Here at Style Salute, we are always on the hunt for efficient beauty tools. From BB Creams, to science based skincare, we love it all. One in particular that we recently tried is a glorious new makeup device that promises an “airbrushed” finish. TEMPTU Air is portable, time-saving, lightweight and rechargeable airbrush makeup device. Designed to address multiple beauty needs at once, we love the TEMPTU Air because it’s lightweight, easy-to-use, and creates a luminous complexion in minutes.
Used with the brand’s own range of foundations, highlighters, blushes and bronzers, the ‘air’ tool uses a precise and hygienic method to give you a beautifully blended, contoured look. “Patented technology combined with our iconic formula provides professional, flawless airbrush results without having to master complicated techniques,” says Samantha Mandor, TEMPTU Chief Creative Officer and Co-Owner. With three speeds that allow personal customization, you can focus on specific areas and erase blemishes. Our favorite thing about the Temptu Air? The fact that it charges via a micro-USB port and has a battery that lasts over three weeks per charge. You know what that means: no cords in your book bag or briefcase. Now, that’s a game changer.

The first thing that comes to every girls mind when she knows she has a date night on the calendar is a feeling of great enthusiasm and eagerness —namely the idea that we could be meeting the man of our dreams, someone you might really like.
While the sheer idea of this is incredibly exciting—it can also be seriously stress-inducing. Before a date, there are a million things that come to our mind, one of the most stressful things leading up to a first date is finding what to wear.
