Youngblood BeyondBlur Skin Perfecting Foundation MN2 30ml

Liquid foundation with 70% skincare ingredients for medium skin with a neutral olive undertone

Medium skin with a neutral undertone plus an olive nuance is a profile that is overlooked in many foundation ranges. Standard neutral medium shades lack the olive-green component that is so characteristic of this skin tone, while distinctly warm medium shades tend to look too golden or yellow. The result is a foundation that contrasts with the natural skin tone around the jawline. The youngblood beyondblur skin perfecting foundation MN2 was developed specifically for this profile: a medium shade with a balanced neutral undertone plus a subtle olive nuance that respects the olive-green base of the skin.

This youngblood beyondblur foundation MN2 combines the buildable full coverage of the BeyondBlur range with a formula consisting of 70% skincare ingredients. Hyaluronic acid, Bio-Peptides, Super Duo Rice & Tapioca Powder, and the exclusive REMTrio® Complex actively work during wear to hydrate, strengthen, and revitalize the skin. The result is a luminous soft-matte finish that lasts up to 12 hours, is water-resistant and transfer-proof, without drying out the skin underneath or feeling heavy.

Shade: a medium shade with a neutral undertone and subtle olive nuance, ideal for medium skin with an olive-green or tinted-neutral base.

Active ingredients

The youngblood skin perfecting foundation MN2 owes its performance to a combination of four active skincare complexes, each serving a specific purpose:

Super Duo Rice & Tapioca Powder: This ingredient duo blurs the appearance of fine lines and imperfections and balances excess sebum for the characteristic filter finish of the youngblood beyondblur skin perfecting foundation MN2. Rice powder absorbs excess shine in the T-zone without drying out the rest of the face, while tapioca powder provides a velvety finish.

Hyaluronic acid: Boosts skin hydration and helps maintain the moisture balance throughout the day. Although the foundation provides a matte finish, the skin underneath remains comfortable and hydrated — a balance that is especially important for olive-toned skin, as the wrong formulas can quickly make it look ashy or dry.

Bio-Peptides: These peptides work to visibly firm and strengthen the skin, resulting in a lifted and defined finish. With prolonged use, they contribute to a refined skin texture to which the youngblood foundation beyond blur MN2 adheres optimally.

REMTrio® Complex: An exclusive blend of Magnesium PCA and Blue and White Lotus extracts. This complex energizes tired skin, calms signs of stress, improves elasticity, and stimulates cell renewal — creating a subtle botox-like effect over time.

How to use

1. Thoroughly cleanse the face and apply your usual skincare routine, finishing with moisturizer; allow it to absorb completely
2. Optional: use a primer for extra wear time or a smoother base
3. Pump 1 to 2 applications of product onto the back of your hand or directly onto the YB16 Skin Perfecting Foundation Luxe Brush — the brush officially recommended by Youngblood for this foundation
4. Start in the center of the face and work outward using buffing and sweeping motions — the brush is specially designed for this application technique
5. Build coverage where needed by applying a second thin layer to problem areas
6. In the morning, always finish with sun protection as the final step

• Sensitive and blemish-prone skin thanks to the dermatologically tested formula
• Oily to combination skin that wants to control shine without drying out
• Mature skin that values active skincare in the formula alongside coverage — the youngblood beyondblur skin perfecting foundation MN2 works to hydrate and strengthen the skin during wear

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between MN2 and MN1?

Both shades fall within the medium range with a neutral undertone, but MN1 has a clean, pure neutral undertone without an olive component, while the youngblood beyondblur foundation MN2 has a subtle olive nuance that supports the olive-green base of the skin. If you see a subtle olive-green tint in your skin alongside its neutral quality, MN2 is generally the right choice. If that olive component is absent, MN1 is a better match. When in doubt, we recommend swatching along the jawline in daylight.

How can I tell whether I have an olive undertone with medium skin?

An olive-green undertone becomes visible when you look in the mirror in daylight without makeup and pay attention to the nuance around the cheeks and jawline — if your skin has a subtle greenish or tinted-olive undertone alongside its medium depth, you fall within the olive range. Customers with this undertone often notice that standard beige or neutral foundations look “yellow” or appear patchy on the skin. The youngblood skin perfecting foundation MN2 is specifically tailored to this profile, preserving the olive nuance rather than neutralizing it.

Does MN2 work on skin with acne scars or pigmentation spots?

Yes, this medium-neutral shade with an olive nuance provides strong, buildable coverage for acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and post-inflammatory discoloration that typically occurs on olive-toned skin. The youngblood foundation beyond blur MN2 combines this with the soothing action of Panthenol and skin-barrier-strengthening Bio-Peptides, which is an especially welcome added benefit for active blemish-prone skin. For significant pigmentation, we recommend first treating the spots individually with a concealer that corrects the undertone.
