THIS SHADE MATCH IS…….

2025/2/13 Edited to

... Read moreOkay, so I finally got my hands on the much-talked-about Danessa Myricks Beauty Yummy Skin Blurring Balm Powder! I'd been seeing it all over my feed, and the claims of a 'blurring' and 'yummy' finish really had me intrigued. I specifically wanted to try Shade 9, as it seemed like a promising match for my skin tone based on online swatches. After a quick trip to Sephora, I was so excited to bring it home and put it to the test. My first impression upon opening the compact was how unique the texture felt. It’s not quite a powder, not exactly a cream, but a solid balm that melts beautifully under your fingertips or a brush. I decided to apply it with a dense foundation brush, swirling gently to pick up the product. It glided onto my skin effortlessly, and I immediately noticed a subtle but visible blurring effect, especially around my T-zone where I tend to have larger pores. It didn't feel heavy or cakey at all, which is a huge plus for me as I prefer a more natural, skin-like finish. Let's talk more about Shade 9. For me, this shade is a fantastic neutral-to-warm medium tone. I often struggle with foundations being too yellow or too pink, but Danessa Myricks Blurring Balm Shade 9 blended seamlessly into my complexion, almost disappearing into my skin. It provided a sheer to light coverage, enough to even out minor redness and give a perfected look without completely masking my natural skin. I think this shade would work well for many in the light-to-medium range who have a neutral or slightly warm undertone. If you're looking for something that just enhances your skin without being detectable, this could be your new best friend. Throughout the day, I was really impressed with its performance. It helped to keep my oiliness at bay without making my skin feel dry or tight. The blurring effect held up nicely, and I didn't experience any creasing or patchiness, even after several hours. I also experimented with using it both under and over my liquid foundation. Applied underneath, it created a beautiful, smooth canvas, and applied on top, it worked wonders for touch-ups, refreshing my look and re-blurring any areas that had started to shine. This versatility makes it a real multi-tasker in my makeup bag. For anyone considering trying the Danessa Myricks Beauty Yummy Blurring Balm, here are a few tips I picked up: A little goes a long way, so start with a small amount and build up if needed. It’s fantastic for those 'no-makeup makeup' days when you want to look polished without feeling like you're wearing a full face. If you have very dry skin, make sure to moisturize well beforehand, as it does have a mattifying effect. I also found that pressing it into the skin with a sponge or brush gave the most flawless, airbrushed finish. Overall, I'm genuinely thrilled with my Danessa Myricks Yummy Blurring Balm Powder Shade 9 purchase. It lives up to the hype for me, delivering a natural, blurring, and long-lasting finish. If you're on the hunt for a product that minimizes pores, controls shine, and evens out your complexion with a lightweight feel, I highly recommend checking this out, especially if you think Shade 9 might be your match at Sephora. It's definitely earned a permanent spot in my routine!

now that I found my correct shade, I can't put it down! It's so good... if you have dry skin, make sure you use your most hydrating skincare. i also use the moisture repair balm under the blurring balm powder

I was pleasantly surprised with the shade match and application of this cc cream by ELF cosmetics. 👉🏾 Shade: Deep 500 W UNDERTONE: Warm Golden 💅🏾 It melts into your skin. However, my favorite way to apply cc creams and tinted moisturizers are with my hands. I think it gets the best coverage
