Youngblood Pro Sculpt Crème Contour Stick Sun-Bathed 10g

Cream contour stick in tan bronze for warm depth on medium to tanned skin

If you have slightly darker or tanned skin, you often notice that light contour products disappear or look greyish. A tan bronze shade has more warmth and depth, so it sits on the skin like a natural shadow. In cream form, a colour like this melts beautifully into the skin. Youngblood Pro Sculpt Crème Contour Stick Sun-Bathed is made for that warm, sunny definition.

The stick is richly pigmented, so a few swipes already give you plenty of colour. The lightweight cream blends seamlessly and is buildable: sheer for a soft warmth, in layers for a pronounced contour. According to Youngblood, the stick has a luminous, soft-matte finish. The formula includes peptides, hyaluronic acid, niacinamide and shea butter, and it is talc-free. The stick contains 10 g.

Colour: Sun-Bathed is a tan bronze, the middle of the five shades. It is deeper and warmer than Sun-Kissed and lighter than Sun-Basked, and often gives a natural shadow on medium to tanned skin. For lighter skin there are Sun-Lit and Sun-Kissed, for deeper skin Sun-Basked and Sun-Drenched.

Active ingredients

The caring ingredients make sure the stick stays comfortable:

Peptides: Acetyl hexapeptide-8 is a peptide from skincare that contributes to smooth-looking skin. In a contour stick, it cares for the skin while you wear make-up.

Shea butter: A rich plant butter that helps retain moisture. It gives the cream its smooth, supple texture.

Hyaluronic acid: Attracts moisture and keeps the skin hydrated. This keeps the contour comfortable and stops it from looking dry.

Iron oxides: Mineral pigments for a rich, breathable colour. They create the warm tan shade of Sun-Bathed.

Frequently asked questions

Does Sun-Bathed suit fair skin?

As a soft contour it can, as long as you use a little product and blend well. As a bronzer over larger areas, it may look too dark on fair skin. For fair skin, Sun-Lit or Sun-Kissed are usually more natural.

How do I contour my nose with a cream stick?

Draw two thin lines along the sides of the bridge of the nose and blend them out softly with a small brush or your fingertip. Leave the top of the nose clear or add a highlighter there. That way the nose looks slimmer without harsh lines.

Does the cream contour last all day?

The richly pigmented formula is made to be buildable and long-wearing. You can help by applying the stick over an even base and blending it well. For extra hold, press a thin layer of powder over the top.

Which highlighter suits Sun-Bathed?

A warm champagne or gold shade pairs beautifully with this tan bronze. Apply it on top of the cheekbones, just above the contour. The Light Reflecting Highlighter in Aurora is a good choice for that.
