    Why you'll love it

    by Makeup Artist

    Do you have fine lines, pores or dark circles?

    Have you tried countless foundations, only to be faced with accentuating these issues further…?

    If you’re looking for a foundation that blurs pores, smoothes fine lines and covers dark circles - you’ve come to the right place!

    It may sound like an impossible challenge, but I’ve found a foundation that ticks all these boxes – and more!

    Not only will you be able to hide any imperfections (while boosting your confidence!), but this foundation also acts as a nourishing treatment for your skin to restore its plumpness and improve its texture.

    Plus, it doubles up as a concealer to help kiss goodbye to dark circles!

    Introducing:

    Youth Defense Foundation

    With its dewy-satin finish and buildable skincare infused coverage, this innovative foundation is both lightweight and breathable, effortlessly blending into your skin…

    …you’ll probably forget that you’re even wearing foundation!

    Get ready for your very best flawless complexion!

    What makes this foundation so unique?

    Youth Defense Foundation is a 2-in-1 foundation with a built-in concealer. It covers imperfections (such as enlarged pores and blemishes) and acts as your high-definition concealer hiding dark spots or under-eye circles!

    Plus, thanks to its soothing ingredients, it does an incredible job at smoothing fine lines and wrinkles, giving you the confidence to feel you’re showing off your best skin – whatever your age!

    Get a healthy, glowing, youthful complexion with the ultra-nourishing formulation… and without applying concealer underneath!

    Enjoy the buildable coverage - from sheer to medium - that lasts all day!
     
    With silky (never oily!) hydration, Youth Defense Foundation feels soothing and moisturising without causing breakouts or oiliness (or ending up looking shiny at the end of the day!)…

    …just the perfect base for all skin types to enjoy! 

    What’s more!

    Youth Defense Foundation is a foundation infused with skincare, so whilst the foundation makes your skin look incredible and hyper-real, you can also enjoy the skin-loving benefits of the foundation whilst you wear it!
     
    This foundation is what makeup dreams are made of – giving you the perfect coverage whilst caring for your skin at the same time.

    Ingredients you’ll love…

    This silky, breathable formula is thanks to skincare actives that your skin will love:

    Niacinamide

    Niacinamide, a water-soluble vitamin, helps minimize enlarged pores, improve uneven skin tone, soften fine lines and wrinkles, reduce dullness, and strengthen the skin's surface. This rejuvenating ingredient supports the natural skin barrier by balancing water and oil levels for healthy, hydrated, youthful-looking skin.

    Allantoin

    Allantoin is a natural anti-irritant and anti-inflammatory, which helps to soothe and calm the skin and counteract the drying effect. If you suffer from sensitive, irritated skin, then skin-saving protectant Allantoin is your answer!

    Hyaluronic Acid

    Hyaluronic Acid (often hailed as the 'Fountain of Youth'!) can hold up to 1,000 times its own weight in water, helping skin look plumper, bouncier and more hydrated - resulting in a more youthful-looking, balanced and healthy complexion! It helps keep your skin moisturised and radiant and can help prevent wrinkles, filling in and reducing their appearance.

    Shea Butter

    Shea Butter is an antimicrobial with healing and moisturising properties that reduce inflammation and soothe the skin. Rich in Vitamin E, it neutralises free radicals, heals skin damage, improves moisture, promotes a healthy protective barrier, and helps fight wrinkles.

    Nourishing Oils

    Your skin will love these highly nurturing oils! 

    Apricot Kernel Oil moisturises dry, sensitive, or blemish-prone skin and smooths wrinkles and fine lines. Meadowfoam Oil fights free radicals and protects the skin's natural barrier by locking in moisture, keeping skin soft and supple. Olive Oil, rich in nutrients, protects against premature aging, rejuvenates after sun damage, and prevents water loss, keeping skin plump and hydrated. Super-emollient Sunflower Seed Oil nourishes and protects against acne, inflammation, eczema, redness, and irritation, with a calming effect that reduces skin stress.

    Natural extracts

    These natural extracts help care for your skin from within!

    Japanese Knotweed Root Extract, rich in resveratrol, fights hyperpigmentation and dark spots, enhances skin elasticity, and protects against oxidative stress and premature aging. Chinese Skullcap Root helps skin withstand environmental aggressors and benefits sensitive skin with uneven tone. Tea Leaf Extract provides antimicrobial, astringent, and anti-inflammatory properties, protecting your skin from free radicals.

    Liquorice Root improves hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone by reducing melanin production and brightening the skin. Rosemary Leaf Extract has a calming effect and antioxidants that neutralise damaging oxidative molecules. Chamomile Flower Extract, perfect for sensitive skin, has healing, anti-inflammatory, and regenerating properties, reducing acne breakouts and inflammation. Gotu Kola tightens skin cells to lessen sagging and promote a youthful complexion.

    And that’s not all…

    Youth Defense Foundation goes on smoothly, efficiently and with zero tell-tale lines – it’s your skin, only on its best day.

    Plus, it's been specially designed to make sensitive or breakout-prone skin feel super soft and happy!

    It even has a natural SPF to protect your complexion, keeping it in top form.

    Youth Defense Foundation provides a natural UV shield with titanium dioxide (similar to SPF 20 but chemical-free)... just remember to wear a separate SPF for maximum protection!

    To minimise pores, lines, redness, under-eye circles, and uneven tone, and achieve a brighter, smoother complexion (even after removal!), these active ingredients provide instant...

    ... and lasting results!

    Ingredients

    The Magic Formula Inside:
    • Niacinamide is a hydrating, moisturising and pro-ageing ingredient with humectant properties allowing it to lock in moisture from surrounding areas, making it a highly effective skin-restoring agent. Fine lines, wrinkles, dryness and dehydration are reduced, and UV damage, pollution and other environmental aggressors caused by free radicals are blocked thanks to its antioxidant benefits. Niacinamide is a highly rejuvenating ingredient that helps the natural skin barrier keep the correct water and oil levels for healthy, hydrated, youthful-looking skin.

    • Allantoin (extract from the root of the comfrey plant) is a natural anti-irritant and anti-inflammatory, which helps to soothe and calm the skin and counteract the skin's drying effect. If you suffer from sensitive, irritated skin, then skin-saving protectant Allantoin is your answer!

    • Hyaluronic Acid (hailed as the 'Fountain of Youth'!) can hold up to 1,000 times its own weight in water, helping skin look plumper, bouncier and more hydrated - resulting in a more youthful-looking, healthy complexion! It helps keep your skin moisturised and radiant and can help prevent wrinkles, filling in and reducing their appearance. Decreased Hyaluronic Acid can make skin look dry and rough, but HA boosts high moisturising and water content to help keep the skin moist and smooth.

    • Shea Butter is a skin-loving antimicrobial with healing and moisturising properties to help reduce inflammation and soothe and calm the skin. Rich in Vitamin E (an antioxidant that neutralises damaging free radicals), it heals skin damage, improves skin moisture, promotes a healthy protective skin barrier and helps to fight wrinkles. As an emollient vegan fruit wax, it softens dry skin areas making it excellent for keeping your skin softer for longer.

    • This is one clever combination of highly nurturing oils your skin will love!

It protects your skin from free radicals (unstable molecules that can cause damage to your skin cells) to keep your skin looking younger for longer! Thanks to the antioxidant potential of EGCG, it may also protect the skin from damage from ultraviolet radiation (UVR), which causes sunburn and may lead to premature skin ageing. Because of its antioxidant qualities, it helps to reduce oxidative stress on the skin, which can lead to wrinkles and uneven pigmentation. Plus, it’s great for acne-prone skin as it keeps skin balanced and hydrated and helps soothe and calm skin while protecting collagen production.

This means it fights wrinkles, pigmentation and other ageing issues and helps reduce scarring as it stimulates new tissue. Gotu Kola keeps skin cells tight to lessen sagging skin and promote a more youthful-looking complexion.
