Best Practices for using Sneaky Balm
- Remember that it is made to be worn as a tint and apply light layers.
- Lock down your skin care routine, and be sure to exfoliate regularly with a chemical exfoliant.
- Apply moisturizer beforehand to prime the skin and even out your skin's natural oils.
- Set lightly with a translucent powder if you have oily skin and you prefer to keep the shine down throughout the day (if you like a dewy look then feel free to skip!)

Sneaky Balm Hydrating Skin Tint
The sneakiest skin tint. A soft, dewy finish. Long lasting for a hydrating skin tint type of formula, not long lasting compared to a matte finish liquid foundation, so let's say medium lasting? Medium lasting! They're chock full of nourishing ingredients like pomegranate, jojoba, & grape seed oils, and contain absolutely zero nonsense ingredients like talc, fragrance, or mineral oil.

Packaging
Zero waste. We designed this system to be as good for the planet as it is for your face. We spent months talking to recycling experts, and researching all the ways we could deliver these precious square babies to y'all without compromising our standards. We landed on simple envelopes that are both recyclable and made from post consumer recycled paper. They have a small insert in the front to protect the tints, but don't worry if your pan becomes intimate with the insert and things...get a little messy. It's perfectly normal for the tint to get on the back of the insert and won't affect the quality of your product at all.

Love the sheer buildable coverage. I have combo skin and is a heavy face sweater; sneaky balm only looks more skin like during the day but pretty much stays put.
I did take away a star because I think the shade is a bit too neutral. I understand that all the shades lean neutral olive, but once you get into the deeper shade range I think we have to take into account darker skin is rarely true olive neutral. Especially with how prominant hyperpigmention is within darker skin, I think if a bit of yellow was added to this shade it would be better suit for more skin tones. I am cool deep olive skinned however this pulls pretty grey on me. The sheerness makes it wearable and I have purchased the yellow skin mixer because I love the formula so much.
So the product is amazing and I will never live without it if that’s possible but I received the wrong color. I tried to order the 11 but got a 13 and my order says 12. I don’t know how it got so messed up. It’s not the makeups fault though lol 😉
I recently discovered Salt NY with the HLP collab, and have quickly & completely fallen in love with this brand. The Sneaky Balm coverage looks so unbelievably natural. It gives a slightly dewy, subtly glowy finish that looks like my skin but better.
My rosacea hasn't been this calm in years. I was worried about it being too emollient for my oily skin, but it is most definitely not. If I want longer wear time, the lightest dusting of a finely milled translucent powder sets it beautifully. They meld together in a way that does not look powdery or emphasize fine lines or texture. It actually blurs and softens them.
My skin feels so healthy; like the barrier function is back to when I was in my 20s. Plumped-up, juiced-up, glowed-up, but not greasy at all. Perimenopause skin? We don't know her anymore.
When I am wearing Sneaky Balm, Best Case Concealer, and the lip & cheek products together I literally cannot stop looking at myself! It's wild. I have already placed a third order because I can't get enough.
These formulas are fantabulous ❤️
Keep doing what you're doing, because it's wonderful!
Most light shades have too much gold in them, but the N13 cools down my red spots while still matching my neck. So happy with it!
I decided to try Sneaky Balm because it’s been said that they’re very forgiving and blend well. It’s true! I ordered N10 and N11 because I’m fully neither of them and I felt that the two together would address my golden-neutral complexion. As under-eye concealer, I can use either N10 or N11 or a mix of the two. When I use them both for the face, prefer to apply N11 first and then I apply N10, blending them both together as I apply it. I’m still in the process of figuring out which method of application is my favorite: brush, sponge or fingertip application. Maybe it will be a combination. These blend like a dream!
