Airbrush makeup
Ousley then turned to makeup work, created a makeup airbrush, and developed a system of water-based spray-on makeup for use in the fashion and entertainment industries. The spray makeup tools and techniques she developed include "...the use of a small airbrush, liquid cosmetics and stencils to create everything from a professional woman's daily makeup to something a little flashier - think leopard print hair and fantasy makeup that includes sparkles." Ousley airbrushed "lingerie" on Playboy models for Hugh Hefner's 1999 New Year's Eve party and spray-painted the go-go girls in the Austin Powers movies.
Ousley is a principal and partner in Dinair, a Hollywood-based company that retails the spray makeup machines and supplies to users.
