Temptu Launches At Home AIRbrush Makeup System

Yes, you read correctly: you will be able to airbrush yourself in the privacy of your own home. (Or anywhere else, for that matter!)
If you've never heard of Temptu, that's ok because you've definitely seen their work. (Remember the full bodied blue look worn by actress Rebecca Romijn in the X Men movies? Yeah, that's Temptu's Dura makeup!)
Used primarily by professional makeup artists for film, television and fashion, the brand is now spreading the airbrush love to everyone .
I recently met with Ava Scanlan, Director of Public Relations & West Coast Operations, who showed me how it works.
Known as the Temptu AIRbrush Makeup System and AIR pod makeup, it's actually a makeup system designed for at-home and everyday use. I admit that I was slightly skeptical about the whole thing because I definitely don't want to walk around on a daily basis looking like I'm wearing tons of makeup. But the great thing about it is that you can put on as little (or as much) as you want! Just pop an AIR pod into the AIRbrush, plug in the Air Compressor and get to spraying. There is an adjustable knob on the Air Compressor so you can control how much (or little) makeup that you apply. Genius, I tell you!
And if you want a tutorial of your own, Sephora beauty experts will be offering in-store AIRbrush product training for consumers. These products will be available on August 1, 2009 online at sephora.com and in 100 Sephora stores nationwide on September 15, 2009.
