YOUNGBLOOD Natural Loose Mineral Foundation – 0.35 Oz, Color Honey

Youngblood Mineral Powder Foundation – Go to for 20 years
I was a little skeptical about ordering YB off Amazon, and the price was about half of the usual “retail” price, but I received a genuine/authentic product. I’ve used YB Mineral Powder Foundation for 20ish years and nothing compares to it.If you’ve never tried Youngblood, you should give it a try. I started using it in my 20’s, it’s light but provides full coverage when applied correctly without a cakey finish. Now that I’m 40, I’m noticing small lines and that “youthful radiance” is fading from around my eyes. I have some redness some days and my skin can get oily. My facial skin is sensitive, so there are plenty of products that I won’t/can’t use, but YB has been consistently gentle and I’ve never had a problem with sensitivity.By now I should know more about my skin tone/undertone, but I don’t. In the winter, color wise, I’m more fair-toned, and in the summer I can get to a medium/light medium tone. I’ve always purchased this powder in “Honey” and sometimes mixed with a lighter MAC powder (N4) , however if I find this product in a lighter shade that doesn’t look orange, I will update this review 😉If I had to compare this to another brand, it would be MAC pressed powder, as they no longer sell the loose power. Both the finish and price point are comparable, but YB still outperforms IMO.There is much to be gained in learning how to apply this mineral powder, and if you can swing it, I strongly recommend the full size YB Kabuki brush (there are two, a smaller version of the full size stubby Kabuki brush and the full size, both are “stubby” but the smaller one is less full/dense) the full size brush is typically $40 (retail) but you may be able to find a better deal at a cosmetology store or possibly here. There are tons of tutorials videos out there, so I won’t drag this out further with application instructions.Bottom line: If you’re looking for a salon quality, medium -full coverage foundation for all skin types, this is your jam. Bonus points for not settling in lines/wrinkles/pores, all day wear, and a beautiful, easy to apply, non-cakey finish. This is absolutely a product I will reach for again and again as it has consistently out-performed every other loose power foundation I’ve tried (a lot.)

Absolutely amazing!!
To start I have been a regular liquid foundation user. But as I am pushing 30 I realize I should be using things that will benefit my skin. I normally have good skin however I noticed with my regular liquid foundation it was starting to clog my pores and therefore I have been getting zits everywhere. Well I decided to give up liquid foundation all together and find myself a nice mineral foundation that would be beneficial to my skin. I heard of Youngblood and thought of giving them a try but there weren’t many reviews on youtube so I ventured onto Bare minerals/escentuals which ended up being pure garbage! I am not oily skin by any means and after about 3-4 hours I was a grease ball not to mention it broke me out, imagine that their advertisements say its so pure you can sleep in it yet I broke out hmmm. So I moved on to a mineral foundation by Jane Iredale and this as well was garbage. Then I climbed the ladder to a more expensive mineral foundation by La Bella Donna this was the worst one out of them all I not only was so oily I thought you could fry an egg on my skin but it broke me out like the rest. Lastly I tried a Indie company called Terra Firma and it was the least worst out of the others but still no go for me as it made me look chalky. I was up to my ears at this point and was going to give up on the whole mineral foundation thing but thought back about how I never tried Youngblood and it was the first one I initially was going to try anyways but didn’t. So I bought the Youngblood loose mineral foundation in Soft Beige and their loose rice setting powder. I am nc15-nc20 in Mac and the Soft Beige matched me perfectly! It is so silky smooth and looks absolutely amazing on my skin. Oh my goodness there is actually coverage with this as opposed to the others that offered nothing. The best part is I have not broken out with using this mineral foundation and rice powder, in fact the breakouts I’ve got from using all that other garbage has been calming down and clearing up. I am so thrilled to have finally found a mineral foundation that is everything I would have envisioned it to be. I would highly recommend this to every woman. My search is over! LOVE THIS STUFF!!

I love this product

The best foundation I have ever used. Hands down better than Bare Minerals. You don’t realise your wearing it as it’s so light. Not good for greasy or T zone skin.
