What sets Youngblood Cosmetics apart from other mineral lines?
Youngblood is the premier choice for high-quality mineral cosmetics. An exclusive milling process creates luxurious formulations that are free of talc, oil, parabens and fragrance.
Clients have continuously claimed that
Natural Mineral Foundation performs better than other brands, and is available in a range of realistic, natural-looking shades. It feels incredibly silky and lightweight; is non-comedogenic (won't block pores); and allows the skin to breathe.
Unlike other mineral products, Youngblood isn't glittery. Skin radiates a natural, healthy glow, resulting in a younger-looking, flawless complexion.
What are the main differences between loose, pressed and liquid foundations?
Natural Mineral Foundation offers maximum coverage and camouflaging capabilities with a subtly radiant finish.
Pressed Mineral Foundation provides a soft-matte finish and is recommended for those with oily or combination skin. It is ideal for touching up shiny breakthrough.
Liquid Mineral Foundation is best suited for normal to dry skin types. It contains marine extracts to keep skin hydrated.
Mineral Radiance Moisture Tint is a sheer, lightweight alternative to liquid foundation.
Youngblood's loose foundation can also be "liquefied" by mixing with facial moisturiser,
Mineral Primer, sunscreen or body lotion.
Do Youngblood foundations have an SPF rating?
The number one ingredient in Youngblood's
Natural Mineral Foundation is Titanium Dioxide, a natural sun protectant that physically "blocks" UVB (burning) and many UVA (aging) rays. Titanium Dioxide tends to be better tolerated by most skin types because chemical filters used in chemical sunscreens can irritate many people.
Since protective levels depend on application and will vary i.e. lighter coverage offers less protection than heavier application, Youngblood doesn't assign a Sun Protection Factor to its products. However, in laboratory measurements, the loose and liquid foundations are comparable to a minimum of SPF 15.
Many mineral companies claiming SPF 15 or higher in their products use Zinc Oxide as an active ingredient. Most consumers are unaware that Zinc Oxide is a drying agent. Youngblood doesn't formulate with Zinc Oxide to keep products hydrating.
Which foundation is best for a client with dry, red skin (Rosacea)?
Natural Mineral Foundation disguises rosacea without drying out skin.
Liquid Mineral Foundation is also a good option because of its hydrating properties. For added coverage, mix loose and liquid foundations together, or dust loose powder over liquid.
What is the difference between Mineral Rice Powder and Hi-Definition Hydrating Mineral Perfecting Powder?
Mineral Rice Setting Powder is best suited for skin needing long-lasting shine control. The non-drying formula contains rice and corn starch to mattify and help minimise pores. The unique blend can be mixed with
Natural Mineral Foundation to diminish coverage level or keep a shade colour-true.
Hi-Definition Powder keeps makeup looking fresh by balancing skin. It locks in moisture whilst absorbing oil. The silky-smooth texture expertly blurs imperfections for an airbrushed finish. Each can be used before or after makeup application.
How is loose mineral makeup different from pressed mineral makeup?
The loose pigments deliver more colour payoff and offer the versatility of being used wet or dry. Available in an exclusive sifter component, they are blendable to create custom shades or for use during advanced makeup techniques. The pressed formulas are conveniently packaged and work well for quick touch-ups.
Are our Lipsticks colour-stay?
Whilst our
Lipstick formula is not colour-stay, it does wear for hours. Currently, colour-stay ingredients have not met Youngblood's formulary requirements.
How are Lipshine and Lipgloss different?
Lipshine is formulated to be thicker for extra moisturising benefits. It offers just a hint of colour and a mirror-like finish.
Lipgloss is a thinner formula containing more pigment and shimmer with softer shine. Both leave lips with a non-sticky finish.
Does Youngblood test products on animals?
No. We do not test any of our products on animals. Many of our formulations are made with plant and vegetable-derived ingredients including a few vegan options.
Additionally, Youngblood supports the environment as most of the packaging is made from recyclable materials and our cartons are produced on
Forest Stewardship Council certified stock with soy ink.
