Leaders of the Airbrushed Makeup Market

March 24, 2009

latimeslogoThis past Sunday, over a million readers in Southern California and beyond read about Temptu at The Makeup Show LA produced by The Powder Group in the Los Angeles Times’ Image Section. And not only that, they saw two members of the Temptu team in airbrushing action. For those of you who haven’t met them in the flesh, Laura Reynolds and Levi Viera got the biggest spot on the page! The LA Times called “Temptu –leaders of the growing airbrushed makeup market that’s been driven by reality tv and the switch to hi definition technology.”

 

No better endorsement than from one of the country’s leading news sources!
