Youngblood Mineral Radiance Sunshine 9.5g

Mineral bronzer in a single radiant, soft terracotta shade

A bronzer gives the face warmth and a sunny look, even in the months when you spend little time outdoors. The secret is in the shade: too orange or too dark quickly stands out, while a soft, warm colour makes the skin look healthy. A light sheen in the bronzer makes the result livelier than a completely matte powder. Youngblood Mineral Radiance Sunshine is a mineral bronzer in a single, even shade with exactly that soft glow.

Sunshine has a silky, lightweight texture that glides easily over the skin and blends seamlessly. The fine mineral pigments refract light, giving the skin a radiant, multi-dimensional glow rather than a flat colour. You can build the intensity from a hint of warmth to a clearly bronzed look. According to Youngblood, rice starch helps keep the complexion even throughout the day. The compact contains 9.5 g.

Colour: Sunshine is a single bronzer shade in a radiant, soft terracotta with a fine sheen. The compact has a sun embossed in the powder. The shade adds warmth without turning orange, so it suits many skin tones, from fair to tanned. If you would rather have a compact with separate shades for blush, bronzer and highlight, take a look at Sundance.

Benefits

• Adds warmth and a sunny glow instead of flat colour

Key ingredients

Alongside the mineral pigments, these ingredients create the soft texture and long wear:

Mica: Ethically sourced, according to Youngblood. Mica adds a subtle sheen and a silky-smooth texture, and gives Sunshine the radiant finish that brings the bronzer to life.

Rice starch: Controls shine and helps make pores and uneven texture less visible. This keeps the bronzer looking even so it does not fade quickly.

Jojoba seed oil: Conditions and hydrates the skin. It makes the powder smooth, so the bronzer blends out without patches.

Vitamin E: Nourishes and softens the skin. This keeps the skin comfortable, even when you wear the bronzer all day.

How to use

1. Pick up a small amount of product with the YB5 Cheek Luxe Brush and tap off the excess
2. Sweep Sunshine over the areas where the sun naturally hits: cheekbones, temples and the top of the forehead
3. Briefly touch the jawline too for soft definition
4. Blend the edges well towards the hairline and the neck
5. Build up with a second layer if you want a more bronzed look

Suitable for

• All skin types, according to Youngblood
• Anyone looking for a warm bronzer shade that does not look orange
• Fair to tanned skin that wants sunny warmth
• A radiant finish instead of a matte bronzer

Frequently asked questions

Is Sunshine suitable for fair skin?

Yes, the soft terracotta shade is buildable. On fair skin use only a little product and tap off your brush, so you start with a hint of warmth. Blend well towards the hairline for a natural result.

Can I also use Sunshine for contouring?

For a soft contour you can apply Sunshine just below the cheekbones. Thanks to the light sheen it mainly gives warmth and soft definition rather than a sharp shadow. For a crisp contour, a matte, cooler shade works better.

What is the difference between Sunshine and Sundance?

Sunshine is a single, even bronzer shade; Sundance is a compact with four shades for blush, bronzer and highlight. If you mainly want a bronzer, choose Sunshine. If you want to create a complete cheek look with one compact, Sundance is the better fit.

Can I combine Sunshine with a highlighter?

Yes, apply Sunshine first and then place a highlighter on the high points of the cheekbones. The Light Reflecting Highlighter in Aurora or Fiesta pairs beautifully with the warm terracotta shade.
