Yummy Skin Liquid Blurring Balm Mattifying Setting Spray
SUMMARY OF REVIEWS
Danessa Myricks Beauty Yummy Skin Liquid Blurring Balm Mattifying Setting Spray works like a "powder in a liquid form," immediately mattifying and blurring skin while extending makeup wear all day. Professional makeup artist Julia Adams MUA cautions that using too much can feel tightening, and Magdaline Janet warns it can get patchy if applied over cream products. It's best for oily to combo skin, though several with dry skin say it doesn't dry them out, and it can replace powder for a soft matte finish.
