Ciele Cosmetics is a newly launched SPF product brand that beauty lovers are excited about, given that Sephora is involved with the brand and its niche is high-quality SPF makeup.

Pronounced as "See-elle" the SPF makeup brand was founded by makeup artists Cerre Francis and Nikki DeRoest. Nikki has worked with some of the most prominent makeup brands including Bobbi Brown, Stila, and Hourglass. Cerre and Nikki launched Róen Beauty, a clean beauty brand, before launching Ciele.

High-factor SPF only exists in some concealers, blush, and foundations as it is difficult to add sunscreen to makeup without altering the product's performance. Adding sunscreen tends to make the result chalky as zinc oxide leaves a white cast on darker skin tones.

Moreover, added regulation around makeup with SPF has to undergo extensive FDA testing, making it time-consuming. But as sunscreen is an essential step in skincare, more makeup with SPF is in high demand.

With Ciele launching SPF-infused makeup in the SPF products category, one can buy makeup products that protect against UV/UVA rays. This will make mid-day touch-ups easy and convenient.
