This product was a freaking GAME CHANGER for me! I did an 8 hr wear test and had ZERO oils come through 😲 I used Shade Universal, 1, and 6 for bronzer, then went back in with Universal to set. I have never seen such an oil controlling yet naturally glowy product. Can't wait to see how you like it! This looked amazing after all day, as if I had just applied it 🙌
so, Danielle, I hear it's just you and me who love this one. BUT SEE, YOU DID A WEAR TEST!!! I don't think the haters have done a wear test. It needs time to really soak in.
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty haha well I agree that wear testing AND application style are major factors with this one imo. This product is going to save my skin especially in the summer. 100% agree this product looked better and better as the day went on. BUT, I also tried a damp sponge, and that was by far my favorite way of application, especially where I was dehydrated. SO smooth!!! I freaking LOVE LOVE LOVE this stuff! So glad we can enjoy it together at least 😊 Yummy serum didn't work for me at all, but THIS...pfft. incredible! 👌❤
I watched your video and was impressed with how it worked for you. Thanks to you, I could see No1 would be too light for me. However, I'm much older, I don't know how it will work on my lines and texture.
You have me intrigued by this product. I'm 42 with oily skin and almost nothing controls my oils for long. Also, it often seems like foundations most people dislike are wonderful for me and beloved ones are a mess on me!
Letty, you know what? I think you might like this one. I have very normal skin but I hear it works wonders to control oils. If you try it, let me know. :)
You are such a joy, Rebecca! Your honest reviews are so appreciated! I love it. Might try DM balm to powder if it doesn’t settle into the various lines on my “older” skin! I enjoy a light coverage. Shade 3 alone looked beautiful on you! 🙏
what shade are you normally in foundation? like mac or glossier? trying to figure out if shade three will also be too light for me? but honestly, shade 3 looks good on you! and I prefer the side with only the shade 3
OooOoo I love shade 3 on you more so than Universal. I’m so here for you testing it on future videos. I think I will grab this. Bummer about JR foundation. I’ll still grab it but more in the winter when my skin is dryer.
Oh my goodness...could you read my mind when I really took a good look in the mirror before applying this? I have just little red bumps here and there. It's just SO moisturizing that, yes, the Jones Road is a winter foundation OR no added moisturizer at night or in the morning. eek. But this new Yummy powder is lovely. And I like the shade 3 too!
This looks great on you. I like the side of shade 3 by itself. I ordered universal and shade 7 . I plan on wearing 7 as a foundation. And universal for my makeup no makeup days with just concealer under the eyes.
I am very excited to try this product!! I lean more oily and this is formulated to help manage oil! Yah! My decision is the universal shade or a color! Rebecca - did you test it with a mask? I need to wear one all day for work (I’m in healthcare) so I would love to know if you had much transfer!
Well Aggie, I can ABSOLUTELY answer this for you. I read your comment, put on the mask next to my desk here and finished serving dinner to my kids while wearing a mask. They already think I'm crazy so it's fine. Haha. NO TRANSFER. Now I've had it on for HOURS and HOURS but it's still on my face and there was zero transfer. I can imagine if I'd put the mask on immediately after putting on the balm, there would likely be some but, hours later, still on my face and no transfer, happy to report.
Good morning my dear. It looked super natural on you, Rebecca. I preferred shade 3 on you better, on its own. Dang, I’m nervous now. I purposely ordered the universal shade to use as a primer and didn’t order a color shade to use as a foundation, because I wasn’t sure about the performance. I’m glad I didn’t. Hey, I received Wayne’s foundation and powder. I haven’t tried it out on my face YET, but I did test it on my hand. It was a perfect match. I can’t wait to wear it💃. Thanks for the video, Rebecca🥰💜.
Hello Danielle! Oh you'll LOVE the Wayne. Will be interested in hearing what your thoughts are on the universal shade of this product. I am not sure how I feel about that for non oily skin. But the shaded product I'm really enjoying.
I agree Rebecca, I prefer just the shade 3...think I'll pick this one up when it reaches here in the UK, thanks so much for the review 😀 lots of love xxx
Wow!! That looks so beautiful!!! It leaves such a beautiful finish. You have me teetering on the edge of ordering….let me take a look at the shades…just a look 🤣
Tracie! My first reaction this morning wasn't the same as this afternoon. It really kind of becomes a second skin as the day goes on. It's super pretty.
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty Well I can say it is intriguing. I can definitely say it’s more appealing than I originally thought. I could definitely see using it either over foundation or as my one and done.
Hi - Thank you for doing a 6-hour wear-test of 1, 2 and 3 layers with this new foundation balm. Like you, I prefer the 1-layer for “everyday” coverage. Thanks for the wear-test. DM should pay you.
Hello Jocelyne! Thank you so much for your incredibly kind comment. I am really enjoying this stuff especially as a break from the heavier Wayne Goss, which I do still love, and the overly moisturizing Jones Road which is lovely but I think my skin is crying out for a break. The balm to powder was nice!
Woooooooohoooooo!!! The confetti and the horns are baaaack!!! 🎉🎉🎊🎊 I agree with you. I like shade 3 by itself the best. I need more moisture than a powder finish, so I still have my eye on the Jones Road. I am on the drier side and have been craving a lotttt of moisture lately. I hear what you’re saying in terms of almost “too much moisture” on the JR (if I heard you correctly; if not, please correct me!!). Well, I still kind of want that. Thank you, my friend, for another more-than-awesome review!!!! 🤗🤗🥰🥰🥰💖
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty Ohhh, I see!! And that’s exactly what I always do. Take off one deluxe moisturizing product and add another that’s even worse!!! Noted. I must pay more attention to that, or else I will end up as a grease ball with drier skin-if that’s even possible!! 😂😅🥰🥰🥰💖
@@MissBeeeBeee ohhh totally. I understand. They say our grease and our dryness aren’t related. But that’s like a skin Rubiks cube! That being says hah I really do think the Jones road product is for you.
Interesting! I think I'll try the 3! I think I'm about your shade but maybe a touch lighter? This looks pretty neat and sort of what I thought the Tatcha balm would be! Hmmm, lots of think about, haha! Thank you so much for this review!
It’s actually really nice. I am now hearing that a lot of reviewers didn’t like it but I wonder if they did a wear test. Because, this morning, I didn’t see what was so interesting about it and felt it lacked in something. But as the day wore on I started enjoying it more and more as it really became a second skin.
Trying to decide on whether to get this one. I live in Southern California too and thought it might be good in summer humidity. I'm really confused about the shades. I have fair skin, but No 1 looks too pale. I watched a video where a woman used No2, the shade I thought would be right for me, and it looked pasty on her, not to mention how it clung badly to her combo skin. Did No3 dry down darker on you? I was thinking No3 could be right, but I'm lighter than you. Did you add bronzer? I couldn't see if No2 oxidized on the woman in the video because she hated it so much she didn't give it a wear test. It looked like she loaded an awful lot of product on as well and expected it to provide full coverage. I will be interested to see how the No3 wears on you when you use it alone.
Hello elizabeth. Yes, that’s what I’m finding. The reviews that didn’t like it most did not give it a wear test. Obviously I haven’t seen every review but you know what I mean. I wasn’t impressed with it when I first put it on either. But I also didn’t cake it on. It needs to be put on very lightly and built. It oxidized a tad, got a teeny bit darker and, yes, I added a little bit of bronzer and a little bit of blush and then it looked fine. It’s actually just a tad bit too light for me so I think the three would work for you. If you decide to try it, just a little bit and build it and then let it sit. give it a half hour, give it 45 minutes, give it an hour and a half, seriously, put your other makeup on over it and see what you think in a little bit as it wears.
Now that I have mine, I will check out other reviews. Did they wear test? The reason that I ask is that this morning, I wasn't thrilled. this afternoon, tho, I loved it. It really needed that time.
I am a senior lady but have taken care of my skin all my life. I used the WTF lightly and applied this product (#3) with a foundation brush and Wow! This product is so unique and it set down to a gorgeous finish. It’s a keeper for sure.
Hello Linda! I am finding that, with the JR foundation, I can even forgo my night and morning moisturizer. In fact, I have to or I'm OVER moisturized. It's definitely a godsend for those with dry skin whereas, this new Danessa is really great for those that can go a bit more oily.
@@lindaoffshore Oh for SURE. It takes it a bit of time to meld into my normal skin, quicker if I moisturize first and, for oily skin, right away. But works for ALL. Absolutely agreed.
Interesting what you said about the Jones Road WTF maybe breaking you out. I also don’t have a problem with breakouts except when I wore the Wayne Goss cream foundation. I’m waiting on the Jones Road, but haven’t pulled the trigger on the Danessa Myricks. The creams/balms may or may not be good for me.
Hello Rabbi! What’s happening with me is that I have very normal but what I like to call “suggestible “skin. If I use way too much moisturizer, I break out. If I use no moisturizer, I can go dry. When I use the Jones Rd., Foundation and continue with my normal morning and night routine, it’s too much moisturizer and I am getting little breakouts. No good. And I have no desire to really change my morning and night skincare routine so it puts me in a bit of a predicament. I can see that applying the Wayne product could also be very heavy on skin and also cause breakouts. And, who knows! I have been exclusively using the JONES Road product after the Wayne product so maybe my skin is just throwing up a white flag and it’s done with anything heavier or very moisturizing. Maybe I need to go back to some traditional foundations for a week or so! So you bring up a very good point.
📣🎉🎉 Time for the complexion confetti & air horns...and I'm here for it Rebecca 😉 I agree with you as I like the side with just the #3 balm. It seemed to cover better so I don't know why you'd need the universal primer? You would think they'd work better together. I just used my new Dior Airflash foundation on Sunday...MIND BLOWN!! 😃💓🎉🎉
That Dior Airflash is so tremendously good. Just so so so good. I guess someone would use the universal shade here as a primer for regular foundation? Dunno. My favorite is the shade three.
I found that the Universal shade was more hydrating and primer like than Shade 1 and 6. But that was just my experience. I found they layered wonderfully however worked well on its own too. I have been wearing this product every single day. I am obsessed it is so unique 👌
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty hey Rebecca this is off topic but have you by chance seen the Chanel at Macy's commercial with the products dancing around to "Groove is in the Heart"? It's so silly but it reminds me of you & your Jellycat lippie and nail polish...i 💓it!! 😂
I totally agree with the number 3 by itself. It looks so natural! Do you know if it has fragrance. I thought about getting the Jones Road but decided against it due to herbal scent!
Hi dear Rebecca, watched already a part another time, and now the rest, love this very good, very honest and detailed review, all looks beautiful on you!!!🤩🤩🤩🤩I ordered shade 1, 2, 3 and 4, they came today, so i swatched on my hand only, we're almost going away for a short break, don't know when i can use it, but they swatch great!!! The lighter shades i bought for concealer purpose. Maybe the transparent shade is also a good idea!!! Shade 3 is very close to my skintone, and love to mix with shade 4 in summer i think, i don't tan easy. Other DM i don't have, well i had the cream bronze/contour product but was not over the moon, love most my TF/CT/Rare in this category i must say. But the other products look very beautiful as well!!! Thanks and have a wonderful day!!!😘😘😘😘
Annemarie! You can not only mix the shades but you can also highlight and bronze with them. For summer months, these are wonderful for any humidity or summer rain. And yes, exactly, to conceal as well. Very multi purpose. I would love to hear your thoughts, only when you have time and after you’ve experimented with the different shades. Hoping you’re well and the asthma isn’t acting up right now. I know it’s a struggle. So fortunate to have you here and your support is very meaningful.
I received the universal shade yesterday. I wanted to try it before getting a color with coverage. I like it but today will be my first day of wear. I can’t wait to try it as an eye primer. I’m unsure which color to get if I get one. I was thinking 1 but since seeing this that will probably be too light. I am as light as you but cool toned, very pink.
You might even be the three shade as a comment just told me that, on Danessa's website, there are shade suggestions based on the serum foundation shade you wear and, by that chart, I am a four in this. The three works but is a tad bit light so the four recommendation makes sense. This means you are likely a three like me or MAYBE a two but def not a one, agreed.
I'm not completely sold. Can't say it makes your face look that different, though could see where the line was w/o it. I got a very nice sample from Sephora for 100 points and wanted to try it... talking Universal. I'm really most curious on the shaded balms. Have you tried the Lancome Priming Serum "smoothing primer" in the white case? U can buy a refill. I bought it impulsively as read good things about it. Seems they are both very similar tho sure they have their own special ingredient. I don't see any real difference between the two but the compact with mirror is a plus. Good to know it looked darker and you thought it would be too light. Thanks for doing this .... I don't care for very wet primers or sticky ones so was curious how this works.
Thank you so much for your comments. I’m so grateful for all the information as it is helpful for this community. I have not tried the Lancome priming serum but it sounds really interesting. I don’t know how I missed that release!
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty wouldn't ever have known but saw it asked what it was ... may have seen it at Nordstrom then Macys.... I have a sample of the Universal can't really tell the difference but supposedly Lancome has Serum in it and good reviews (and a mirror lol) so took a chance... will see if I order a refill or not. Am curious how they differ... has small bit of tint maybe
Would you recommend the balm for someone with dry skin? How do you like the brush u used to apply the balm? The fan brush looks like it fits into nooks and crannies of the face. Thank you ❤
this is a LOVELY product. Danessa really does complexion so well. I like the Yummy Skin Tint a BIT more just because of ease of use. the brush is wonderful. Yes, a fan brush for this is just what the doctor ordered, so to speak.
Loved the video , I can’t decide on this, I love the side with just shade 3 looks healthy, I wonder if it holds up to the heat and humidity here in Florida my foundations 8 love are powder because they are so easy but with my aging 56 skin with wrinkles I wonder how it would work? Does it feel heavy or like nothing there?🥰🥰
Really formulated with oily skin in mind and nothing makes that a reality like heat and humidity so I think this would be a good choice for the weather coming up this summer!!! And it is super light. Definitely a "nothing on" feeling.
So I just got the WG cream foundation, with powder. I have combo skin, live in NY, where summers are humid. I do find that i need to moisturize well with it or my skin looks dry. This new DM balm/powder…how does it compare? It sounds like it works well with oily/combo skin but how different is it after powdering the WG cream? Like I need this!!! Love your reviews!
Hello Shari! I like this new Danessa product. I really do. Some are finding fault with it but I feel like, especially if you moisturize well or tend to have a oily or a combo complexion, it’s really good. The Wayne product, on the other hand, nobody has trouble with, every skin type can wear it and it is equally flawless across the board. So, you have chosen the correct one of the two!
Very beautiful on you! Interested to hear your comparisons to the WG cream foundation. Similarities and differences in terms of finish and how it wears on the skin? I'm intrigued by this new balm, but not sure if I need it...
Ooooh I'm SUPER interested in this😍 cause my oily t zone wants to stay oily no matter what! But dayum she needs to put out more shades cause I need a light medium with yellow undertone and there's only a light medium with neutral undertone (sold out at the moment) and those tend to make me look ashy 🙄 Thanks for your great review❣❣❣💕🤗💕
Hello Simo! Yes, the shades are baffling and there are jumps in between like crazy. I hope she decides to put out more. I feel like the shade I chose is a bit too pale for me but my next choice would be WAY too dark so I bronzed and such and it just kind of became fine. So...yes, you'd have to go with the neutral. I do not think it would go ashy but I definitely see your point AND your hesitation because you can't return. Eek. That's too much of a risk, frankly!
I bought this one! Still waiting for it to arrive, of course with international shipping etc, but I'm really looking forward to trying it. It really sounds amazing on paper!
I forgot to ask you about using primer under this? Did you try it with different primers? Wondered if the finish and texture would be effected by primers
YES! ❤️ I have used the Yummy skin one under it that's very dewy and it was lovely. Nothing super special about that primer so it means any would be good!
I have been looking at this and also the new Patrick Ta cream foundation. I watched your reviews on both so now my question is which did you prefer? We have same skin types and shade twins on a lot of foundation so dying to hear your thoughts!
Hello Mary! I think the Danessa Myricks is easier to wear. What do I mean by that? The Patrick Ta is beautiful but it’s on your skin and you know it’s on your skin. It’s thick and a little bit heavy. It looks beautiful and it wears very well and would be great if you were taking a lot of photos that day. But for an every day running around working, errands etc. I think the Danessa is just an easier one because it’s cream to powder and Patrick’s is cream to… Cream ha ha
Hi Rebecca! I like the way your skin looks -after you applied this product! It looks smooth and blurred.. I’m intrigued!! My question would be should I get the translucent or a shade? Which do you prefer-the yummy serum or this balm? (When you’ve decided) I’m a real minimalist when it comes to foundation and rarely wear it- tinted sunscreen and sometimes the Shiseido skin tint with spf are the most I wear.
Hello Laura! In terms of skin tints, I really like the Yummy serum but there are better skin serums, tinted ones, out there. As for this product, I MUCH MUCH prefer the tinted shade over the universal. For SURE.
@@debhauer3342 So interesting. They appear to be mid to high level pricing and for all skin types and ages. But I've honestly never heard of them and, truly, not to brag, but that's rare. I wonder if they're good.
Hi Rebecca! Great video and so informative..! First your experience with the JR. I was considering after your initial review video but was on the fence because I remember the BB extra tinted balm which was too moisturizing, so even though it was different I thought it may still not work. After hearing how you have been breaking out, I paused on purchasing it because products that are too moisturizing can break me out as well. As far as the Danessa Myricks, your review was very helpful. I ordered the shade 7 based on my serum foundation color so curious as to how I’ll like it. Question.. it looks like shade 4 was the recommended shade on DM website based on your foundation shade. What made you select 3 over 4? At first, I think I agreed with you.. 3 did appear a bit too light but interestingly seemed to adjust. Once you completed your application, it looked beautiful in indoor and outdoor lighting. Would you say this could be due to oxidation? I ask because I wonder if you went with the next deeper shade (choosing based on foundation like I did), if it may have become too deep for you as the day went on…?
So much to say in answer to this wonderful comment, Adrienne! I did not know they did suggestions on shades based on the serum foundation shade. Had I known that I likely would have purchased the four and maybe it would be better! Honestly. The three worked but it was definitely too light until I applied the rest of my makeup. It could likely also be a bit of oxidation. As it sat and became one with my skin a bit more, I didn't notice the stark pale look. Haha. And once makeup was on, it was really nice. But could I likely use the four instead? Probably, frankly. As for the Jones Road product, it is EXACTLY like the old school Bobbi Brown version and, if you also continue your normal skincare routine, as I did, it started to break me out. So I'd have to skip my moisturizer day and night if I am using the JR foundation and, frankly, I ENJOY my morning and night skincare. It works for me. So....yeah, the JR foundation and I are gonna have issues. Sigh.
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty I understand, very interesting experience with the DM. I’m anxiously awaiting the arrival my balm powder, just the name alone has me curious. I like the versatility, that it can be worn alone or under or over foundation. The idea of purchasing this in multiple shades to bronze and/or contour, highlight, etc. is fascinating although I probably won’t buy any more shades as I have enough makeup as it is. lol. Which brings me to the Jones Road. I guess my initial thought to buy was out of interest because it is yet another new product to try.. but realistically, I really don’t need., especially since there is a high probability it won’t work so well for me. Plus, it makes no sense for me to buy each and every new foundation that comes out. I only have 1 face. Haha! That is why your reviews are so great. The info you provide and insight from personal experience is really helpful with decision making! Thanks so much! :-)
Hello Adrienne! Definitely. The JR has a VERY specific customer in mind and it is not for everyone. It really isn't. I know everyone says just powder it. But that's like going to lunch with this one friend of mine who orders the salad with salmon but asks if she could have chicken instead of salmon and could she switch the dressing and what kind of lettuce do they use. You know?
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty I absolutely know what you mean. exactly. lol!! I received my DM balm powder today and really like the way it feels. You were right, it is light in texture and gives a soft blurring effect to the skin. I got shade 7 (15N in the DM serum foundation) and shade wise is pretty perfect. I’ll probably wear the balm powder separate from the serum foundation since I have the tinted powder because when I layered them, it was too much coverage for me. Then again.. I may have just applied too much. A little does go a long way with her foundation. ;-)
@@adriennej859 oh absolutely. It’s all about getting the ratio down. So true. I wore the shade three alone today and I love it. Going to try it tomorrow with her yummy liquid primer under. Was going to do that today and forgot. Haha. So me to do that.
Too soon to really tell but I think this balm as it's more innovative and the serum is good but there's SO many of those on the market. Together, combined, the coverage is higher tho.
Ideally this would be light and could be worn over a traditional foundation to add coverage BUT, having said that, it's definitely buildable and I feel I can get a medium coverage out of it.
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty so I'm watching your other DM foundation video do you think the no color balm w/be in place of powder over the top or should I get a colored one? UGH need all the things!
@@reneegrace7965 I think I have the answer. I would definitely get the colored version. Why? Because it doesn’t add too much coverage. And then, later on, on a day when you feel like it, you could just put it over a little bit of moisturizer and have a no make up look. In other words, the powder with shade will have a little bit more versatility. It’s not so much coverage that you would feel you need both.
I’m shade 3 but bought 2 and six so I can mix, highlight and bronze. Tried it today briefly. Jury is still out. I need to try this a few more ways. I will say it is different, so you gotta give it to her there. Upon initial application it looked good, but it did settle into pores after a while. Although I didn’t do any skin prep at all. So I definitely need more time to test, but I’ll have a review on this one soon too!
Initially I didn’t love it. At all. I was unimpressed. An hour later, I liked it. Two hours later I loved it. Will be interesting to hear what you think as you experiment with it more.
Oh good, Sheila! I was going to send you a note to listen for your shout out! It was just so kind of you. Exactly ha ha. All of that digital confetti and all of the brooms needed to sweep it up are getting pricey! Too funny.
Hahaha. Maybe if my camerawoman (me) were a bit better at getting good angles and my lighting crew (me and me) were a bit more professional....good help is hard to find!
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty Oh, you’re good at camera work, but technology needs to ramp up a bit if we’re going to be able to feel whatever a person in a video feels. 😊 You’re awesome!
I hadn't watched any other reviews. You know what, tho, Belinda? I would have given it a bad review this morning too. Wear testing it made all the difference. That being said, if you can happily save money, I am ALL FOR THAT!! Money saved is a good thing!
I had a TERRIBLE experience with the Yummy foundation but this...omg...this was a GAME CHANGER for me. I did an 8 hr wear test using it multiple ways and just like Rebecca said, I totally agree this product looks better and better as the day goes on. I hope this product never gets discontinued. Also I might add, i HIGHLY preferred a sponge application over a brush. My skin was flawless at the end of the day, even better than at first. Just sharing my experience hope you don't mind! 💕
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty I just have SO much here to use that I currently love 😊 it sounds interesting, I’m just nervous after how much I disliked the yummy foundation. I’m glad that you are enjoying this new product tho!
That's exactly what I thought, too, Aileen. I need to really moisturize or do a dewy spf first. But.....oh my GOD, I have been wearing the Jones Road SO much....AND moisturizing in the morning and night and I need a BREAK from moisture. Weird thing to say....but YOU'LL understand with oily skin. I just....TOO MUCH moisture. My skin is FREAKING out and erupting.
Ohhhhhhhh this is not for me. First, my initial thought is the clear one looks like when my grandmother used to save bacon grease. Lol. Nope nope I haven’t figured out you would set your makeup with it. I’m kinda creeped out by it lol
Ooooooh. I think I need to buy this 😜🤣. I want to buy everything you review :) I think it will be great to touch up my makeup when I’m working my 24 hr shift. There. That’s my excuse for buying this. Every shift is different ( sometimes I have to wash my face and completely start over. 🫤) but I think this will really be great. Thanks for another awesome review
This product was a freaking GAME CHANGER for me! I did an 8 hr wear test and had ZERO oils come through 😲 I used Shade Universal, 1, and 6 for bronzer, then went back in with Universal to set. I have never seen such an oil controlling yet naturally glowy product. Can't wait to see how you like it! This looked amazing after all day, as if I had just applied it 🙌
Shade 3 looks so good on you!
so, Danielle, I hear it's just you and me who love this one. BUT SEE, YOU DID A WEAR TEST!!! I don't think the haters have done a wear test. It needs time to really soak in.
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty haha well I agree that wear testing AND application style are major factors with this one imo. This product is going to save my skin especially in the summer. 100% agree this product looked better and better as the day went on. BUT, I also tried a damp sponge, and that was by far my favorite way of application, especially where I was dehydrated. SO smooth!!! I freaking LOVE LOVE LOVE this stuff! So glad we can enjoy it together at least 😊 Yummy serum didn't work for me at all, but THIS...pfft. incredible! 👌❤
I watched your video and was impressed with how it worked for you. Thanks to you, I could see No1 would be too light for me. However, I'm much older, I don't know how it will work on my lines and texture.
Thanx for your input Danielle❣sounds REALLY awsome 😍😍😍
I like the side with just shade three , same as you and I also like light coverage this is beautiful and so intriguing!!
Kristina, intriguing is the absolute perfect word. It just kind of....it's not even that it becomes a powder...it just kind of becomes a second skin.
You have me intrigued by this product. I'm 42 with oily skin and almost nothing controls my oils for long. Also, it often seems like foundations most people dislike are wonderful for me and beloved ones are a mess on me!
Letty, you know what? I think you might like this one. I have very normal skin but I hear it works wonders to control oils. If you try it, let me know. :)
You are such a joy, Rebecca! Your honest reviews are so appreciated! I love it. Might try DM balm to powder if it doesn’t settle into the various lines on my “older” skin! I enjoy a light coverage. Shade 3 alone looked beautiful on you! 🙏
How kind of you, Irene! So appreciative of your support!! I didn’t have it settle into fine lines. I’m relieved!
So, so happy to see you reviewing this!! TY, beautiful babe!
Thank you for being here to share it with me, Samantha!
what shade are you normally in foundation? like mac or glossier? trying to figure out if shade three will also be too light for me? but honestly, shade 3 looks good on you! and I prefer the side with only the shade 3
OooOoo I love shade 3 on you more so than Universal. I’m so here for you testing it on future videos. I think I will grab this. Bummer about JR foundation. I’ll still grab it but more in the winter when my skin is dryer.
Oh my goodness...could you read my mind when I really took a good look in the mirror before applying this? I have just little red bumps here and there. It's just SO moisturizing that, yes, the Jones Road is a winter foundation OR no added moisturizer at night or in the morning. eek. But this new Yummy powder is lovely. And I like the shade 3 too!
What an interesting product! Ill have to decide between the Wayne goss and this one to try. Balm just sounds intriguing
I think the Wayne is a bit more perfecting and versatile, Julia. But this is lovely.
I am anxious to try it with my Wayne Goss foundation.
Such a good point.
I’m so glad to see you review this. It really looks great on you.🙏❤️
How kind of you, Jan. Thank you!
This looks great on you. I like the side of shade 3 by itself. I ordered universal and shade 7 . I plan on wearing 7 as a foundation. And universal for my makeup no makeup days with just concealer under the eyes.
That's what I think I will do, too, rather than wear the universal under 3.
I’m absolutely curious about this product. I just found you and so excited to watch more of your content.
How nice of you to say that, Robin. I am so happy to have you here!
I am very excited to try this product!! I lean more oily and this is formulated to help manage oil! Yah! My decision is the universal shade or a color! Rebecca - did you test it with a mask? I need to wear one all day for work (I’m in healthcare) so I would love to know if you had much transfer!
Well Aggie, I can ABSOLUTELY answer this for you. I read your comment, put on the mask next to my desk here and finished serving dinner to my kids while wearing a mask. They already think I'm crazy so it's fine. Haha. NO TRANSFER. Now I've had it on for HOURS and HOURS but it's still on my face and there was zero transfer. I can imagine if I'd put the mask on immediately after putting on the balm, there would likely be some but, hours later, still on my face and no transfer, happy to report.
Good morning my dear. It looked super natural on you, Rebecca. I preferred shade 3 on you better, on its own. Dang, I’m nervous now. I purposely ordered the universal shade to use as a primer and didn’t order a color shade to use as a foundation, because I wasn’t sure about the performance. I’m glad I didn’t. Hey, I received Wayne’s foundation and powder. I haven’t tried it out on my face YET, but I did test it on my hand. It was a perfect match. I can’t wait to wear it💃. Thanks for the video, Rebecca🥰💜.
Hello Danielle! Oh you'll LOVE the Wayne. Will be interested in hearing what your thoughts are on the universal shade of this product. I am not sure how I feel about that for non oily skin. But the shaded product I'm really enjoying.
I’ll definitely keep you posted. Thanks again, Rebecca🥰.
@@Deeluvzed ❤️❤️❤️
I agree Rebecca, I prefer just the shade 3...think I'll pick this one up when it reaches here in the UK, thanks so much for the review 😀 lots of love xxx
It’s really a fun product, Amanda. I think I’m gonna put on a little bit of a dewy sunscreen underneath and that will help it sink in even quicker
This was a great review. I really enjoyed watching. Seeing the differences.
Thank you so much! What a nice thing to say. I very much appreciate it.

Summertime I wear tinted spf alot, this might be better over that than using powder?
Totally agree, Robin. In fact, perfect for that.
Finally a good review from this product... thank you very much ❤
I love ALL her complexion products. She's a skin genius!
Wow!! That looks so beautiful!!! It leaves such a beautiful finish. You have me teetering on the edge of ordering….let me take a look at the shades…just a look 🤣
Tracie! My first reaction this morning wasn't the same as this afternoon. It really kind of becomes a second skin as the day goes on. It's super pretty.
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty Well I can say it is intriguing. I can definitely say it’s more appealing than I originally thought. I could definitely see using it either over foundation or as my one and done.
@@traciewarren1070 Good one and done for summer but needs time to kind of meld with the skin. Haha. To do its dance.
Love your complexion reviews. This balm looks interesting and it’s certainly calling me to try it out😂
It’s innovative in a sea of same! 💕
Hi - Thank you for doing a 6-hour wear-test of 1, 2 and 3 layers with this new foundation balm. Like you, I prefer the 1-layer for “everyday” coverage. Thanks for the wear-test. DM should pay you.
Hello Jocelyne! Thank you so much for your incredibly kind comment. I am really enjoying this stuff especially as a break from the heavier Wayne Goss, which I do still love, and the overly moisturizing Jones Road which is lovely but I think my skin is crying out for a break. The balm to powder was nice!
Woooooooohoooooo!!! The confetti and the horns are baaaack!!! 🎉🎉🎊🎊 I agree with you. I like shade 3 by itself the best. I need more moisture than a powder finish, so I still have my eye on the Jones Road. I am on the drier side and have been craving a lotttt of moisture lately. I hear what you’re saying in terms of almost “too much moisture” on the JR (if I heard you correctly; if not, please correct me!!). Well, I still kind of want that. Thank you, my friend, for another more-than-awesome review!!!! 🤗🤗🥰🥰🥰💖
Hellllloooooooo. Yes. Too much moisture in the JR. But it feels lovely!!! I just kept moisturizing when I took it off and that was over the top!!
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty Ohhh, I see!! And that’s exactly what I always do. Take off one deluxe moisturizing product and add another that’s even worse!!! Noted. I must pay more attention to that, or else I will end up as a grease ball with drier skin-if that’s even possible!! 😂😅🥰🥰🥰💖
@@MissBeeeBeee ohhh totally. I understand. They say our grease and our dryness aren’t related. But that’s like a skin Rubiks cube! That being says hah I really do think the Jones road product is for you.
Interesting! I think I'll try the 3! I think I'm about your shade but maybe a touch lighter? This looks pretty neat and sort of what I thought the Tatcha balm would be! Hmmm, lots of think about, haha! Thank you so much for this review!
It’s actually really nice. I am now hearing that a lot of reviewers didn’t like it but I wonder if they did a wear test. Because, this morning, I didn’t see what was so interesting about it and felt it lacked in something. But as the day wore on I started enjoying it more and more as it really became a second skin.
Thanks for explaining this and demonstrating it so well. I’m definitely intrigued!
Thank YOU for being here to share it with me, Jessi!
Trying to decide on whether to get this one. I live in Southern California too and thought it might be good in summer humidity. I'm really confused about the shades. I have fair skin, but No 1 looks too pale. I watched a video where a woman used No2, the shade I thought would be right for me, and it looked pasty on her, not to mention how it clung badly to her combo skin. Did No3 dry down darker on you? I was thinking No3 could be right, but I'm lighter than you. Did you add bronzer? I couldn't see if No2 oxidized on the woman in the video because she hated it so much she didn't give it a wear test. It looked like she loaded an awful lot of product on as well and expected it to provide full coverage. I will be interested to see how the No3 wears on you when you use it alone.
Hello elizabeth. Yes, that’s what I’m finding. The reviews that didn’t like it most did not give it a wear test. Obviously I haven’t seen every review but you know what I mean. I wasn’t impressed with it when I first put it on either. But I also didn’t cake it on. It needs to be put on very lightly and built. It oxidized a tad, got a teeny bit darker and, yes, I added a little bit of bronzer and a little bit of blush and then it looked fine. It’s actually just a tad bit too light for me so I think the three would work for you. If you decide to try it, just a little bit and build it and then let it sit. give it a half hour, give it 45 minutes, give it an hour and a half, seriously, put your other makeup on over it and see what you think in a little bit as it wears.
Mines coming tomorrow!! I’m nervous though because some of the reviews I’ve seen haven’t been so good
Now that I have mine, I will check out other reviews. Did they wear test? The reason that I ask is that this morning, I wasn't thrilled. this afternoon, tho, I loved it. It really needed that time.
I am a senior lady but have taken care of my skin all my life. I used the WTF lightly and applied this product (#3) with a foundation brush and Wow! This product is so unique and it set down to a gorgeous finish. It’s a keeper for sure.
Hello Linda! I am finding that, with the JR foundation, I can even forgo my night and morning moisturizer. In fact, I have to or I'm OVER moisturized. It's definitely a godsend for those with dry skin whereas, this new Danessa is really great for those that can go a bit more oily.
I think all types of skin can use the new DM product.
@@lindaoffshore Oh for SURE. It takes it a bit of time to meld into my normal skin, quicker if I moisturize first and, for oily skin, right away. But works for ALL. Absolutely agreed.
It looks beautiful Rebecca. Great 👍 job at explaining the feel of it. ❤️
Thank you so much, Sara!!!!
Interesting what you said about the Jones Road WTF maybe breaking you out. I also don’t have a problem with breakouts except when I wore the Wayne Goss cream foundation. I’m waiting on the Jones Road, but haven’t pulled the trigger on the Danessa Myricks. The creams/balms may or may not be good for me.
Hello Rabbi! What’s happening with me is that I have very normal but what I like to call “suggestible “skin. If I use way too much moisturizer, I break out. If I use no moisturizer, I can go dry. When I use the Jones Rd., Foundation and continue with my normal morning and night routine, it’s too much moisturizer and I am getting little breakouts. No good. And I have no desire to really change my morning and night skincare routine so it puts me in a bit of a predicament. I can see that applying the Wayne product could also be very heavy on skin and also cause breakouts. And, who knows! I have been exclusively using the JONES Road product after the Wayne product so maybe my skin is just throwing up a white flag and it’s done with anything heavier or very moisturizing. Maybe I need to go back to some traditional foundations for a week or so! So you bring up a very good point.
📣🎉🎉 Time for the complexion confetti & air horns...and I'm here for it Rebecca 😉
I agree with you as I like the side with just the #3 balm. It seemed to cover better so I don't know why you'd need the universal primer? You would think they'd work better together. I just used my new Dior Airflash foundation on Sunday...MIND BLOWN!! 😃💓🎉🎉
That Dior Airflash is so tremendously good. Just so so so good. I guess someone would use the universal shade here as a primer for regular foundation? Dunno. My favorite is the shade three.
I found that the Universal shade was more hydrating and primer like than Shade 1 and 6. But that was just my experience. I found they layered wonderfully however worked well on its own too. I have been wearing this product every single day. I am obsessed it is so unique 👌
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty hey Rebecca this is off topic but have you by chance seen the Chanel at Macy's commercial with the products dancing around to "Groove is in the Heart"? It's so silly but it reminds me of you & your Jellycat lippie and nail polish...i 💓it!! 😂
It looks beautiful on you! Wonder how it would work with sensitive combo skin??!
I am hearing wonderful things about this with combo skin especially when doubled up on more oily areas. Really keeps the shine at bay!
I totally agree with the number 3 by itself. It looks so natural! Do you know if it has fragrance. I thought about getting the Jones Road but decided against it due to herbal scent!
No scent here, Kim. Certainly not a noticeable one. :)
Hi dear Rebecca, watched already a part another time, and now the rest, love this very good, very honest and detailed review, all looks beautiful on you!!!🤩🤩🤩🤩I ordered shade 1, 2, 3 and 4, they came today, so i swatched on my hand only, we're almost going away for a short break, don't know when i can use it, but they swatch great!!! The lighter shades i bought for concealer purpose. Maybe the transparent shade is also a good idea!!! Shade 3 is very close to my skintone, and love to mix with shade 4 in summer i think, i don't tan easy. Other DM i don't have, well i had the cream bronze/contour product but was not over the moon, love most my TF/CT/Rare in this category i must say. But the other products look very beautiful as well!!! Thanks and have a wonderful day!!!😘😘😘😘
Annemarie! You can not only mix the shades but you can also highlight and bronze with them. For summer months, these are wonderful for any humidity or summer rain. And yes, exactly, to conceal as well. Very multi purpose. I would love to hear your thoughts, only when you have time and after you’ve experimented with the different shades. Hoping you’re well and the asthma isn’t acting up right now. I know it’s a struggle. So fortunate to have you here and your support is very meaningful.
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty thanks so much for all the tips and tricks and kind wishes!!!
@@annemarietimmerman7213 ❤️❤️❤️
I received the universal shade yesterday. I wanted to try it before getting a color with coverage. I like it but today will be my first day of wear. I can’t wait to try it as an eye primer. I’m unsure which color to get if I get one. I was thinking 1 but since seeing this that will probably be too light. I am as light as you but cool toned, very pink.
You might even be the three shade as a comment just told me that, on Danessa's website, there are shade suggestions based on the serum foundation shade you wear and, by that chart, I am a four in this. The three works but is a tad bit light so the four recommendation makes sense. This means you are likely a three like me or MAYBE a two but def not a one, agreed.
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty thank you so much!! I’ll try 3.
@@d.m.3133 let me know your thoughts once you try it!
I'm not completely sold. Can't say it makes your face look that different, though could see where the line was w/o it. I got a very nice sample from Sephora for 100 points and wanted to try it... talking Universal. I'm really most curious on the shaded balms.
Have you tried the Lancome Priming Serum "smoothing primer" in the white case? U can buy a refill. I bought it impulsively as read good things about it. Seems they are both very similar tho sure they have their own special ingredient. I don't see any real difference between the two but the compact with mirror is a plus.
Good to know it looked darker and you thought it would be too light.
Thanks for doing this .... I don't care for very wet primers or sticky ones so was curious how this works.
ps Lancome released the product I think in early 2022, it has a serum in it which attrracted me to it and I had a discount so impulsively bought it.
Thank you so much for your comments. I’m so grateful for all the information as it is helpful for this community. I have not tried the Lancome priming serum but it sounds really interesting. I don’t know how I missed that release!
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty wouldn't ever have known but saw it asked what it was ... may have seen it at Nordstrom then Macys.... I have a sample of the Universal can't really tell the difference but supposedly Lancome has Serum in it and good reviews (and a mirror lol) so took a chance... will see if I order a refill or not. Am curious how they differ... has small bit of tint maybe
@@bobbi5523 I am curious as well
Would you recommend the balm for someone with dry skin? How do you like the brush u used to apply the balm? The fan brush looks like it fits into nooks and crannies of the face. Thank you ❤
this is a LOVELY product. Danessa really does complexion so well. I like the Yummy Skin Tint a BIT more just because of ease of use. the brush is wonderful. Yes, a fan brush for this is just what the doctor ordered, so to speak.
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty thank you 😊.
Hi lovely Rebecca !! Great review love the packaging and the spatula is cute and more hygienic. I think number 3 on it’s own looks lovely 🤗💕
That's so funny, Bridget. EVERYONE is voting for the one I liked, 3 alone!
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty Lovely 😊
@@bridgettucker3692 💕💕💕
Loved the video , I can’t decide on this, I love the side with just shade 3 looks healthy, I wonder if it holds up to the heat and humidity here in Florida my foundations 8 love are powder because they are so easy but with my aging 56 skin with wrinkles I wonder how it would work? Does it feel heavy or like nothing there?🥰🥰
Really formulated with oily skin in mind and nothing makes that a reality like heat and humidity so I think this would be a good choice for the weather coming up this summer!!! And it is super light. Definitely a "nothing on" feeling.
So I just got the WG cream foundation, with powder. I have combo skin, live in NY, where summers are humid. I do find that i need to moisturize well with it or my skin looks dry. This new DM balm/powder…how does it compare? It sounds like it works well with oily/combo skin but how different is it after powdering the WG cream? Like I need this!!! Love your reviews!
Hello Shari! I like this new Danessa product. I really do. Some are finding fault with it but I feel like, especially if you moisturize well or tend to have a oily or a combo complexion, it’s really good. The Wayne product, on the other hand, nobody has trouble with, every skin type can wear it and it is equally flawless across the board. So, you have chosen the correct one of the two!
Very beautiful on you! Interested to hear your comparisons to the WG cream foundation. Similarities and differences in terms of finish and how it wears on the skin? I'm intrigued by this new balm, but not sure if I need it...
To be honest, Lee, cos you know me....Wayne is a more perfected, versatile look.
Thanks so much! I went in with both feet on the WG shades and I'm loving them!
@@leecoiner3293 Wonderful choice!
Ooooh I'm SUPER interested in this😍 cause my oily t zone wants to stay oily no matter what! But dayum she needs to put out more shades cause I need a light medium with yellow undertone and there's only a light medium with neutral undertone (sold out at the moment) and those tend to make me look ashy 🙄 Thanks for your great review❣❣❣💕🤗💕
Hello Simo! Yes, the shades are baffling and there are jumps in between like crazy. I hope she decides to put out more. I feel like the shade I chose is a bit too pale for me but my next choice would be WAY too dark so I bronzed and such and it just kind of became fine. So...yes, you'd have to go with the neutral. I do not think it would go ashy but I definitely see your point AND your hesitation because you can't return. Eek. That's too much of a risk, frankly!
This is the review I awaited!!!
Hugs to you, my friend!
I bought this one! Still waiting for it to arrive, of course with international shipping etc, but I'm really looking forward to trying it. It really sounds amazing on paper!
Oh you MUST let me know your thoughts, please.
I forgot to ask you about using primer under this? Did you try it with different primers? Wondered if the finish and texture would be effected by primers
YES! ❤️ I have used the Yummy skin one under it that's very dewy and it was lovely. Nothing super special about that primer so it means any would be good!
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty How long does it take to dry to the powder finish so you can put your makeup like blush etc on ?
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty So I've been using this for the past few days and omg! Amazing!!! Perfect shade too! Thanks for the assistance!
@@marytaylor8482 yay!!!! Yay!!!! Yay!!!!
I have been looking at this and also the new Patrick Ta cream foundation. I watched your reviews on both so now my question is which did you prefer? We have same skin types and shade twins on a lot of foundation so dying to hear your thoughts!
Hello Mary! I think the Danessa Myricks is easier to wear. What do I mean by that? The Patrick Ta is beautiful but it’s on your skin and you know it’s on your skin. It’s thick and a little bit heavy. It looks beautiful and it wears very well and would be great if you were taking a lot of photos that day. But for an every day running around working, errands etc. I think the Danessa is just an easier one because it’s cream to powder and Patrick’s is cream to… Cream ha ha
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty Would you say the shade 3 was good for you?
@@marytaylor8482 It absolutely was! :)
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty Thank you so much!!!
@@marytaylor8482 💕❤️♥️
Upon first application, I liked your right side with only two products - I think it was the 3 on its own.
The three on its own is my favorite, too.
Hi Rebecca! I like the way your skin looks -after you applied this product! It looks smooth and blurred.. I’m intrigued!! My question would be should I get the translucent or a shade? Which do you prefer-the yummy serum or this balm? (When you’ve decided) I’m a real minimalist when it comes to foundation and rarely wear it- tinted sunscreen and sometimes the Shiseido skin tint with spf are the most I wear.
Hello Laura! In terms of skin tints, I really like the Yummy serum but there are better skin serums, tinted ones, out there. As for this product, I MUCH MUCH prefer the tinted shade over the universal. For SURE.
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty oh that’s good to know! Thanks very much!
❤️❤️❤️
Have you heard of Perbelle skin tint adjusting cc cream?
Nooo....do tell??? I'll look it up. Interested already.
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty a friend asked me if I ever heard of it.
@@debhauer3342 So interesting. They appear to be mid to high level pricing and for all skin types and ages. But I've honestly never heard of them and, truly, not to brag, but that's rare. I wonder if they're good.
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty I thought if anyone would have heard of it that would have been you. Thank you
@@debhauer3342 I’m still interested and sniffing around. Listen for your shout out in the Charlotte video!!
Hi Rebecca! Great video and so informative..! First your experience with the JR. I was considering after your initial review video but was on the fence because I remember the BB extra tinted balm which was too moisturizing, so even though it was different I thought it may still not work. After hearing how you have been breaking out, I paused on purchasing it because products that are too moisturizing can break me out as well. As far as the Danessa Myricks, your review was very helpful. I ordered the shade 7 based on my serum foundation color so curious as to how I’ll like it. Question.. it looks like shade 4 was the recommended shade on DM website based on your foundation shade. What made you select 3 over 4? At first, I think I agreed with you.. 3 did appear a bit too light but interestingly seemed to adjust. Once you completed your application, it looked beautiful in indoor and outdoor lighting. Would you say this could be due to oxidation? I ask because I wonder if you went with the next deeper shade (choosing based on foundation like I did), if it may have become too deep for you as the day went on…?
So much to say in answer to this wonderful comment, Adrienne! I did not know they did suggestions on shades based on the serum foundation shade. Had I known that I likely would have purchased the four and maybe it would be better! Honestly. The three worked but it was definitely too light until I applied the rest of my makeup. It could likely also be a bit of oxidation. As it sat and became one with my skin a bit more, I didn't notice the stark pale look. Haha. And once makeup was on, it was really nice. But could I likely use the four instead? Probably, frankly. As for the Jones Road product, it is EXACTLY like the old school Bobbi Brown version and, if you also continue your normal skincare routine, as I did, it started to break me out. So I'd have to skip my moisturizer day and night if I am using the JR foundation and, frankly, I ENJOY my morning and night skincare. It works for me. So....yeah, the JR foundation and I are gonna have issues. Sigh.
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty I understand, very interesting experience with the DM. I’m anxiously awaiting the arrival my balm powder, just the name alone has me curious. I like the versatility, that it can be worn alone or under or over foundation. The idea of purchasing this in multiple shades to bronze and/or contour, highlight, etc. is fascinating although I probably won’t buy any more shades as I have enough makeup as it is. lol. Which brings me to the Jones Road. I guess my initial thought to buy was out of interest because it is yet another new product to try.. but realistically, I really don’t need., especially since there is a high probability it won’t work so well for me. Plus, it makes no sense for me to buy each and every new foundation that comes out. I only have 1 face. Haha! That is why your reviews are so great. The info you provide and insight from personal experience is really helpful with decision making! Thanks so much! :-)
Hello Adrienne! Definitely. The JR has a VERY specific customer in mind and it is not for everyone. It really isn't. I know everyone says just powder it. But that's like going to lunch with this one friend of mine who orders the salad with salmon but asks if she could have chicken instead of salmon and could she switch the dressing and what kind of lettuce do they use. You know?
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty I absolutely know what you mean. exactly. lol!! I received my DM balm powder today and really like the way it feels. You were right, it is light in texture and gives a soft blurring effect to the skin. I got shade 7 (15N in the DM serum foundation) and shade wise is pretty perfect. I’ll probably wear the balm powder separate from the serum foundation since I have the tinted powder because when I layered them, it was too much coverage for me. Then again.. I may have just applied too much. A little does go a long way with her foundation. ;-)
@@adriennej859 oh absolutely. It’s all about getting the ratio down. So true. I wore the shade three alone today and I love it. Going to try it tomorrow with her yummy liquid primer under. Was going to do that today and forgot. Haha. So me to do that.
Dear Rebecca excellent job. I rather watch your videos than movies.
Thank you, Florina! What a kind thing to say. Thank you so much. I’m so happy to have you here.
This looks good. You put this on over sunscreen, right?
Hello Barb. Yes. AND....I think a bit of a dewy sunscreen would help it sink it even faster as oily skinned people are loving this.
Which do you like better the serum or the balm ?
Too soon to really tell but I think this balm as it's more innovative and the serum is good but there's SO many of those on the market. Together, combined, the coverage is higher tho.
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty tysm
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty thank you my friend
@@vroomvroom9373 ❤️❤️❤️
@@vroomvroom9373 Always such a pleasure!
You make me think I need EVERYTHING you try! Does this COMPLETELY dry down or would I need to powder. Can't stand any tackiness
Hello Renee! Totally dries down. Balm to powder that kind of melts into the feel of a very fine powder. No tackiness at all, happy to report!
One more question... is it a med cov??? Or just light
Ideally this would be light and could be worn over a traditional foundation to add coverage BUT, having said that, it's definitely buildable and I feel I can get a medium coverage out of it.
@@NotFitforPrintBeauty so I'm watching your other DM foundation video do you think the no color balm w/be in place of powder over the top or should I get a colored one? UGH need all the things!
@@reneegrace7965 I think I have the answer. I would definitely get the colored version. Why? Because it doesn’t add too much coverage. And then, later on, on a day when you feel like it, you could just put it over a little bit of moisturizer and have a no make up look. In other words, the powder with shade will have a little bit more versatility. It’s not so much coverage that you would feel you need both.
Do you think dry skin would like it?
Hello Deb! As long as you moisturize first, yes, and you would not need the transparent shade as a primer.
I’m shade 3 but bought 2 and six so I can mix, highlight and bronze. Tried it today briefly. Jury is still out. I need to try this a few more ways. I will say it is different, so you gotta give it to her there. Upon initial application it looked good, but it did settle into pores after a while. Although I didn’t do any skin prep at all. So I definitely need more time to test, but I’ll have a review on this one soon too!
Initially I didn’t love it. At all. I was unimpressed. An hour later, I liked it. Two hours later I loved it. Will be interesting to hear what you think as you experiment with it more.
Bedankt

I had a TERRIBLE experience with the Yummy foundation but this...omg...this was a GAME CHANGER for me. I did an 8 hr wear test using it multiple ways and just like Rebecca said, I totally agree this product looks better and better as the day goes on. I hope this product never gets discontinued.

Ohhhhhhhh this is not for me. First, my initial thought is the clear one looks like when my grandmother used to save bacon grease. Lol. Nope nope I haven’t figured out you would set your makeup with it. I’m kinda creeped out by it lol
Bacon grease! Dying! Can’t unsee it. Laughing so hard!!!

Ooooooh. I think I need to buy this 😜🤣. I want to buy everything you review :) I think it will be great to touch up my makeup when I’m working my 24 hr shift. There. That’s my excuse for buying this. Every shift is different ( sometimes I have to wash my face and completely start over. 🫤) but I think this will really be great. Thanks for another awesome review
This IS a good one for touch ups!!!! Totally agreed. And it’s reasonably enough priced not to be too too painful on the budget!
Bedankt
