Youngblood Liquid Mineral Foundation Nutmeg 30ml

Liquid foundation with deep-sea hydrating complex for tan skin with a neutral undertone

Foundation that covers the skin is one thing — foundation that also hydrates, soothes, and nourishes the skin is fundamentally something else. Youngblood Liquid Mineral Foundation is built around this second principle: a clean formula in which makeup and skincare come together seamlessly. Deep Sea Water from the Korea East Sea, sourced at a depth of 200 meters, forms the base — this rare mineral water contains Magnesium, Calcium, and Potassium in the same ratio as the human body, supporting the skin’s balance and elasticity. For tan skin with a neutral undertone, youngblood liquid mineral foundation Nutmeg is the shade that blends seamlessly without a pronounced warm or cool bias.

This youngblood liquid foundation Nutmeg is a tan shade with a balanced neutral undertone from the range — suitable for skin in the tan spectrum where Golden Tan is too light and Suntan appears distinctly too cool. Nutmeg sits in the middle of the tan range, with a subtle golden-brown glow that supports the skin’s natural tone without overpowering it. The light-to-medium coverage is buildable and delivers a luminous, dewy finish that makes the skin look healthy and hydrated. Active ingredients such as Cucumber Extract, Calendula Flower Extract, Squalane, and Green Tea work while you wear it to hydrate, soothe, and provide antioxidant protection — a philosophy that makes this foundation an award-winning bestseller in the Youngblood range.

Color: a tan shade with a balanced neutral undertone and subtle golden-brown glow for tan skin without a distinctly warm or cool preference.

Active ingredients

The youngblood liquid mineral foundation Nutmeg owes its performance to a distinctive skincare blend in which each ingredient serves a specific purpose:

Deep Sea Water: This is the formula’s signature ingredient — sourced at a depth of 200 meters below the water’s surface in the Korea East Sea, where it is protected from inorganic contaminants. Deep Sea Water contains Magnesium, Calcium, and Potassium in exactly the same ratio as the human body and helps restore the skin’s balance. It stimulates collagen production, improves elasticity, and helps remove toxins.

Squalane: A non-comedogenic ingredient that balances sebum production without clogging the skin. Squalane deeply hydrates, supports the skin barrier, and keeps the skin supple and resilient throughout the day.

Cucumber & Calendula Flower Extract: On neutral tan skin, these extracts help even out minor variations in skin tone and soothe heightened sensitivity. The refreshing hydration of Cucumber and the anti-inflammatory action of Calendula support the youngblood liquid foundation Nutmeg in creating an even, natural finish through which the neutral golden-brown glow can softly show.

Willow Bark & Green Tea Extract: Willow Bark acts as a gentle exfoliant and regulates excess sebum, while Green Tea is rich in antioxidants that protect the skin from environmental damage and premature signs of aging.

How to use it

1. Cleanse the face thoroughly and apply your usual skincare routine up to and including moisturizer; allow it to absorb completely
2. Optional: use a primer for extra longevity or a smoother base
3. Shake the bottle well before use to activate the formula
4. Pump 1 dose of foundation onto the back of your hand or directly onto the YB3 Liquid Buffing Luxe Brush for buffing in circular motions with buildable coverage, or onto the YB4 Foundation Luxe Brush for precise sweeping application around the nose and eye area
5. Start in the center of the face and work outward with the brush for an even, second-skin result
6. Add an extra pump where more coverage is desired — the formula builds seamlessly without becoming cakey
7. In the morning, always finish with sunscreen as the final step

Frequently asked questions

How do I know if I have a neutral undertone with tan skin?

With a neutral undertone, the veins on the inside of your wrist appear both blue and green — you cannot make a clear distinction. Both silver and gold also suit your skin. If you recognize yourself in this and your depth falls within the tan range, the youngblood liquid foundation Nutmeg is a logical choice. Customers with a neutral undertone often notice that distinctly warm (Tahitian Sun) or cool (Suntan) tan foundations contrast with their natural skin tone — Nutmeg solves this problem by remaining balanced.

I find Nutmeg a little too light and too yellow — what is the next logical step?

Youngblood itself recommends Suntan as the next shade for Nutmeg wearers who find the shade too light or too yellow. Suntan is one step deeper and has a rosier, cooler nuance instead of yellow. If you are unsure, you can mix Nutmeg and Suntan on the back of your hand to create an in-between shade — the liquid formula makes blending particularly easy. In the opposite direction, if Nutmeg turns out to be slightly too dark, Golden Tan is the logical step back.

Can I wear Nutmeg year-round, or should I choose something lighter in winter?

For customers with naturally tan skin that does not become drastically lighter in winter, Nutmeg is an excellent year-round choice. If you become noticeably lighter in winter, mixing it with Golden Tan or Sun Kissed is a great solution to adjust the shade without purchasing a second full bottle. The light-to-medium coverage also allows you to apply slightly less in winter for a lighter veil, making the shade appear less full-coverage and therefore visually a little lighter.
