Youngblood lip make-up: lip liner, lipstick, liquid lipstick, lip gloss and lip oil

Lip make-up completes a look. A lip liner gives shape, a lipstick or liquid lipstick provides the colour, and a gloss or lip oil adds shine and a fuller-looking effect. Whether you're after a soft nude for every day or a red lip for a night out: the choice starts with the finish you love.

Youngblood has five product lines for the lips, each with its own texture and finish. Below you can read what each line is for and who it suits best, so it's easier to choose.

How do you choose the right lip make-up?

First look at the finish you want: matte, satin or glossy. A liquid lipstick gives a soft matte, long-lasting colour; a bullet lipstick gives a creamy satin finish; a gloss or lip oil adds shine. Then choose how much colour you want, from sheer to full coverage. And with a lip liner underneath, every lip colour stays sharper and lasts longer.

Which lip make-up suits you?

Lip Liner Pencil: A creamy lip liner in 7 shades, from nude to wine red, with a soft matte finish. It defines the contour, keeps lipstick in place and can also be worn on its own as a matte lip colour.

Mineral Crème Lipstick: A creamy bullet with medium coverage and a satin crème finish, in 14 shades from soft nude to deep berry red. Lovely if you're looking for a comfortable lipstick with a soft sheen.

Hydrating Liquid Lip Crème: A liquid lipstick with full coverage and a soft matte finish with little transfer, in 10 shades. For anyone who loves matte lips but doesn't want a dry feel.

Lip Gloss: A high-shine gloss with a light, non-sticky texture, in 9 shades from clear to berry red, some with shimmer. Beautiful on its own or over a lipstick.

EverGlow Lip Oil: A cross between lip gloss and lip oil with a mirror-like shine and a sheer colour, in 6 shades. It cares for the lips with argan, apricot kernel and prickly pear seed oil and makes them look fuller.

Tips for the right choice

• Long-lasting: choose the liquid lipstick, or define the contour with a lip liner first
• Comfort and shine: a creamy bullet, gloss or lip oil feels the softest
• A hint of colour: a sheer gloss or lip oil mainly gives shine and freshness
• Fuller-looking lips: a lip liner just on the contour and a gloss or lip oil in the centre
• Dry lips: apply a lip balm beforehand and let it absorb well

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between lipstick, liquid lipstick, gloss and lip oil?

A lipstick is a bullet with a creamy texture; at Youngblood with a satin crème finish. A liquid lipstick is fluid and dries down to a matte, long-lasting colour. A gloss mainly gives shine with a sheer to buildable colour, and a lip oil combines shine with caring oils.

Do I need a lip liner?

Not always, but a lip liner makes the line sharper and stops lipstick from bleeding into the fine lines around the mouth. It also helps the colour last longer. For every lipstick, liquid lipstick and gloss, you'll find a matching Youngblood lip liner on the product page.

Which lip colour suits my skin?

Pay attention to your undertone. With a warm undertone, peach, coral, warm brown and rosewood often look lovely; with a cool undertone, pink, mauve, berry and a cool red. Neutral nudes and rosewood suit many skin tones. Not sure? Send us a message via WhatsApp with a photo taken in daylight.

Can I combine products?

Yes. A lip liner under a lipstick or liquid lipstick gives a sharp edge; a gloss or lip oil on top makes the colour glossy and the lips look fuller. Bear in mind that a matte colour doesn't last as long if you wear shine over it.

How do I make lipstick last longer?

First define the contour with a lip liner and lightly fill in the lips. Then apply your lipstick, blot with a tissue and apply a second layer. For the longest wear, choose the Hydrating Liquid Lip Crème.
