Hi there! A balm that cares and adds colour?
The YOUNIQUE BARE·YOU lip balm is presented by the brand as the MVP of your make-up bag: a lip care that goes beyond surface hydration, with a little touch of colour to enhance your lips naturally.
On paper, it is the ideal partner for a “no-makeup makeup” routine: a creamy texture, a soft, comfortable finish and a light peach-apricot scent.
The benefits: what Younique promises
- Hydration and nourishment: a formula enriched with shea butter, castor seed oil and safflower seed oil for hydrated, smooth lips.
- A creamy texture: it goes on easily, in one swipe, for soft, supple lips.
- No waxy feel: a lightweight formula that hydrates without a waxy or heavy feeling.
- A soft touch of colour: just enough to enhance your natural look, with a light peach-apricot scent.
The shades
- Spa Day: a light pink.
- Sunday Brunch: a gentle mauve.
- Quick Getaway: a warm beige.
My review of the BARE·YOU lip balm
What I like is the care-and-colour duo: shea butter to nourish, castor and safflower oils for hydration, and only a touch of tint. According to the brand, the formula is made in Italy to European standards, vegan-friendly (with a synthetic beeswax) and cruelty-free.
In the results quoted by Younique, 97% of participants said their lips felt instantly hydrated and smoother after applying it, and 88% that the balm stayed comfortable to wear, without feeling waxy or heavy (results vary from person to person). For colour on lips and cheeks, have a look at the multi-purpose lip and cheek stick BARE YOU YOUNIQUE too.
How to use it
- Pick your shade: Spa Day, Sunday Brunch or Quick Getaway.
- Apply: straight onto your lips, in one swipe.
- Add more if you like: a second layer for slightly more visible colour.
- Keep it handy: in your make-up bag or handbag, to nourish your lips again during the day.
My tip: in a thin layer, it is a discreet tinted balm for every day. To change the finish, have a look at the YOUNIQUE Perfect Pout lip plumper.
Why I recommend it
Because it is a simple care step that brings comfort and a touch of colour without weighing your lips down. 💜
