Yes. I absolutely love mine. Grated, it was previously used as a painter's airbrush equipment before it was given to me but all I had to do was buy another gun better suited for makeup. I use GlamAir foundation and I absolutely love it. I'm still working on eyeshadow. It's a little harder to master verses foundation, blush, highlight, etc.

I don't have any experience with the ones meant just for beauty makeup, but for me I think its almost easier to buy an airbrush on it's own and the compressor separately. They don't always look sleek or glamorous but they do the same thing and I think its a lot more versatile than some of the beauty models I've seen where you can only use pre-loaded cartridges. With some other models and with the ones that are sort of all purpose/painting ones, you can mix your own colors and use your own formulas which I definitely prefer. I kind of feel like unless you use it A LOT though it can be a waste of money. It can be pretty hard to do airbrushed makeup on yourself as well lol. So it may not be a super good investment if you don't use it a good bit. I don't get a whole lot of use out of mine currently but I feel like in the long run I get more out of it anyway because I can use mine for painting and body painting as well as beauty makeup.
