Today I’m drawing inspiration from all the amazi Today I’m drawing inspiration from all the amazing bold, bright and colorful art installations around @shopthesonocollection and letting them guide my Spring shopping picks!

Spring 2023 is FILLED with bold, bright and colorful pieces so it wasn’t hard, the only hard part was not taking home every single thing I tried on.

My picks at The Sono Collection for the boldest, brightest, most colorful Spring items are definitely H&M, Zara and Bloomingdales! Each of them offer great items at all price points that will get your wardrobe ready for Spring (and even Summer)!

Next time you’re visiting The Sono Collection take a walk around to get inspired before you start shopping, you won’t be disappointed!

Easy Flawless Skin Airbrush Makeup Tutorial

Basic Easy Airbrush Makeup Tutorial with Luminess Air Airbrush Essentials Living After Midnite Beauty Jackie Giardina

I got such great feedback on my first Airbrush Makeup post that I figured I would follow it up with a step-by-step easy airbrush makeup tutorial! If you haven’t read My Beginner’s Guide to Airbrush Makeup I would head over and read that first to get yourself familiar with your Luminess Air System and learn a few tips and tricks for mastering airbrush makeup application first!

Easy Flawless Skin Airbrush Makeup Tutorial

Today I wanted to show you how I use Luminess Air Airbrush Essentials to create a flawless complexion! Foundation is great, but if you correct your imperfections before applying foundation you won’t have to use as much, and I don’t know any girl who wouldn’t like to use less foundation.

Basic Easy Airbrush Makeup Tutorial with Luminess Air Airbrush Essentials Living After Midnite Beauty Jackie Giardina

My 3 Luminess Air Airbrush Essentials are Porcelain, Eraser and X-Out!

First I apply Porcelain Primer to my entire face to help my foundation last longer and apply smoother. Next I apply Luminess’ Eraser to help neutralize the redness around my nose, the dark pigmentation from the sun on my cheeks and the pimples on my chin. Finally I applied X-Out under my eyes to conceal my dark circles and illuminate the eye area. I couldn’t get as close to my lash line as I wanted so I lightly applied X-Out with my fingers in that area. After finishing these steps it was time for foundation, bronzer, blush and highlight!

woman showing Skin Airbrush Makeup Tutorial

As you can see from the photos above of me without any makeup on I don’t have perfect skin!

I have large pores and redness on my nose, sun spots under my eyes and a few acne scars on my chin, but with the correct products I can make my skin flawless (and you can too)! Since my skin was looked like it was glowing after applying these products I finished this look by filling in my brows and adding a few swipes of mascara and a bold red lipstick!So have I convinced you to start using Airbrush makeup? I’m going to be doing a few more airbrush makeup posts throughout the next few months so if you have any questions or concerns leave me a comment, I’d love to help!
