Therefore, we are pleased to introduce Presets, AirBrush’s latest tool. AirBrush Presets, combines existing features like Smooth, Enhance, Filters, Makeup etc into a one-touch application. There are four style categories with presets nested under each. Keep reading to get an up-close look at our latest drop in the easy photo editor.

Smooth

The seven presets that exist under the Smooth category are all designed to enhance facial features without any application of makeup. This means the removal of blemishes, the whitening of teeth, smoothed skin and the minimization of facial lines and hyperpigmentation. Though all the Smooth AirBrush Presets give a flawless finish, you can find several that stand out. There’s Suave that offers a sunkissed look or Elegant that serves a desaturated and smoothing blur over your photos. Alternatively, Matte leaves some character on the skin, while Afterglow makes you look lit from within.

Natural

The Natural category has seven presets as well, and is a step up from Smooth. The use of makeup in these AirBrush Presets escalates as you move through options Pure to Glam. For this, the Stylized and Aesthetic Preset styles, you have the option to customise three features in the Preset. They are the Smoothing, Makeup and Sculpting or Filter features. Use the toggle slide bar to reduce or increase any one feature for a seamless result.

Stylized 

Next, there is a definite jump in levels when it comes to the Stylized Style category. There are only two AirBrush Presets nested here and they pack a glam punch. Firstly, there’s Savage which focuses on lashes and a natural lip. Secondly, there’s Coquette which gives you lashes and a glossy, nude lip. Remember, that you can always adjust the strength of the makeup and other features to suit your tastes.

Lastly, there is the Aesthetic style, which holds the Gloss and Luster Presets. Gloss adds a defined eyeliner, rouged lips and a saturation Filter. The last AirBrush Preset, Luster, is a showstopper, with a purple shimmer on the eyes, a pinky nude lip combined with light flares and a flattering lilac color Filter.
