Superior quality Mineral Makeup products like YOUNGBLOOD dramatically improve the look of any complexion giving the illusion of clear, healthy blemish free skin with just a light coverage and can be applied it in seconds. Read what the experts are saying about minerals.

Dr. Douglas Grose says, "When dealing with clients who have problems with acne or any clogged pore issue it is important that they be shown all the right things to do to help their skin but also be educated about doing incorrect treatments or using incorrect products. The two products that cause most of the problems I call "M & M's" - Makeup and Moisturisers.

Any product which adds pore clogging oils to the skin will aggravate congestion problems. Dye based makeup fall into this category. Changing Australian Skin Clinics clients over to using mineral powder based makeup such as Youngblood is one of the cornerstones of our acne management program. Our programs would not be nearly as effective if we did not use mineral makeup. In some cases, simply changing to a mineral based makeup is all that is need to solve the problem.

We have now been recommending mineral powder based makeup for seven years. We can confidently say that it does not aggravate acne or clogged pores, even in quite severe cases."

The creators of traditional formulas can only dream about the aesthetic attributes of Youngblood Minerals. For example, if applied properly, even a very light coverage can perform the following magic on your clients:

Give them the illusion of clean, healthy skin
Improves the look of almost every complexion
It will adhere to the skin so well that it won't come off until removed with a cleanser

Without looking heavy Youngblood Mineral Cosmetics cover almost every distraction. For people who suffer form rosacea, their inflammation can be covered effectively in minutes and the redness will not bleed through. This benefit is also enormously valuable by dramatically improving the appearance of those clients suffering from acne and other skin conditions. Youngblood Mineral Makeup can be worn on sensitive or allergy-prone skin, because of its lack of the main ingredients that sensitise skin.

Why are the ingredients so important?

Why does Youngblood Mineral Makeup work so effectively? Our Mineral makeup is formulated from elements derived from the earth's minerals. Its super fine silk-like powder contains combinations of ingredients such as titanium dioxide, iron oxides and mica. Youngblood Mineral Makeup can probably be better defined by what is NOT included in its composition.

One of the most commonly used fillers in traditional makeup is talc - a finely powdered magnesium silicate. Traditional makeup ingredients have a long list of binders, fillers, chemical dyes, fragrances and chemical preservatives. Talc isn't the only ingredient Youngblood mineral makeup has eliminated from its formulas.

* Our competitors include Zinc Oxide in their formulation; we chose not to, as it may be unsuitable for dry skin because of its astringent qualities. It is reported that our competitors use more mica and /or bismuth oxychloride in their foundation - which translates to more shine or luminosity. Youngblood felt that less shine may offer more versatile for women of any age. Mixing our Lunar Dust with any of our products can always increase luminosity.

You want to know what ingredients might be causing trouble to their skin. Skin enemy number one is perfume. It is the item that cannot only result in irritation or allergies but can also act as a photosensitiser. Perfume should only be applied where skin is not exposed to the sun; otherwise they are headed for hyper - or hypopigmentation. Signs of this kind of damage are often found in the neck area. If makeup contains perfume it can cause irritation and damage to their skin.

Why Youngblood Mineral Cosmetics?

As mentioned above, Youngblood Mineral cosmetics can be defined by its unique formulations which result in a natural dewy complexion. Unlike some mineral makeups on the market which can be dry, flat or cakey, Youngblood's formula leaves skin looking natural and luminous.

Youngblood offers a full line of Mineral Cosmetics for people of all ages. From teenagers with active lifestyles that may need protection from the sun, to mature people with demanding schedules who are seeking ease of application and effective long wear performance. This is the product of choice for any skin type whether oily, dry or combination skin.

Youngblood's sleek contemporary packaging also ensures that it appeals to all ages. Our exclusively designed container also provides a controlled distribution allowing you to dispense the exact amount of makeup you need with a tap of the finger. No more mess, no more waste!

Youngblood's affordable price point is also appealing for many of our stockists. Whilst some minerals retail around the $95 mark, Youngblood's Loose Mineral foundation retails for under $80, making it more affordable.

Youngblood Technology

Youngblood continues to stay ahead due to the spectacular advance in technology; from the way minerals are milled to the scope of colours now available and the variety of coatings that affect the way in which they scatter visible light. Youngblood Minerals scatter light when applied to the skin; this is how they give the illusion of perfection. Unlike a traditional matt powder that absorbs light and allows one to see into the skin, Youngblood Minerals act like hundreds of thousands of mirrors reflecting and refracting light back at the observer and obscuring imperfections that lie beneath.
