Default airbrush makeup kits

My junior high school grand-daughter wants me to buy one for her birthday.
If you are familiar with the brand names and use of these kits, I would appreciate your input.
Thank you.

I have seen these kits on TV before. I don't wear make-up, don't like the feel of it on my face. Seems like a good idea instead of looking like one used a trowel to apply their make-up, just a thin layer of the stuff.

Also reminds me of "The Jetson's" watching Mrs. Jeston apply her make-up.

I have no idea, but sometimes it helps to browse Amazon and see the comments to get ideas about a product

It's best to give the money and let her buy her own. This way you won't be the one buying the wrong one.

I've never worn a lot of makeup and wear none at all now. I just use a daily moisturizer that's dye and fragrant free. I hated taking the time out to put it on. My 2nd and 3rd high school granddaughters play with it all the time and thankfully they say they don't go to bed with it on because the mascara makes the eyelashes go all "wonky", lol.

Does she know the brand name she is interested in? If you live near her, it would be fun for the two of you to go shopping together for her present. If it has to be ordered I too, would look at Amazon and check reviews. I wear make-up and have all of my adult life. When my daughters were teen-agers they used Clinique products from the department store. Nice line of cleaning products and nice make-up for young women. Their sales people are usually very helpful and knowledgeable about skin care and make-up. But, sorry, I'm not familiar with air-brushing.

I've seen some infomercials on TV. The concept is interesting, and a young girl would probably enjoy playing with it. I wear less makeup than I did when working, and keep it very quick and simple.

I think I have seen air brush makeup at Sephora stores. If you have one in your area you could go and see it in person. The people who work there usually are familiar with the products. Good hunting!!
