Youthforia proves effective for many reviewers: its BYO color-changing blush consistently delivers a natural, dewy flush and versatile lip-cheek color, while fans praise fun, thoughtful packaging. Reviews also note weaknesses: the oil formula can feel heavy, leak, transfer, or pill for oily skin and some users report odd smells or breakouts from primers.

Ok I love the BYO BLUSH Color Changing Blush Oil. I actually primarily use it for lip color, but love the versatility of being able to use it as blush as well. My only complaint about the product is the packaging. I'm not sure if it's just mine or it was a flaw of the product, but it has to be stored upright, otherwise it will leak! I bought another product – the dewy lip gloss – and found it to be super sticky and drying. I barely used it after I bought it, which is a bummer because I had great success with the blush oil!

I got an email that the brand is closing, which was a little sad since I do like the products I've tried. I have the blush oil and the lip gloss. The packaging is super fun if you have more than one since the packaging is magnetic and they can stack. I have had some trouble with the application of the blush oil if I only use my fingers. The gloss is good, but on the sticky side. Overall, I think this was a really innovative brand at least initially with the ph color changing products, but that's now been copied across the beauty industry.

I absolutely love Youthforia's PH changing blush oil. It's lightweight, melts into the skin, and the color stays for a long time on my fair skin, I rarely have to re-apply. I love that it's a lip and cheek product. It truly is my daily hero product - if I do nothing else, I use this! I think the packaging is really cute, and the brand voice is also just FUN.

I purchased their PH changing blush serum and LOVE how natural of a flush it gives me and also adds some glow. Really cool product and their packaging is also really unique.

I bought the BYOB for my daughter and ended up keeping it. Love this blush and looks great in my mature skin (I’m 51)

I live fun, new brands especially in the beauty world but I also feel like everything is marketed for Gen Z and Millenials. I get it but it’s hard sometimes

This brands mission and concept is really what stands out to me. My favorite product by far is the Pregame Primer. Yes it does have an off putting smell but it doesn’t last. The way this primer sits on my skin and works with my makeup is great. I also have a clear conscious of knowing it is protecting my skin. The setting spray is also so good. I find that it helps smooth all my makeup together. I love how it too has protecting properties. The blush oil, in my opinion, is decent but I don’t find myself reaching for it.

Okay I love that I can go to bed feeling pretty or the day that I’m so tired that I can’t even wash my makeup off I don’t have to worry about that. But the blush oil is a little bit too early for me, so I only went to bed. So I can feel like I have life in me .

Got the BYO oil blush. Used it once and it started leaking everywhere staining my makeup bag and hands. Can’t find where the leak is coming from. Not practical at all

Youth Foria Dewy Gloss is super hydrating. It’s plant based and comes in several colors. The packaging is really cool and unique and the applicator made it easy to apply. My lips weee hydrated and dewy all day. I like that it’s not a glossy gloss but more of a dew lip. It’s a bit pricey for a lip product but it’s quality so I can see why.

The TINTED LIQUID BLUSH is very very pigmented. Compared to the glossier blush, a miniscule amount of this product goes a long way. The texture is thicker than I would expect, so it seems that using a brush or sponge is better than your fingers. It also doesnt spread as easily as the glossier blush - but feels very nourishing on the skin. The pink "lets go party" is a vibrant cool pink. The color is almost doll like

I really love this blush oil. Will purchase again.
Avoid if you're oily!! I want to love this brand but unfortunately I've been pretty unimpressed, especially for the price. Of the 3 products I've tried 2 are a big miss (the primer and blush oil) and 1 is good (the lip gloss). Off the bat, the primer smells like tahini which is a bit off-putting. It feels very heavy on the skin despite it's claim of being lightweight and absorbing quickly. If I put foundation or concealer over it, my skin feels very gunky. I have a similar problem with the BYO blush oil. It's just very heavy and moves around on my skin very easily compared to a blush (even a cream blush). The "color changing" piece of it also feels very gimmicky and makes it hard to apply and know how much to put on. For background, I have oily skin so if you also have oily or combo skin too, these might not work for you either. The lip gloss I have is really pretty. It's moisturizing and not sticky at all, my hair never gets stuck in it. I also like that the applicator doesn't pull out a big glob of gloss, I have small lips so it's easier to apply. But again for the price, there are lip glosses I prefer more. Positives: The packaging and website are super cute. I have a lot of respect for the founder and think it's really cool that she went on Shark Tank but unfortunately none of these products feel very innovative and none of them work for oily skin (except the lip gloss).
Tried BYO Blush when it first came out, it was an okay experience, it doesn't blend really well. I don't wear it ever, as there are better liquid blushes on the market.
Excited for new products! I got their primer, setting spray, and blush and I love all three ☺️ I have very acne prone skin and felt like none of them contributed to any break outs or congestion. Only thing is the color changing blush began color changing/getting goopy in the container after a while
It's cool that the blush turns into a color to match your skin tone, it gave me a brighter pink than I usually use and I liked it! It's very buildable, so it takes a bit longer to 1) wait for the color to change, and 2) add more as needed. This, of course, is compared to the super pigmented liquid blushes I normally use a tiny dab of (and sometimes can't get off my face when I dab too much). I have very oily skin, so it was beautifully dewey at first but then added to my face oils and thus made transfer a bit more of a problem. Would recommend to dry skin and/or to powder over.
Really enjoy the "pH changing" blush- such a fun switch up and a way to make the makeup feel customized. After a few uses the liquid ends up turning the pink-hue it would be when used on your skin. This may be able to be avoided by applying to a brush or sponge (vs finger or cheek). I enjoy the natural color it brings to my cheeks along with the cute packaging and applicator. I'd love to try their setting spray at some point.
The innovation in this product and how well it compliments my skin tone is amazing!

It is not 2016 anymore. The blushes are so boring. We all know ph changing make up is a scam. The blushes are hard to blend and not the right consistency. I prefer the benetint if you are looking for a more liquid blush or the rare beauty or said liquid blushes if you want a more cream consistency. The shade range of foundation is disgusting. You cannot release 15 shades and have only 3 be for darker complexions. And then they want to claim that they were going to add in darker tones at a later date?? In my eyes, that means that Youthforia sees their Black and Brown customers as an afterthought or as less important than their white customers. You cannot release a foundation line just for white people and then defend that decision on social media. You either release 15 shades that are evenly distributed across all skin tones, and say that more undertones and/or shades will be released in the future. Or you wait for more funding, customer interest, etc. to release a foundation with an actual shade range.
