Youngblood Liquid Mineral Foundation Sand 30ml

Liquid foundation with deep-sea hydrating complex for light-to-medium skin with a warm 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 from 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 light-to-medium skin with a warm undertone, Youngblood Liquid Mineral Foundation Sand is exactly the shade that enhances the skin’s natural golden glow without looking orange or overly mask-like.

This Youngblood Liquid Foundation Sand is a light-to-medium shade with a distinctly warm undertone from the range — suitable for skin where Shell is just too light and Capri looks just a little too deep. The light-to-medium coverage is buildable and provides 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 has made this foundation an award-winning bestseller in the Youngblood range for years.

Color: a light-to-medium shade with a distinctly warm, golden-beige undertone for skin with a honey-like or golden base in the transitional range.

Active ingredients

Youngblood Liquid Mineral Foundation Sand owes its performance to a distinctive skincare blend in which each ingredient serves a specific function:

Deep Sea Water: This is the formula’s signature ingredient — sourced from 200 meters below the surface of the Korea East Sea, where it is protected from non-organic pollution. 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: These plant extracts soothe the skin and provide a refreshing, anti-inflammatory effect. For Youngblood Liquid Foundation Sand on warm light-to-medium skin — which often shows visible redness around the cheeks and sides of the nose — they help create a calm, even complexion.

Willow Bark & Green Tea Extract: Willow Bark acts as a mild 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, finishing with moisturizer; allow it to absorb fully
2. Optional: use a primer for extra staying power 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 circular buffing application with buildable coverage, or onto the YB4 Foundation Luxe Brush for precise sweeping application around the nose and eye contour
5. Start in the center of the face and work outward with the brush for an even, second-skin result
6. Add another pump wherever 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

What is the difference between Sand and Shell?

Both are warm shades, but Shell falls within the light range, while Youngblood Liquid Foundation Sand is one step deeper — in the light-to-medium segment. If you identify your skin as a light shade with warm undertones, Shell is the right choice. If your skin is clearly deeper within the light-to-medium range with the same warm base, Sand is a better match. If in doubt, we recommend swatching along the jawline and seeing which shade blends seamlessly into the skin of the neck.

Can I mix Sand if my skin changes with the seasons?

Yes, all shades from the Liquid Mineral Foundation range can be mixed using the pump — pump both desired shades onto the back of your hand and blend them with the brush. When transitioning into summer, when the skin develops a little more color, Sand can be combined with Capri or Sun Kissed for a deeper result. In winter, when the skin is slightly lighter, mixing it with Shell is a great solution.

Does Sand work on skin with melasma or dark pigmentation?

Yes, thanks to its buildable coverage up to medium coverage, Sand provides strong evening-out coverage for melasma and dark pigmentation, which often occur on warm light-to-medium skin. Chamomile Flower Extract in the formula also provides a mild brightening effect and helps reduce the visibility of hyperpigmentation over time. For pronounced spots, we recommend first treating them individually with a concealer featuring a corrective peach undertone, then building up the foundation in thin layers.
