| I grant that not all products work for everyone, or suit their preferences, but I personally have had a wonderful time with my system. I don't know if everyone is bothering to watch the dvd (okay, cause I usually don't either), but I did in this case. A lot of complaints I see seem to be direct results of not following instructions. The dry skin? Yes, me too, until I remembered that the make up is waterbased, so my skin sucked all the water from the make up and left my skin dry. When I remembered to add a moisturizer first, that problem went away. I also forget to hold the stylus far enough away at times. that will cake it on, and leave a greasy area. You have to patiently hold it away from your skin and brush the layers on. I swear I never got so many positive comments on my make up until I started wearing it. My friend got me hooked on it, and I think it helped that she showed me how to use it. I never had to deal with customer service, so I can only hope they improve that, so people aren't turned off by them. |

| I have had my unit for 4 months with no problems. If you have a blemish and use a concealer as shown in their instructional DVD then coverage is not a problem. As fair as the "pump" not being very good which I assume is meant to be the the airbrush stylus, you HAVE to clean it after every use. It is a precision instrument and if you don't take care of it it will not preform. That is status quo for any airbrush no mater what the use. I am sorry for those who have had a negative experience that is a bummer, but this type of makeup is probably not the best choice for their skin. |

| I accept responsibility for not doing my homework and reading the fine print. First of all it takes way more than 3-4 drops and even with 8 there's no coverage. I'm not sure what they are using on the infomerical to cover blemishes (which I don't have", but it doesn't cover anything, Also I wasn't aware that you were automatically enrolled in a club where they send you $60.00 worth the foundation automatically, thank goodness I finally found a phone number and cancelled it after receiving it. I talked to the professional makeup girls at work and thanks to them, we can make this work with different makeup, but I wouldn't buy this again or recommend it to anyone. Customer service is also very rude!!!!!!! |

| I think the compressor is okay, but the warranty is lacking. I wonder what Dinair and Iwata are like. I am beyond irritated that this system is sold on ebay (I think that the company is the one selling it there for a lot less than they sell it for on their infomercial and website.) I think I might have gotten taken. I am not at all impressed with the makeup. It takes way more than four or five drops, and it is thick. Also, my skin is much dryer because of the mineral makeup. I think this system is going back and I am going to try one of the other systems as their reviews are much more favorable. |

| I really really wanted to love this product. I can't. I tried it for the full period of time and am packing it up for return. The pump isn't very good, the coverage...wait- there's coverage?
Also, the return process is lengthy and annoying. Basically, the return paperwork reads as if they are looking for a reason to deny your return.
Bummer. |
