Services Provided By 217Beauty:
- HD Airbrush Makeup: In airbrush makeup, the substance are sprayed on the skin using an airbrush that has three parts; a powered compressor that creates an even airflow, a medical hose through which the airflow is projected and controlled and a metal trigger action gun. Airbrush Makeup is the new trend as it can be suited to any type of makeup application by the adjusting the pressure of the flow. Liz Gizelle also recommends it for all brides because:
- Airbrush makeup does clog the pores, but it allows the skin to breathe.
- It is very light and feels natural
- As there is not direct contact between a brush or any other device and the skin, this method is more hygienic and safe.

One of the most important products that are used while doing traditional makeup is the foundation. 217Beauty test all their foundation types to see whether they can be applied on various skin types and what kind of effects can be achieved, how long they last and how heavy do they feel on the skin, and also whether they photograph well under brightly lighted conditions.
