Wonderful product

It really is a pleasure to use this product, I apply with my fingers, work it in, then use a sponge to finalize. It always makes my skin look fresh and hydrated, and the formula is so fun to play with. I have never used a serum foundation yet alone a foundation with SPF, really happy to come across this product, especially knowing that spring and summer are right around the corner.

SPF tint with caveats

I truly appreciate this product! This SPF skin tint is a great option for Warmer weather, or just days where you're casually getting ready and would like a light or natural makeup appearance. It's a very thin formula and easy to apply with the dripper built into the product. I will say, the skin match is decent and there are shades for a wide range of skin tones. However, it's to be noted that this product is high SPF so it is very important to moisturize prior to application or this will...

PERFECT FOR SUMMER

Pictures are with BACK OF IPHONE 14. (You know the camera picks up EVERYTHING) I am In LOVE** . I’ve been looking for a complexion product for the summer. I have one holy grail foundation I use year round. But I did want something for the summer that had to meet these criteria (which it does) 1) doesn’t feel heavy. It’s summer, after all. Lots of humidity and moisture where I’m at. So I don’t want to feel like there’s a thick layer of product on my skin and I’m melting. 2) lasting power....

Like the product, hate the packaging

I do like this product a lot - its great to have SPF in a lightweight tinted formula like this, for extra coverage without being heavy. The color is also a pretty good match for me. Sometimes, depending on how dry my skin is, it can get a bit cakey and flakey, but with the right foundational products underneath this works really nicely, and is a daily staple for me. However, the packaging is awful. I've had two of these with the same problem on both - the dropper part that you squeeze comes...

Packaging nightmare

I really liked this product but hardly got to use it before the bottle completely fell apart… It seems like the white plastic tip wasn’t attached well and came off the green lid… Even though I had the green cap on product literally got everywhere… I would definitely re-buy if the packaging was better but I just can’t spend $40 for a product to have such insufficient packaging… Literally got all over my suitcase and make up bag

Everything I have been searching for

Im over 40, with dry skin and prone to breakouts. Have tried numerous products. This is the one I’ve been hoping for. Easy to blend, provides enough coverage, does not appear cakey and does not cause acne. Wearing light medium shade. Can’t wait to try more products from this line

Not clean

I went in for a clean skin tint with spf, which is what this is advertised for, i always scan things im considering on buying with the Yuka app which can help me detect non clean ingredients in products, since I had no signal inside Sephora, I bought it anyway since I thought it was clean, when I got home I scan it and noticed it had very poor review, will be returning

My Favourite Everyday Skin Tint

I am so so in love with this tint. Initially i purchased it solely for the spf 50 and i expected a slight tint. However, this has the most beautiful skin-like coverage without any heavy feeling. Makes my skin look super glowy!!

Amazing product!

If you like tinted moisturizers this is the perfect product. Coverage depends on how you apply, I tend to go for medium coverage, so it’s definitely buildable, but you can also wear it as light coverage. Finish is dewy, and it kind of dries down to a natural finish. Lasts many hours!

For The Dry Skin Girlies

One of the nicest skin tints as far as the consistency goes. It’s like water and absorbs into the skin but it still gives you coverage. I only took off one star because it’s a little too oily and dewy as far the finish goes, for my taste. For people with very dry skin it will be amazing as it’s really moisturizing. Because it’s so pricy, I think it should be perfect, but it’s almost perfect. But I have to dab some powder over to dry it down, since it doesn’t really set on it’s own. I would...

This skin tint is lightweight yet offers a nice medium coverage that evens out the skin beautifully without feeling heavy.

Returned- not good for dry skin. Clings.

Melasma and dry skin girlies

I love this product! I have it in two shades depending on time of year. It blends well with anything and also melts into the skin. Extra sunscreen is a plus. Can look “wet” but dies down or you can powder down. If you want sunscreen and makeup together, this is the product for you.

i have pretty dry skin (i use tretinoin + eczema) and this skin tint doesn’t cling to my dry patches which is usually the main problem i have with any face product. it has a slight dewy finish so i usually put a little powder on my tt-zone area. the longevity is not bad, it won’t last all day but it still lasts several hours. it hasn’t broken me out or caused any additional dryness which i love. i recommend this for anyone who has dry skin!

Exceeded my expectations!

This completely exceeded my expectations. I debated trying it for a while, and I’m so glad I finally did. My Color IQ suggested the Light shade, but I chose Light-Medium and the match is spot on. It feels incredibly lightweight yet still provides great coverage. I also love that it includes SPF. It’s perfect for daytime wear — especially on weekends when you’re running errands and want to look a little more put together without committing to a full face of makeup.

100% recommend!! As someone with highly sensitive and acne prone skin, I love this skin tint. It’s so light and provides medium coverage but still looks flawless and blends in SO WELL. And I have tried plenty of products to see what makes my skin break out less and so far this has been heaven. ZERO BREAKOUTS which is very rare for my skin because every acne safe makeup product has made it breakout. Thank you TikTok.

Acne-safe formula but packaging needs improvement

I LOVE this formula. I have acne prone skin and I love that it is truly non-comedogenic and acne safe ingredients. Other brands falsely claim they are clean/acne safe but when you do the ingredients, they have pore clogging ingredients. Ciele’s formula is perfect and look flawless. SPF is a major plus. My only concern is the packaging and if not for the packaging would give it 5 stars. My dropper broke in half which is pretty dangerous to have a broken glass dropper floating around in the...

My New HG!

Wow! Definitely HG status. I’ve been jumping around from foundation to foundation and layering with SPF for the last few years (which can be cakey, even with the best products), but this foundation checks all the boxes. I have sensitive, oily skin which is prone to acne, and this product is slightly mattefying without being drying. No breakouts either! Gives me a glow with and without it on. My skin looks and feels healthier. 10 out of 10!!

Unfortunately when I opened it this morning it seems that the bottle somehow broke itself overnight: the top of the eyedropper is stuck to the outer lid.

I’m 38 yo but look like a teenager with this foundation. I just love it. Forever my fave.

Great Sun Protection Natural finish.

The only downside is the packaging—it’s a big no for me since it takes time to use and after a while you can’t get all the product out. But aside from that, my experience was amazing: it felt good on my skin all day, it doesn’t transfer to clothes, it’s super lightweight, and you really feel protected from the sun. The coverage is also very good in my opinion.

I am 43 with combo skin, fine lines, and some acne scars. I'm really happy with the amount of coverage this provides without looking heavy, a little goes a long way. I apply over vitamin c serum and SPF, then set with powder and a setting spray which keeps it looking really good for 8+ hours. I like that I'm getting some additional SPF and skincare with natural, lasting coverage. Building up doesnt work as well, so I just spot conceal as needed. Would prefer a pump dispenser

Shade range isn’t great :(

Looks super pretty and applies very easily (especially with their primer), but I wish the shade range was better. Shade 01 is too yellow, and 02 is too dark… Also maybe skip if you use chemical spf, mixing with mineral spf in this can reduce its efficacy.

Great product but now after buying it twice and losing most of the product to the bottle exploding and/or breaking both times I’m not re-purchasing. It’s a shame because the coverage and finish are lovely but it’s such a waste of money at the end of the day when you can’t make it even halfway through the bottle before it breaks. The first bottle I got broke the second day I had it, the second one lasted a few weeks and then exploded all over my car.

best tint for mature skin

Tried so many foundations and skin tints looking for something that would not settle in lines or get dry looking throughout the day. This one is my #1. I think a pump dispenser would be better but it's not a dealbreaker as the formula is so good. Love that it's a touch of extra spf as well. It looks just as good at the end of the day as when first applied.

Emphasizes Texture

I want to love this, but it highlights skin texture no matter what. It cakes and creases. I have never had this issue with anything else I have used. The concealer is even worse.

This is officially my new favorite foundation. It's a staple in my routine. It gives my skin the most beautiful, flawless base without looking greasy, cakey, or unnatural. This gives light coverage, but it is buildable. It has a natural finish, which is perfect for me. If you want a foundation that gives you that "skin, but better" look, this is the one for you. Definitely worth the price. The bottle lasts forever as you only need to use a few drops to cover your whole face.

Nice coverage, absolutely not sweat proof.

I have a little rosacea on my cheeks, so most skin tints don’t do the best job covering that up. This did a wonderful job! But dear lord, when I went for a quick walk midday with a coworker, I turned into a melting candle. I had streaks of makeup/sweat dripping down my face. My liquid mustache erased any of that nice coverage right off and I looked horrid. So needless to say THIS IS NOT SWEAT PROOF.

Pricey but Worth It

Rarely have I emptied and repurchased foundation or tint but I love this product. It wears well over my skincare and spf, blends beautifully with my contouring and blush products, and has staying power . It can look cakey IF you use too much product but is perfect if you’re looking for hydration, enhanced sun protection, and a “your skin but better” look.

Fabulous and SPF50

I was excited to see a makeup with SPF 50 so I figured I’d give it a try and I love it! The finish is better than other foundations I’ve used (even ones without SPF) and it has great staying power. I’m obsessed already. I want everyone to try it so that Sephora keeps carrying it!

This product has a great light weight feel to it. It’s the perfect amount of natural coverage, with a perfect amount of radiant finish.

My first impression of this product was, "Wow!" It's lightweight and has SPF 50+. My favorite part is that I don't smell the SPF like I do with other products.

I wanted to love this product because it's medium coverage compared to merit uniform or ilia which are both sheer to light coverage. The issue is this formula makes the skin look more textured and cakey

I don’t understand the hype around this product. It is crazy greasy even with minimal and matte skincare underneath it. Another tinted sunscreen that disappoints. I will be returning this.

Changed the game for my skin !

I decided to write a review after using my third bottle of this product. I have very acne prone skin and break out to anything and everything, yet this product helped me achieve clear skin. I was very generous when I applied it, and it still lasted me for months. I love this brand and have many other products, but this is the one that stands out the most. This product is perfect if you want to achieve clear skin but still want to use makeup. I love this brand and will continue to use it 💕

FORMULA IS EVERYTHING!

I am extremely sensitive to products with SPF because I usually break out but was very happy with this formula! It applies so beautifully on the skin. So hydrating and feels light on the skin. HOWEVER, unfortunately the shade didn’t work out for me I got 5 medium and literally looked orange and went a shade lighter and almost looked grey. lol if you could find your shade the formula is everything!

Might be great for someone else.

Hands down would have been the best skin tint&spf I have ever used! Beautiful finish, got many compliments on my skin while wearing this but unfortunately it made me break out on my cheeks :( I got two good uses out of it before my skin decided nope.

I have a lot of trouble finding the right shade of foundation, and was so happy that their shades worked so well for me. I would wear this day or night, and a little goes a long way.

Good and Bad

I want to love this product soooo bad, it has a BEAUTIFUL finish and feels so lightweight…but it breaks me out instantly the next day after wearing it. I love the coverage, the finish, and the SPF, but it’s not worth the heartache from a broken out face. Either a bad skin reaction or not truly acne-safe.

I love this Spf tint for my daily use! It’s clean but after trying few other products that were too sticky on my face or invisible, i feel like this is one of its best in the category of tint+ Spf! It has light- medium coverage but it’s smooth the skin tone and stay for longer when setting with the Ciele powder. Love those two together and separate but i think together they work even better and stay longer on the skin, finally enjoying an Spf tint

Sadly, A Miss

Unfortunately like a few other reviewers, this REALLY emphasized my pores and caused little bumps that showed up maybe an hour after application. The texture stayed for days, and when it finally went away, I tried the tint again and the same thing happened. Combined with the super messy packaging, this makes it a no-go in my book. For context, I have oily, sensitive acne prone skin. I loved how it looked on my skin until the bumps appeared! Super bummed.

I am 30 years old, and struggle with acne and combo/oily skin. This is the first foundation I’ve found that does not break me out. It’s extremely light on my face and lasts all day of walking around.

Silky smooth results. I think this product has improved the texture of my skin. It is very dewy and light-reflecting. The cons is the serum smears and is maybe too flexible. It transfers to clothing.

Absolutely LOVE this product. It’s light, goes on smooth, evens skin tone beautifully, doesn’t look cakey at all. I love how it makes my skin look and feel.

Wanted to love. Too greasy and oxidizes

The description claims this foundation has a natural finish, but I've found it looks quite greasy (and I have normal to dry skin). I live in a very hot and humid climate, so SPF-infused makeup has become a must, but this feels like it just melts off my face. I wanted something I could throw on and run out the door with (like a skin tint or BB cream), but this needs to be set well and paired with a brightening concealer to balance out the (eventual) oxidation.

Did not work out for me

While I was really impressed with the color of the product (i’m very fair with yellow undertones), the formula unfortunately didn’t work well for my skin and I had to return it. it clung to any slightly dry area even with moisturizer on so if you have anything less than completely perfect skin with 0 pimples it may highlight these trouble spots rather than helping conceal them.

LacyVonV Verified Mar 12, 2025

Love it!

I wanted a tinted sunscreen that would easily glide onto my skin. Some tinted moisturizers I find when you work into the skin you’re almost tugging at the skin to work it in. So I’m so glad this is nothing like that. It blends easily and beautifully onto my skin. It provides nice coverage and a soft matte finish. This is something I will definitely repurchase. I’m glad I didn’t let the mixed reviews stop me from trying this because I love it.

JoanBC Mar 11, 2025

Bought on my own. Similar to the Ilia tint, this serum tint blends in easily at first application. However, I find that if my skin is especially dehydrated (combo/oily), the tint accentuates my dry patches and my face’s natural oils causes it to separate. So if you’re in a dry or office environment all day, you may want to make sure to prep your skin well and hydrate with a face mist from time to time. The SPF is a plus here, but definitely have a base SPF on as well as you shouldn’t rely on...

A friend recommended this product and said it was better than the ilia tinted serum that she and I were both using. Although the color match tool online was way off once I got the correct color I do agree with my friend. The coverage is better, it goes on cleaner, and it lasts longer.

Great Features!

I have been using this product for a week and I loved its light to medium coverage. It is not greasy, nor heavy, it is light and soft.

Glad the expiration date on this isn't short because a little goes a very long way for me. The spf is more of a bonus with how little I'd use, but as a very fair ginger it's a welcome one. It's an everyday product for me. Price is good for amount of product. At first I feel like I'd have some pilling issues, but after adjusting my skincare routine I no longer have this problem. I plan to repurchase once I get a little closer to that expo date. I was not paid or gifted any product for this review.

Feels so natural!

I've been using the Ciele Skin Tint & Protect SPF 50, and it's quickly become a staple in my routine. The tinted serum gives a natural, radiant finish without feeling heavy or greasy. It blends seamlessly into my skin, evening out my complexion while still looking like skin — not makeup. The SPF 50 provides great sun protection without any white cast, which is a huge plus. I love that it’s lightweight, hydrating, and perfect for everyday wear. It gives that effortless, fresh glow with just...

Lightweight

I’m a foundation connoisseur and always love testing out the latest foundations! The Ciele Cosmetics Tint & PROTECT SPF 50+ definitely exceeds my expectations! I love how lightweight this product felt on my face! Lately I’ve been more into lightweight/medium coverage instead of the full coverage look. I would say that this product is definitely medium to buildable coverage. The finish is definitely natural and blended into my skin seamlessly! Another thing I love about this product was that...

A STAPLEEEEEE

After about two weeks of using this product I have to say I am obsessed! Where has this been my whole life ?!? I am a skincare fanatic and have an entire collection of sunscreens and skin tints. But this is my first time hearing about Ciele ! I received this product free in exchange for my honest review . I love the applicator ! It is a dropper making it easy to apply the exact amount you need. Not too much, not too little. Which is good because a little goes a long way. Anything more than...

I am a 22 year old beauty enthusiast who loves to try new makeup products. Ciele is not a brand I have experimented with before so I have excited to try out this product. This product is a tinted serum that is lightweight and contains SPF 50+. This serum had medium coverage and is buildable with a natural finish. This product is great for the summer time since it is lightweight and has sunscreen built into the product which I love because that means you won't have to apply normal sunscreen...

Impressive Glow & Coverage with SPF

I received the Ciele Tint & Protect SPF 50+ as part of a promotion in exchange for a review, and I’m really impressed with it! This is the first medium coverage tint I’ve used, and it exceeded my expectations. I paired it with the Ciele Prime & Protect SPF 30+, and the glow it gives is absolutely beautiful compared to other products. Even though it’s medium coverage, it does a great job of covering my dark spots and evening out my skin tone, especially when blended properly with a concealer....

One of my favorite skin tints!

A versatile product that offers both sun protection and a natural tint. The SPF 50+ coverage is a big plus, providing strong protection without feeling too heavy on the skin.At first, I thought the applicator was a bit weird, but I actually ended up liking it. It takes a little getting used to, but once I figured it out, it made application easy. I also appreciate how sturdy the packaging is—it feels durable and well-made, which is always a bonus. Overall, it’s a solid product with great...

New fav

This is just perfect for no makeup makeup look. I absolutely love the finish it gives and makes you look super put together without heavy makeup up.

Amazing tinted serum

I love how this Ciele Tint & Protect is also a serum and has SPF 50+. It literally has everything you need for beautiful and seamless makeup application. It gives me a natural finish look and does feel like second skin. I use it after applying the Prime & Protect SPF 30+. I honestly don’t need anything else. The coverage that the Tint provides is perfect for what I need. This tinted serum has been my go-to makeup application before going to work, especially when I’m rushing. Such an easy...

Lightweigt Protectin with a Glow!

I am a big fan of tints and have used many of the most popular tints on the market. I was so excited to receive the CIELE tint and PROTECT in exchange for my honest review. First, the packaging is gorgeous; the bottle looks and feels luxe and seems to be primarily glass. They provide recycling instructions on their website. I applied it with a brush and was able to build up to a Light/Medium coverage. (Less than the medium claimed) I am very pleased with this product so far. It felt like...

The Perfect Tint

I am in my 30s and always searching for complexion products that are easy for everyday but still look great. Ciele Cosmeticstint & PROTECT SPF 50+ has been that girl. I have been using shade 04 light - medium. The shades range is nice and honestly very forgiving, I probably could go up or down a shade. The application is seamless, blends like butter. It provides a great medium coverage and feels so light on the skin. I love how it gives a satin-like finish, which I feel is skin-like. This...

It’s ok

This product is really dry on the skin. Personally didn’t think it wears long term well. I have very dry/acne prone skin, so love the ingredients… but there are better skin tints out there.
