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!

@Titian06 too funny - I ordered it online hoping it would be warmer and a little peachy as well so I'm glad the swatch helped. Tag me if you get it and post anything if you remember - I'm really curious about different ways this shade could be used!

A little late posting my review to the product page but adding it here. I didn’t get this from DMB and couldn’t wait. If I get it, I’ll gift it or maybe do a giveaway. It’s wonderful! 

Danessa Lightwork VI

Danessa Myricks Beauty LIGHTWORK VI The Freedom Palette: Magnetic, Customizable, Stackable Palette w... 

I love it! I love the stackable nature of these, and the little face/name plate is also a mirror. Several of the shades are really sparkly, which I love. I got nice long wear from the first trial I did, with no primer, so that’s awesome. I also love that many of the multi chromes are not green shifts, there’s a lot of pink, purple and teal. It’s versatile since you can also use several of the shades for blush and highlight (if you like a sparkly highlight). I don’t mind green shifts but sometimes they’re too prevalent. Overall, it’s definitely a bit pricey but gorgeous and worth it! I wore this on eyes and highlight at SEPHORiA and I got so many compliments all day. I am a Sephora Community Ambassador and I purchased this item on my own and this is my honest review.

Thanks! At SEPHORiA, I used one of the pink shifty colors and got so many compliments/questions what I was wearing for highlight, the colors are really stunning and versatile. @caitbird

You are stuuuning @sister13! You & Lightwork VI make a gorgeous pairing. 😍 Each of the looks you created is phenomenal. Do you have a favorite among them? (I know it will be hard to choose; at the same time, you can’t go wrong with picking any one as a fave.)

[sister13]

Thank you!! Probably the pinks would have to be my fave, but they are all stunning and I do love the purple and teals!! @itsfi
