Youngblood Mineral Crème Lipstick Muse 4g

Creamy lipstick in a warm, neutral beige for a soft nude lip

Beige nudes are loved for their calm: they give the lips a well-groomed, even colour without a pink or red tone. A warm beige also blends beautifully with skin that has a golden or olive undertone, as well as with tanned skin.

Muse is a warm, neutral beige. The Youngblood Mineral Crème Lipstick Muse has a creamy, silky formula that glides effortlessly over the lips. The colour is full and true, with a satin crème finish and a comfortable, cushiony feel. According to Youngblood, the lipstick leaves the lips soft, cared for and beautifully defined.

Colour: Muse is a warm, neutral beige: warmer than Barely Nude and lighter than the peachy brown Secret. It's the most beige shade in the range.

Active ingredients

The key nourishing ingredients:

Sunflower oil: A nourishing oil that leaves the lips feeling soft and comfortable. Together with castor oil, it creates the creamy, cushiony texture.

Mica: Ethically sourced, according to Youngblood. Mica gives a subtle sheen and a silky texture, and contributes to the satin crème finish.

Jojoba oil: Simmondsia chinensis. According to Youngblood, jojoba oil cares for and hydrates the lips, so the lipstick glides smoothly and the lips feel soft.

Vitamin E: Listed in the ingredients as tocopherol and tocopheryl acetate. It nourishes and softens the lips and helps keep the oils in the formula stable.

Aloe vera and chamomile: According to Youngblood, aloe vera and chamomile extracts soothe and hydrate. They help keep the lips soft and balanced.

4. Blot with a tissue and apply a second layer for a fuller, longer-lasting colour

Frequently asked questions

Which skin does Muse suit best?

Muse looks best on skin with a warm, golden or olive undertone, and on medium to olive skin. There, the shade comes across as a natural, warm nude. On very fair, cool skin, a beige lipstick can look flat; Naked is often a better choice then.

How do I create a 90s lip with Muse?

Outline the lips with a slightly darker, brownish lip liner such as Au Naturel or Malt and blend the line inwards. Then fill in the lips with Muse. This gives you the warm, full nude lip that is typical of that style.

What's the difference between Muse and Secret?

Muse is a warm beige, while Secret is deeper: a warm peachy brown. Secret gives more colour and depth, Muse stays lighter and calmer.

Which lip liner goes with Muse?

The Lip Liner Pencil Au Naturel goes well with Muse. Use it to outline the lips first and lightly fill them in; that way the lipstick stays put for longer and doesn't bleed. Always choose a lip liner that is as dark as or just slightly darker than your lipstick.

Is the lipstick vegan?

No, we can't promise that. Depending on the shade, the lipstick may contain carmine (CI 75470), a colourant of animal origin. The full ingredient list is on the packaging.
