Rose
Salt New York Rose Lip and Cheek Crème Tint ($16.00 for 0.15 oz.) is a soft, light-medium pink with strong, warm undertones and a natural sheen. It had sheer, buildable color coverage that was buildable to medium to slightly higher medium coverage with three layers.
The texture was lightweight, moderately emollient, and thin with a bit of a gel-like quality, which helped it slide and spread over my skin–even with base products–and perform well over bare skin as well as over foundation. It wore well for seven hours as a cheek color before showing some movement. As a lip product, it had similar coverage but a tendency to settle into all my lip lines, catch on texture, and disappear within two hours.

The formula is described as “buttery soft, easy to blend” and is supposed to have “sheer, buildable coverage with a soft, skin-like finish.” Though it’s available in three types–highlighter, contour/bronzer, and blush–they formulas do not differ dramatically in terms of performance and feel.
It had sheer coverage that was buildable to more medium coverage,but getting full-on opacity didn’t seem like it was really in the realm of possibilities, so those who either need or want greater, truer-to-pan coverage may not find it as workable. I’d recommend sticking with deeper shades for those who need or want more coverage, too, as the lighter shades were less buildable.
As a cheek product, the formula applied evenly and blended out well on bare skin as well as patted over base products as it wasn’t a formula prone to lifting up complexion products. The finish was dewier, though it seemed to soften a bit after an hour or so of wear. They wear was between six and seven hours before there was noticeable fading and/or light movement/slide. I had the best wear when applied over a more matte foundation as compared to bare skin or a dewier/more luminous foundation choice.
As a lip product, they offered semi-sheer to medium coverage that went on somewhat evenly, but the thinner, more emollient formula was quicker to “dry down” on my lips and wasn’t the most flattering formula to have on if you have imperfections, flakiness, or dryness (even minor). They lasted between two to three hours with deeper colors lasting longer and felt non-drying.
In general, I think they’re a better cream blush formula than a lip product, which is par for the course with these multi-tasking blush-and-lip kind of products. For those who intend to wear them primarily as a cheek product, then mentally boost the ratings a bit!
