What the gurus are saying

Gurus love the hydrating formula, dewy finish, and skincare ingredient blend, especially for dry or combination skin. The consensus is it applies smoothly, layers well under other products, and won't clog pores. The main split: some find it genuinely lightweight and glowy, while others feel it's heavier than marketed and can feel noticeable by day's end, particularly for oily skin types. Matte-finish preference or humidity concerns may be dealbreakers.

"I have been using this non-stop since the spring. I love the formulation. It's lightweight. It provides a light to medium coverage. You can build this up to a full coverage if you need to. And I love the ingredients in here. There's a lot of skin care ingredients like a triple hyaluronic complex which helps to deeply hydrate the skin. There's squaline in here, niainamide and of course the list goes on. This sits really nice underneath other types of makeup products like cream blushes, liquid blushes, cream bronzers. Everything that I have applied on top of this has sat really nicely. It's longwearing as well and it gives a natural dewy finish to the skin which I personally like. So, if you love matte skin, you probably won't like this unless you just use some translucent powder on top of it. But, I think this is going to be exceptional coming into the winter months when we lack that moisture and we're looking for that natural dewy glow to our skin. I think this is going to be exceptional and it's great for all skin types. I have combination skin and I'm also very acne prone. This never breaks me out. It doesn't clog my pores."

SEPHORA VIB SALE RECOMMENDATIONS | SPRING SAVINGS EVENT 2025 - SKINCARE, MAKEUP & HAIRCARE
"The one product that I feel you need to try is the new Milk Makeup Hydrogrip Gel Tint. I have it on my skin today and I can't get enough. I love how moisturizing this is. It gives that nice glow and dewiness to the skin. It just looks like your skin but better but healthier. And it's not greasy. It's not super shiny on the skin. It just gives this nice healthy glow to your skin and I just think it is beautiful. It is that true light to medium coverage. You could possibly build this up to a full. I'm actually quite content with the medium coverage that this gives. If you use a foundation brush this will give you more coverage. If you use a damp beauty blender or a sponge of some kind it will give you more of that sheer coverage. This has a trialic acid complex."

"It sets in really nicely and kind of melts into my skin. If you find it too glowy, you can use a little bit of powder to tamp it down. There are lots of ways that you can tweak this formula to make it work for you whether you have normal or more dry skin. It's a skin tint that needs a bit of skin care. It's a nice bonus to have a few skincare ingredients in your tinted moisturizer or your skin tint, but would this replace my skincare routine? Absolutely not. This also has a little bit more coverage than I would prefer in a skin tint. I definitely like the beauty blender application technique because it's just a little bit more of skin peeking through for a no makeup makeup look. But if you like a medium coverage, you're probably going to like this and you would probably do best to apply it with your fingers and then maybe blend it out a little bit with a brush. I scored this a three out of five on texture because it claims to be weightless and it definitely isn't weightless on the skin. Even with my dry skin, I can feel this product by the end of the day. And if you have oily skin, you're definitely not going to like the fact that this feels a little bit heavy on the skin. Or if you live in a humid climate, you're probably going to not like the fact that this has a little bit more weight than it claims to have. For hydration, definitely a five out of five. My dry skin loves this without any additional moisturizers to kind of boost it up."
