Youngblood VividLuxe Crème Blush Stick Sorbet 9.5g

Cream blush stick in bright fuchsia for a striking flush

A bright pink blush is a statement. It gives your face colour and confidence, and suits looks in which make-up is meant to be seen. At the same time, fuchsia is surprisingly versatile: in a thin layer it gives a cool, fresh flush, while built up it becomes a bold pop of colour.

The Youngblood VividLuxe Crème Blush Stick Sorbet is a vivid fuchsia in a creamy stick, made for cheeks and lips. The colour is richly pigmented, so even a small amount shows. Light-reflecting minerals give a radiant glow, and the cream melts into the skin for a second-skin finish. Hyaluronic acid, a peptide and hemisqualane provide comfort.

Colour: Sorbet is the brightest pink shade in the VividLuxe range: a vivid fuchsia with a cool feel. Parfait is the soft baby pink version, Mulberry a deep, dusty rose for a more muted look, and Pomelo the bright warm counterpart in coral.

Benefits

• For cheeks and lips, including as a monochrome look
• With hyaluronic acid, acetyl hexapeptide-8, hemisqualane and shea butter
• Radiant, natural finish

Active ingredients

Beneath the bright colour lies a caring base.

Hyaluronic acid (sodium hyaluronate): Binds moisture and makes the skin under the blush look plumper and smoother. This matters with a bright colour, because dry patches show up more quickly.

Acetyl hexapeptide-8: A peptide included in the formula as a caring ingredient. This way, the stick combines colour with skincare.

Hemisqualane: According to Youngblood, a light, natural antioxidant and emollient. It holds moisture and lets the stick glide smoothly over the skin.

Shea butter: Supports the moisture balance of skin and lips. Nice if you wear Sorbet as a lip colour.

Mineral pigments and colourants: Iron oxides and titanium dioxide, together with the pink colourants, create the saturated fuchsia shade. The colour still feels light on the skin.

How to use

1. Apply your base; a bright blush looks best on an even complexion
2. Pick up a little product directly from the stick with the YB14 Multi-Tasker Crème Blush Luxe Brush
3. Sweep the colour over the apples of your cheeks and blend upwards
4. Build up carefully: with Sorbet, a second thin layer is often enough
5. Dab a little on your lips for a soft pink stain, or apply the stick fully for a fuchsia lip

Suitable for

• Anyone who loves bold colour
• Evening looks, parties and a striking monochrome look
• A cool, fresh flush when applied thinly
• All skin tones, when dosed: thinly on light skin, more fully on deep skin

Frequently asked questions

How do I keep Sorbet from becoming too bright?

Start with a little product and pick up the colour on a brush first instead of applying it directly to your cheek. Lightly dust it over your cheeks for a cool, fresh flush. If it is still too much, blend over the edges with a clean brush or a damp sponge until the colour softens.

What is the difference between Sorbet and Mulberry?

Sorbet is a bright, clear fuchsia, Mulberry a deep dusty rose. Mulberry is more muted and gives a grown-up, elegant flush; Sorbet is more playful and eye-catching. If you want something in between, Parfait is a softer pink.

Can I wear Sorbet as a lip colour?

Yes. For a soft, stained look, dab the colour onto your lips with your fingertip. For a full fuchsia lip, apply the stick directly to your lips and add a second layer. Wear it on cheeks and lips at the same time for a monochrome look.

Is Sorbet also available as a mini?

Yes, the Mini VividLuxe Crème Blush Stick Sorbet of 2.5 g. A nice way to try a bright colour, or to take with you for a night out. If you use it often, choose the full-size 9.5 g stick.
