Youngblood Pro Sculpt Crème Contour Stick Sun-Basked 10g

Cream contour stick in dark bronze for rich definition on tanned to deep skin

A good contour follows the natural shadows of the face, and on tanned or deep skin those shadows are warmer and deeper than on fair skin. A dark bronze matches them better than a cool grey-brown contour, which can quickly look dull on deeper skin. Youngblood Pro Sculpt Crème Contour Stick Sun-Basked brings that rich, warm depth in a creamy stick.

Sun-Basked has a richly pigmented, lightweight formula that glides smoothly from the stick and melts seamlessly into the skin. You decide how intense the contour becomes: sheer for soft definition, in layers for a sculpted look. According to Youngblood, the finish is luminous and soft-matte. Hyaluronic acid, niacinamide and hemisqualane keep the skin hydrated and the cream supple. The stick contains 10 g.

Colour: Sun-Basked is a dark bronze, the second deepest shade in the range. It gives rich warmth and clear definition and often looks natural on tanned to deep skin. If you want even more depth, choose Sun-Drenched (deep bronze); for slightly lighter there is Sun-Bathed (tan bronze).

Active ingredients

This is how Sun-Basked combines colour with care:

Hyaluronic acid: Holds moisture in the skin. This keeps the contour looking supple and stops it from settling into a dry patch.

Hemisqualane: A lightly softening ingredient that helps retain moisture. It gives the cream a silky glide without feeling greasy.

Niacinamide: Helps the complexion look more even and smoother. An even base makes the contour look calmer.

Iron oxides: Mineral pigments for a rich, breathable colour. They give Sun-Basked its deep, warm bronze shade.

Frequently asked questions

Can I also use Sun-Basked as a bronzer?

Yes, on deep skin it gives a rich, sunny warmth. Apply it to the temples, forehead and the top of the cheeks and blend well. On lighter skin it is better used only as a contour.

Do I need to set the cream contour with powder?

You don't have to, but it helps with oilier skin or on a long day. Press a thin layer of translucent powder over the contour rather than sweeping. That way the cream stays nicely in place.

Which highlighter suits Sun-Basked?

Gold and bronze shades give the most beautiful glow on deeper skin. Fiesta from the Light Reflecting Highlighter range is a rich bronze with a golden sheen and pairs well. Place the highlighter just above the contour on the cheekbones.
