour to every client's personal skin tone and even custom blends the foundation to match the colour of each client’s skin.
Beautiful and long-lasting, airbrush makeup is the ideal choice for your wedding day. To know more and book Ganga for your big day, get in touch with her now!
