In its ongoing support of national Breast Cancer Awareness month, Youngblood Mineral Cosmetics will donate to the Dr. Susan Love Research Foundation a portion of its proceeds from sales of Crushed Mineral Blush ($22.00 MSRP; 0.10 oz) in Dusty Pink, Sherbet and Tulip.
Founded in 1996, Youngblood is the premier brand for the finest mineral cosmetics. Products are made without talc, oil, parabens, artificial fragrances or dyes. The Dr. Susan Love Research Foundation is an organization that works to eradicate breast cancer, and improve the quality of women’s health through innovative research, education and advocacy.
“Dr. Susan Love and her team stand for many of the same principles our company upholds, including not testing on animals,” says President and CEO, Pauline Youngblood, who is a breast cancer survivor herself. “We admire their vision and are proud to support them in their goals.”
Crushed Mineral Blush is highly pigmented to give cheeks and temples a natural-looking flush with buildable coverage. The loose minerals can also be used on eyes and lips. The three shades work on all skin tones: Dusty Pink is a sweet shell pink; Sherbet is a gold-laced pink-peach (and a top seller); and Tulip is a sheer baby doll pink.
“Sales of the three shades of Crushed Mineral Blush will help Dr. Susan Love Research Foundation continue its important mission of finding an end to this disease,” adds Pauline.
Proceeds of Dusty Pink, Sherbet and Tulip will be donated beginning October 1, 2012, and are found at ybskin.com; NewBeauty at Fred Segal in Santa Monica, California; Henri Bendel in New York; select spas and salons; and by calling (800) 216-6133.
