Abstract: A portable aerosol airbrush type gun apparatus is used for applying liquid cosmetics. A pressurized container has a liquid cosmetic compound therein under pressure. An airbrush type nozzle is attached to the container and operatively connected thereinto and has a flow restrictor and a needle therein. A valve is mounted to the container adjacent the nozzle for releasing the pressurized liquid in the pressurized container into the nozzle responsive to the actuation of the valve. The valve has a hinged finger lever mounted for actuating the valve with an operator's finger. A handle is hinged to the container nozzle housing and has a first storage position adjacent the pressurized container and a second operating position for supporting the operator's hand so that facial makeup and cosmetics can be applied with an airbrush type nozzle in a pressurized storage aerosol container.
