Another for JN - I'm am ridiculously anal with my make up and hate how other people do it. She TOTALLY blew me away - she is truly an artist. She gets my vote.

What exactly is the difference between airbrushing/regular application. Or what are the benifts?

I e-mailed Denise about this and this is what she wrote.

There are several types of airbrush makeup. One is waterproof, and when they say waterproof, they mean it's on for 3 days without taking it off. The waterproof makeup is alcohol based - and as such, can be very drying. It even feel kind of tight after application. This would not normally be used for brides.

The other makeup is water-based. This is what is mostly used for bridal application. It is very sheer and lightweight, if sprayed on properly. There is a saying about airbrush makeup - 'it's perfect for perfect skin', meaning, if you have uneven skintone you're not going to get the color correction you would with hand concealer and foundation.

It's a popular trend, and as a businesswoman I will certainly offer it to my clients. On a personal side, I know what I can do by hand, and it's beautiful, flawless and long-lasting.

Also, I just found out from her that she is going to be a vendor on here and her link from LIW should be up soon.
