I'm a Culture Writer, and This Is Everything I Pack For Award Shows

Danessa Myricks Beauty Yummy Skin Blurring Balm Powder ($36)

I discovered this black-owned beauty find on TikTok and now, I can't do my makeup without it. It's perfect for all-day events as it absorbs sweat and maintains hydration while still giving you plenty of coverage. If I want a lighter makeup look, I use this product alone but for events, I tend to use it as a primer and add a foundation on top. Either way, it never disappoints.
