What the gurus are saying

A natural, no-makeup finish that still evens and perfects skin. Reviewers love how this lightweight serum delivers coverage without looking like makeup, especially for mature skin, blending beautifully and lasting through travel and heat; you're unlikely to use enough for the full SPF 50, so layer with a separate sunscreen. Apply with the dropper and tap in with fingers for more control, or use a brush to sheer it out for a lighter finish.

"The CL skin tint has a natural finish, one that I think more people should know about. I have just started playing with this one and I'm obsessed."

"This is fabulous for like everyday if you're somebody who wants SPF in your makeup. It's a mineral SPF, by the way, which is fabulous. And it also just kind of like evens out the skin tone but doesn't look like makeup at all."

Here's the Makeup I Packed to Disneyland 🤩
"I brought the CL Tint and Protect Tinted Serum because I felt like this would be a great airport kind of a foundation, which I ended up doing. I wore this on the days where I traveled, and on the Disney days it was actually a little bit hotter than we were anticipating, so the longevity in this was really nice to have. I applied it with my favorite foundation brush, all over the face, focusing most of the product on the cheeks and then blending it inward, and the shade I use in this is 0.5 Neutral. It's literally a perfect match for me, which is so nice. There were situations where my baby was napping and I had to get ready in the dark, and I did my makeup literally in the dark one time, but I didn't have to worry about it because I feel like this product just performs so beautifully and matches so well that I wasn't really stressed about it. When she woke up I looked at my makeup and it looked pretty good for not being able to see half of my routine."

"I love a skin tint for mature skin. It just gives that beautiful light but skin perfecting coverage. I'm going to use the CL Tint and Protect Tinted Serum today, in the shade Light Number 3. I finally found the dropper to this. You just pull the cap off and there the dropper is. I like to apply this on the back of my hand because I have more control over how much product I'm using. I like to apply with my fingers, I just tap it in. My next tip is to use a brush to whisk away some of the product so you get true skin peeking through, with a little extra coverage on my chin to cover up that redness. I just think this is a more mature look than having that heavier foundation."

"I love the CL Tint and Protect Tinted Serum. It's newer, I think it's been out maybe 16 or 18 months. It has a little bit more of a moisturizing feel to it, whereas the other one kind of dries down to a more satin finish. It's going to stay in my skin tint rotation because it's just that lightweight, no makeup makeup look that I absolutely love."

"This is a beautiful thin serum textured skin tint. I absolutely love it. I've been reaching for that all summer long."

"This is the CL Tint and Protect Tinted Serum, it's an SPF 50, but of course you're not using enough to get SPF 50 out of it, so always wear a sunscreen underneath. This is beautiful, I love this, this is what I'm wearing today, and I have been reaching for this so much more than any other foundation since I got it back in April. Every time I make a video and people are like, oh my God your skin looks so beautiful in today's video, what were you wearing, please link the makeup, it's usually this. So this is great, I love it. If you haven't tried this yet, give it a try."
