The Danessa Myricks Beauty Thread

[sister13]

Unless I’m mistaken, we don’t yet have a thread dedicated to this amazing brand and Founder/CEO, Danessa Myricks. She launched her line at Sephora in February 2021. I have been so impressed with everything I’ve tried from her brand! I have been following her on Instagram for many years prior to that and was so excited for her to come to my favorite beauty retailer, Sephora. As a makeup artist, she always seems so genuine, warm and positive, and her line was founded on inclusivity and creativity.

On her website, she has instructional videos, some free and some for subscribers or purchase. She does incredible looks with color, but I’ve always been impressed with her complexion looks on all skin colors, tones, and textures. I started following her when I was working part time as a makeup artist at Sephora and I wanted to become more familiar with makeup colors on darker skin tones.

My first purchases from her line were the Colorfix pigments, which can be used anywhere, can be mixed together, and are incredibly versatile. They come in mattes and shimmers/foils in a massive range of colors. Most recently I have absolutely fallen in love with herDanessa Myricks Beauty Lightwork Vol. IV: Transcendence Palette - Illuminating Eye & Face Pigments . It is a phenomenally stunning palette with shades that are guaranteed to turn heads!

Even though I’ve even on a foundation no buy, I couldn’t resist her Danessa Myricks Beauty Yummy Skin Serum Foundationand Danessa Myricks Beauty Yummy Skin Glow Serum with Hyaluronic Acid & Niacinamide .

I’ve added a pic of my current DM collection below. I’m missing a couple items from this pic, so I’ll update once I have everything together. 

So, please join me in sharing your loves and observations and pics from this great beauty line! Please post here and tag me if you catch announcements of any beauty releases or other news!

@CynthieLu I think it's supposed to be $65 and drops 5/21 but not 100% sure.

[CynthieLu]

Ooh thank you for sharing that. The 21st isn't too far off. 😊 @makeitup305 I think CAD pricing will have it at 88$ for us up here. 

[danielledanielle]

Ah, sorry I don't have any deets @CynthieLu , you have more than I do.  I just saw it and thought it was pretty package wise.  I liked the Danessa Myricks Beauty Infinite Chrome Flakes Multichrome Gel for Eyes & Face Pride and Danessa Myricks Beauty Infinite Chrome Flakes Multichrome Gel for Eyes & Face infinite chrome bi-pri... items she's released in the past, so I figured this will be very much like those.

That's all I know and this little graphic from Sephora's Page for the Palette @danielledanielle 

I asked some questions online and I'm hoping someone from the brand will see them and respond but I don't expect to hear anything. 

I think this looks so fun! 😊

[CynthieLu]

It came in stock yesterday 🤩🤩 

It's soooo velvety you guys! 🤩

[Mellmars1185]

@CynthieLu Is this a brush?? Tell me more please!!

[CynthieLu]

Happy to @Mellmars1185  🩷

It's a Kabuki brush DM came out with for applying her blurring balms, foundations or tints. I'm sure it has a bunch of other fun uses too. It's very velvety on the bottom and dense. 😍

I used it this morning to apply  my skin tint today and I did enjoy it. I am going to try with her balms tomorrow hopefully and see how it does with them.

She has videos on IG and YouTube you can peak at. It was released last year but *finally* arrived on the Canadian site *happy dance!* I signed up for the restock notice and grabbed it when they got a few in. 🎉

I honestly thought it wouldn't arrive. And maybe it was a error it was on our site. ( Her blush brush was on our site but never came in stock, or my restock link is super broken 🤔)

[sister13]

Ooohhhhh!! @CynthieLu 

[CynthieLu]

@sister13 And It's already sold out again on our site. I'm so glad the in-stock message came through and I was able to snap it up. 😊🎉🎉

[sister13]

Oh wow, so good you jumped right in it!! @CynthieLu 

[CynthieLu]

Lol I totally did, you snooze you loose 😉😉 @sister13 

[danielledanielle]

Patiently awaiting brush drop...but in the meantime

[CynthieLu]

@danielledanielle is the Kabuki brush active on the US site??

[danielledanielle]

@CynthieLu, yup

[CynthieLu]

Thank you for that @danielledanielle I was curious 🙏🙏

It's up the Canadian site, new addition today, but it says out of stock.

When her first blush brush was released, it was posted to the Canadian site but we never got any in stock. I hope this isn't the same. I saw her IG videos awhile back when she first released her Kabuki, I would totally cave and get it. 😉

We do have the low lighters and I picked one up, I'm super happy we got those on the CAD site. 😀🎉

[sister13]

Ooh, can’t wait to see it @CynthieLu , yay, which one did you get? I’ve been eyeing this kabuki brush since it launched and just saw her using it again, it looks so nice! @danielledanielle 

[CynthieLu]

I feel the same about the Kabuki @sister13 I think it looks very interesting, and I'd love to try it with my Blurring Balms. 🙂

For her Low Lighter I went with Danessa Myricks Beauty Yummy Skin Blurring Balm Powder Lowlighter Soft Glow Highlighter Lowkey 

I was debating between it and the pink one but I felt drawn to this one more, so into my cart it went. 

[sister13]

I just posted my first couple looks with Danessa Myricks Beauty Groundwork: Blooming Romance - Palette For Eyes, Brows, Face & Lips on the Re: Makeup Challenge of the Week 2021/2022/2023 thread. I’m in love with it! I am sure I could create similar looks from other products but having them all together in one is one. There are more coral/oranges than I expected, but so so pretty. It’s a nice blend of pinks, corals and deep plums. I’m looking forward to using it more. Here are some pics of the palette and I also posted my review on the product page so it should be up soon. 

Already loved pic:

 

 

 

Compared to Danessa Myricks Beauty Groundwork: Defining Neutrals - Palette For Eyes, Brows, Face & Lips 

 

These swatches do not do it justice, it looks so much better in person, but here they are anyway!

 

[Mellmars1185]

@sister13 Gorgeous palette and swatches 💞

[sister13]

Thanks! It’s really pretty in real life! @Mellmars1185 

[danielledanielle]

Ugggghhhh, this too?!?! @sister13
