How to Use your SP 35 Airbrush Gun
Attach the airbrush gun to compressor hose using the metal screw on connector. Drop makeup into airbrush cup. For use with airbrush foundation, start with 4 to 6 drops of makeup. For blush, highlighter, and other colors, start with 3 to 4 drops.
Turn on compressor and bring airbrush gun up to 4 to 6 inches from face. Begin makeup application. Always start by releasing air first, pressing down on trigger to release air. Next, pull back on trigger to release makeup. Make sure the air is on at all times during application. Pull back on trigger for makeup control.
Apply airbrush makeup in small circular motions. Keep moving and watch carefully so as not to overspray. It is important to stop periodically and review your work. Move the airbrush gun 4 to 6" away from the face as necessary and adjust the dial pressure on the compressor as needed.
