Faces of Youngblood
Q & A With Office Manager and Product Development Manager Lori de Jarnett
In her responsibilities as Office Manager and Product Development Manager, Lori de Jarnett is a valued member of the Youngblood team. We recently sat down with her to learn more about her responsibilities at Youngblood Mineral Cosmetics.
Lori, how long have you been with Youngblood? I've been with the company for two and a half years.
In your opinion, what has been the biggest change since you joined the company? We've seen such rapid, tremendous growth and demand for the brand. This has led to the necessity to expand the staff and the responsibilities of the entire team.
Which areas of your job do find most rewarding? Multi-tasking between Product Development and the daily responsibilities of Office Manager. One day can involve creating new products or categories and the next day I'm working on corporate travel, tradeshows or overseeing marketing projects at the development stage.
What would you say is your biggest challenge at your position? Planning accordingly to meet all deadlines, as well as maintaining the daily structure and schedule within the office.
Summarize your thoughts on working for Youngblood...I truly enjoy the "industry" itself. Working for Pauline and Peter has allowed me to utilize my creative side and my vast experience from other industries. The fast paced atmosphere makes every day challenging and exciting.

Luis Asks: Is Youngblood Mineral Foundation good for dry skin?
Dear Luis,
I hear this question a lot in my Youngblood travels. The answer is... YES! Any skin type is suitable for our Loose Mineral Foundation. Youngblood doesn't have zinc oxide, which can cause dryness. If you have dry skin, simply moisturize it well, then add Mineral Rice Setting Powder on top to bind the moisturizer to the skin and finish by applying your loose foundation for a flawless face. We also offer Liquid Mineral Foundation, which is ideal for dry skin. It provides lots of moisture, minerals, and vitamins and makes the skin feel great. If you have combo or oily skin, but are dehydrated, you may want to use the liquid to give your skin the added moisture it needs. | |

Shine in the New Year
By Liliana Pennington
The Holiday season is here and that means parties, celebrations and get-togethers. With this in mind, Youngblood has created "Highlight the Holiday Season." This limited edition collection choice to add glam to your personal style. Illuminate the eyes with "Highlight the Holiday Season's" Pressed Individual Eyeshadow in a shimmery silver, add sparkle to the lips with Reflection Lip Gloss, and Lunar Dust in dazzling Twilight, will provide an extra glow to face and body. 
Let "Highlight the Holiday Season" take you from a day at the office to a night on the town in a few simple steps:
- For an all over luminous appearance, dust Lunar Dust in Twilight on your cheekbones, shoulders and décolleté with the large Kabuki Brush.
- For a shimmery look, mix your favorite body lotion with the Twilight Lunar Dust and smooth over the un-covered areas of your body. The more Twilight, the more shimmer. This will not only give you a special holiday sparkle, but will also give your skin a dewy, toned look.
- To create the illusion of higher cheekbones, gently dust Twilight Lunar Dust (making sure to tap off the excess) above the upper cheek tones of your blush using the Contour Blush Brush.
- Getting a manicure before a big event? Sometimes choosing the perfect color to complement your wardrobe can be tricky. Mix clear topcoat enamel with some Twilight Lunar Dust and you've instantly created a fresh, new, sparkly color! Or use this topcoat to add some "twinkle" over nail color.
- To add sheen and give lips a fuller, p
 outy appearance, start with Youngblood's Lipstick in Mystere and add a dash of Reflection Lip Gloss to the center of the lips.
Hopefully, these
pointers will help you make a breathtaking entrance at your next
Holiday bash. And remember, let your Youngblood Mineral Cosmetics shine
throughout the New Year!

Instant Classics Smoldering eyes, classic red lips, contoured cheekbones and flawless finishes were just a few of the trendsetting looks inspired by Youngblood's ultra-glamorous 2008 product launches.
Spring/Summer 2008
Inspired by the rich, beautiful colors of Morroco, the Moroccan Collection hit just the right note for Spring and Summer's sun-kissed look. Youngblood pays tribute to this bold collection in a dazzling palette of elegant colors perfect for all skin tones. Applied wet or dry, Kasbah Crushed Mineral Eyeshadow, in soft pink undertones and flecks of gold, really make the eyes stand out. Whether on holiday or at dinner with friends, Tangier Pressed Mineral Blush in a rich blend of coral, gold and a hint of red, beautifully highlight the apples of the cheeks, eyelids and décolleté. And those lips! Casablanca Lipstick offers a deep rouge undertone with twinkles of gold throughout. Want you're lips to catch everyone's eye? Use Sequin Lip Liner as a base for the lip to make the edges appear fuller and top with Marrakech Lip Gloss. Simply stunning!
Fall/Winter 2008
As the leaves began to fall and the temperature dipped, our new Pressed Individual Eyeshadows highlighted the eyes with a brilliant wash of colors in rich, jewel tones, warm earthy shades and shimmering rose-hued nudes. Housed in a slim, chic, magnetic mirrored compact, this paraben-free formula is perfect for application and touch-ups, anytime and anywhere. Black as Black Eye Liner, a dramatic, intense new shade, defines and enhances the eyes. This exclusive, long-lasting formula will create a daringly bold and captivating smoky eye. The highly pigmented reddish-brown Suede Eye Liner universally flatters and intensifies all eye color and complements the textures of the season. Pout Lip Liner, in a subtle mauve nude, accentuates and naturally defines lips for an irresistible, perfectly kissable pout. Poetic Lip Gloss in a tender, sheer plum rose, is a warm pearlescent shade reminiscent of romance and enchantment. |
