Melt Cosmetics Sundown Cream Blushlight Review & Swatches

Sundown

Melt Cosmetics Sundown Cream BlushlightMelt Cosmetics Sundown Cream Blushlight ($22.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a medium brown with warmer, more orange undertones and fine, lighter copper pearl throughout. The finish was softly luminous–not really dewy but had more glow than a true satin finish. I found that when applied and blended out, the base color came through more noticeably with the pearl receding into the background a bit, so it wasn’t as shimmery applied as it appeared swatched.

The texture was moderately emollient, creamy, and smooth to the touch with good glide, which helped it spread evenly over bare skin and over foundation without lifting it up. It had mostly opaque color coverage that could be built up or sheered out as desired. It stayed on nicely for eight hours before fading a bit.

Formula Overview

$22.00/0.14 oz. - $157.14 Per Ounce

The product is primarily marketed as a cream blush, but the brand also stated that they can be applied to lips as well with some shades working as cream eyeshadow for a monochromatic look. There was nothing about coverage that I could find, though the brand's swatches--both live and in promotional images--were opaque.

The formula was lightweight, moderately emollient, and slightly gel-like, which helped it spread better over bare skin and over base products. Most shades were not prone to lifting up base products and worked well with both fingertips and brushes for application.

As the formula was more pigmented with most shades ranging from semi-opaque to fully opaque, I found brushes were particularly good at getting a sheerer, more diffused application, especially around the edges. If you want a sheerer effect, I'd recommend using less product and building up more as they were more pigmented than most cream-based blushes.

They dried down to a more transfer-resistant finish, so they did not remain emollient, which helped them last longer on my skin. They could still be blended out once dry, and if I rubbed with a fingertip, product would transfer, but the color didn't lift away if I had to brush a stray eyelash or hair from my face (as examples). They still had a natural sheen on my skin, less than dewy but definitely not matte either!

On average, they lasted eight hours on me with a couple of shades lasting a touch longer. I found the shimmer-less shades to last slightly longer in comparison to the shimmery shades, which were more emollient in the pan as well.
