DANESSA MYRICKS BALM POWDER - HOW TO USE + REVIEW | Maryam Maquillage 

THIS you gotta see to believe! I'M SHOCKED 😳

I'm in the IK and so far can only get the universal shade which i have been using as primer. And i sweat profusely regardless of the weather so i am constqntly wiping at my face. Yet make-up doesn't budge. Literally get compliments on my skin throughout the day. My make-up looks just as good at the end of the day as it did at the beginning. I now want to try other Danessa Myricks products for sure! Pricey but worth it

I love it! I got shade 5 and was playing around with different techniques. I wore the balm under my rare beauty foundation. For once, in my 20 years of wearing makeup, my sister actually complimented me and said my makeup looked nice. I was shocked 🥹🤣 it does have a petroleum smell for me, but it didn’t irritate my skin thankfully. Thank you for your review!

Literally I have thee most oily skin ever and my results were like yours!! It’s like the prayers have been answered!!!!!! I can actually go out without worrying about my face looking like I just dipped it in a pot of grease!

Danessa is doing the lords work !

wow this looks amazing on you!! 😍 i was surprised to see you look naturally glowy but NOT OILY after 10 hours!! this might be the ultimate no makeup, makeup product 😱

I have never been more excited for a Sephora order to be delivered. NEVER 🥰

I love this product, I used it for the first time yesterday shade 4 and under the new nars foundation and looks amazing. I have combination skin and this product made my skin looked matte and after wearing it for eight hours my skin got a little dewy but looked amazing. I never tried nothing like this product it did valanced my oils, I can’t even explain how great made my skin look. I’m very impressed.

THIS is the review for which I have been scouring RU-vid!! I couldn’t find a video that gave me a comparison btwn the shades so that I could actually find mine (I think I’m a 5 sun with 6 rising on the Danessa Myrick makeup-astro chart)! So thank you! P.S. I love how you used the lighter shade for an under eye concealer/highlighter #smart

I bought this product and have been checking out reviews from different Beauty Bloggers of all different racial and, ethnic background and I’ve seen it work on every skin type and color. I love it and use it daily! I’d love to hear your review on her Water Powder Serum. Great review and a truly great product!

Hi 👋 Maryam! I’m SO glad you reviewed this one! You have such a positive influence and I’m happy to see that thousands of people out there are going to see how beautifying this product is 🥰 I reviewed it last week and I was shocked at how light weight and blurring this magic balm was on my face ALL DAY! I even had the humble pleasure of having Danessa re-post my IG photo to her stories (about this product) ☺️🙀 I truly hope you enjoy it every day as much as I do. I think our natural oils allow the product to sit even better in the skin as the day progresses. No need for powder since it has such a light airy feel already. I think I may try shade 4 even though I’m slightly lighter complexion than yourself I do however think that shade 3 may be a tad light. 🤷‍♀️ Your skin looks flawless and I adore your camera quality to give an accurate representation! Great video as always chica 🥰

Mibe is on the way! Your 1st impression has me even more excited for it to come. Especially during summer months I look like I can sell oil right off my face, so excited for this product to change that!

This product looked INCREDIBLE on you! Wow! 😍😍🙌🏽🙌🏽

Yay! You (and Alicia) are my trusted sources; I’m so excited for this too! My T-zone thanks you. 🙌🏽✌🏽

WOW this product is a game changer!!!!! I’m definitely adding to my list. I’ve been loving a nice skin like finish 🥰

Ahhh I've been eagerly awaiting this review from you! I had been SO JAZZED for this release since it was announced, I picked the universal shade and a tinted shade on launch day. But I have to say I was really disappointed. I tried using this a hundred different ways and couldn't get it to work. And I don't mean that my expectations were super high and this was a slight let down. I mean, it was probably the worst my base had ever looked every single time I tried it. As a primer, it had a blurring effect, but remained too slippy. Anything layered on top wouldn't set, it all sort of combined into a thick and pastey mess. Reminded me of a texture between Elf Putty Primer and Benefit Porefessional. As a "foundation" on its own, again, it sets in the sense that the greasiness evaporates immediately and a velvety powder finish is left behind. But it remains flexible, and not in a way that I like for my base. It continues to slip slide around. It's like painting the walls of my house with pancake batter. Even if the layer is ultra thin, when the water evaporates out, all that's left is a powery finish that crumbles and flakes off. It doesn't set down like an eggshell finish paint that remains flexible but also doesn't lift up and move around. And I didn't find it to be very good at controlling oil or shine throughout the day either. The thinness of which this product needs to be applied and buffed in just didn't seem condusuve to keeping matte for longer periods of time. And as a touch up or finishing powder type product on top of any product... Just forget it. It's a pastey, gluggy, caked up mess. I've tried with various primers, without primers, different spf, different moisturizers, every kind of skin prep you could possibly imagine. My skin is relatively balanced but would lean more towards oily than dry. No patches, no flakes, no texture, pores not an issue. I wanted this to be the J.Lo triple threat base product of my dreams. But I don't think it performed on any level for me. A++++ for innovation but it was too good to be true for my skin, anyway. Really glad you loved it . Nothing better than discovering a product that gives us the skin fantasy we are all searching for. Thanks for your thorough and thoughtful review. Always appreciate your skill, attention to detail, and honesty!

The oily skin Gods have answered your calls !! I can’t wait to see and try this. I’m fair light. Kinda dry. Will see how this mature face #TeamTruth here we go 🐯. I’m 2 or 3 fair light neutral chest is cool. What’s combo huh ??

THIS IS SO INTERESTING!! I need this in my life. I wish this was sold in my country!! I want to test if it will last the weather in my tropical country

I tried this product and it is great! I wear shade #8 alone and the universal shade under my Pat McGrath foundation. It is amazing!❤️

Her balm contours are amazing. I love them❤️ just purchased this to try. You sold it

OMG flawless. You’re gorgeous. Smooth and clean and see your freckles. It’s great you have all shades. Just wondering if I use universal and add blush and contour how would it look especially after a few hours?! I’m so excited to buy it. Thank you for your honest reviews feedback

I am someone who can always appreciate a light hand when it comes to quantity of product put on the face BUT!… I wonder how the universal shade would perform with a heavier hand. 🤔 hmmmm I might have to buy my first product from this brand.. really loving shade 4 too. This looks so promising. Love love love new unique products like this. 🤩 so much 🤩 FUN

Need this and the new concealer.

Great review! I just bought 4 & 6 because I like the idea of doing that 2 tone look too

Can’t wait to try it! Thanks for your honest review 😊

Always a great review. I plan to buy this

I have shade 6 and it’s the best colour match i have ever owned!!

I love it “ I repeat I have not blotted “ 2x 😁🤗🤗 I love this balm powder is incredible

Ok.. I’m sold. You and Alicia are my go to’s because I know you both always come with 💯facts! This looks gorgeous on you! 😍❤️ How do you think this would hold up under a mask? I’m hoping to travel to Japan (🤞🏽for the June reopening) this fall and will definitely be wearing one and want something natural and mask transfer resistant.

This product is AMAZING! I purchased it before your review (which I very rarely ever do) and wore it to my 8 hr Sephora shift and all my coworkers were like your skin looks soo nice and it was this in shade 7. I wore it in shade 7 which there’s not many reviews on (if you wear Fenty 385, shade 7 is your shade) and used the yummy skin glow serum in shade juice boost as my primer. Chef’s kiss 💜 like you, I can’t wait to wear it again today to this baby shower I’m going to lol

Awesome.. Thanks for the review Maryam❤️

I’m so intrigued. I wonder how it would perform on my dry skin

I'd love to see you set your foundation with it

Literally ordered shade 5 while watching this video, it looked amazing on you!! I typically don’t wear any face/base makeup but this product looked too good. I can’t wait to try and report back 😊 Thank you Maryam!

Can you do another video using it as a primer and setting powder for different foundations please?

I got shade 3 and now you make me want to pick up 4 too! I have been really liking this product.

I'd love to see you apply it with a brush and or sponge and your favorite concealer.

How do you know what shade is right for you? Without buying a bunch of colours. It looks so good!

Same!! Miracle.

I'm intrigued, a need to try this product. Did you put any moisturizer on before you applied this?

I've been SO GOOD about not spending money on makeup lately... but I may have to treat myself to this lol. I'm oily and summer is coming so....👀

I want to love this so bad. I bought it as soon as it released. I have shade 5 and I’ve tried applying it with my fingers, sponge, brush…I’ve tried to pat it in instead of swiping. No matter how I use it-alone, under makeup, over makeup and no matter what, it’s patching. I don’t know what to do, because I’m oily and textured and I want to love it so bad! 😫

Thanks for the video. This balm is rather interesting. What do you think will it work for the normal to dry type skin? On your skin it is great.

I bought the universal shade first to try, and in LOVE with it!!! Your video was my reaction..."omg this is magic" lol Now I'm watching a bunch of review videos trying to figure out my shade 😂

Interesting, hope it wears well

team truth here!!!!!!

Love that shade 5 and shade 3. I wonder how to wear it with other base products. OMG , OH My Glam you know i have to get it. Can you use it with other products like as a powder. Maybe like a primer.

Wow I’m so happy for you l no your oily skin for me I’m not sure for my very dry skin have a nice and beautiful week bizouxxxxxxxxx de Montreal

How would this work as a under eye concealer?.. wow I gotta get my hands on this stuff.. I want them ALL

Did you try It as a setting product on a different base? It seems promising

What good does the universal tone do for you?

what shade is good for NC42 mac skintype

Linda Hallberg Cosmetics had this ingredient first in their plotting powder

I am dreaming of the day this is reformulated to live up to all this hype. I am oily and shiny an hour after careful skin prep AND best quality mattifying foundations and still had no luck with this. So disappointing. It constantly broke up on my face and didn’t stay cohesive, making me look patchy and my skin embarrassingly awful in just a few hours of wear.

Is there a mirror on the lid?

Did she use any spray to set it or just let be?

Okay I need this now 🤣

Please tell me, after using the yummy skin balm for a few years, do you still like it? 👍🏼👋🏼

Do you guys put it on before or after sunscreen? I usually put sunscreen on(CeraVe lightweight spf moisturizer), let it dry and then do makeup. But putting this balm on after sunscreen seems like it may pick up the spf like a cleansing balm? Idk what’s best

Oh I have shade 3 on the way now I’m almost sure I got the wrong shade!!!! 😭😭😭

Do you prefer this or the Patrick ta duo?

I’ve been using it every day but when I don’t I feel like my pores look awful and are oilier than ever 😞 does this clog pores or am I just used to the effects of it?

I don't know what i am doing wrong that it is not working out for me 😭😭

Do you use this before or after facial sunscreen?

Would this be bad for dry skin.?

I’m eating for mine to come in the mail

Yummy 😘

😘👍

Danessa Unfortunately it tends to create products more suitable for skin from combination to oily, terrible on dry skin. Shade ranges also tend to be dark and warm. 😢
