Youngblood Summer 2012 Collection- Shiny Lip Gel and Luminous Creme Blush

Youngblood Mineral Cosmetics’ new summer line is perfect for a carefree day in the sun! Featuring their new Mighty Shiny Lip Gels ($25.50) and Luminous Creme Blush ($27), this line can create an extremely simple makeup look that is gorgeous. This line also includes “Minerals in the Mist,” which I hadn’t heard about, but it looks very nice as well as a facial mist for those hot summer days. I’ve got 2 of the lip gels and one creme blush to share with you today!

Youngblood Mineral Cosmetics Mighty Shiny Lip Gel Gloss in Stripped, Displayed

The two Mighty Shiny Lip Gels that I received are in Stripped and Displayed. These are super-shiny glosses with some pretty shimmer! I find them to be stickier than what I’m used to, but surprisingly I like it because it makes it last longer! They have 5 other shades- 2 that are catching my eye are exposed (grape) and confessed (watermelon). These colors are sheer and very juicy looking!

Mighty Shiny Lip Gel Gloss in Stripped

Stripped is a clear gloss with multicolored shimmer. I love how this looks in the tube with all of the bubbles! It is gorgeous!

Youngblood Mighty Shiny Lip Gel in Stripped Swatch

When swatched on the lips, Stripped doesn’t show off too much glitter, which I like. This gloss IS mighty shiny! It’s definitely the most shiny gloss I’ve owned and now I’m obsessed. I love to wear this over my lip stains, which are also perfect for summer!

Youngblood Mighty Shiny Lip Gel in Display

Next, the lip gel in Display is a red-orange with golden shimmer. I wasn’t sure I would like this one due to the shimmer, but I really like it because it isn’t frosty and overpowering.

Just like Stripped, Display is an ultra glossy gel. This one gives a pretty pink tint to the lips with subtle shimmer throughout. I love to wear this over some of my favorite orange lipsticks!

Youngblood Luminous Creme Blush in Pink Cashmere

Youngblood’s Luminous Creme Blush in Pink Cashmere is shockingly the first cream blush I’ve EVER used. Since I have oily skin, I always thought I couldn’t wear cream blushes. The formulation of these are similar to a cream to powder formula, so it isn’t very shiny, which I like a lot! I had another cream blush by them stashed away thinking I couldn’t use it, but now I think these will be a summer essential. I like to layer a powder blush on top of it sometimes for more staying power.

Pink Cashmere is a gorgeous pink color (duh) that is matte, and kind of has some peachy tones on my skin! It is nicely pigmented and really nice. I’m definitely a changed woman when it comes to cream blush, these don’t leave me with a bad taste in my mouth like I thought it would. If only they had a bright orange…YES I’m obsessed!
