The Multitasking Products You Need to Start Using Now!
allure.com
YVES SAINT LAURENT BABY DOLL KISS & BLUSH
Even if you forced us, we'd have a very hard
time choosing just one use for this combination lip-and-cheek stain.
Swipe the formula over your lips for a buildable matte stain, then dab
it onto the apples of your cheeks and blend it in with your fingertips
for a seamless rosy tint.
GIORGIO ARMANI EYE & BROW MAESTRO
This tiny pot of creamy pigment (available in nine shades) is shockingly versatile. Smudge it on with your fingertip for sexy smoky eyes, use a stiff angled brush to draw a precise cat eye,
or brush it through brows with a spooley to fill and tame them. Whether
you do one or all of the above, the waterproof formula is insanely
long-lasting.
What's
even worse than looking and feeling hungover? Struggling with a
complicated multistep makeup routine to make you look better. This
brightening concealer simplifies things by soothing and depuffing the
eye area as you swipe it on. No creases, no cakey finish—just a quick,
easy way to look more awake, even before you've had your coffee (er,
bacon, egg, and cheese).
DOLCE & GABBANA INTENSE CREAM EYE COLOR IN GOLDUST
Yes,
it's a long-lasting, crease-resistant eye shadow. But the superfine
shimmer and smooth texture also make it an amazing highlighter for all
complexions: Tap it onto your cheekbones, brow bones, Cupid's bow, and
the inner corners of your eyes for a luminous but subtle effect that's
not the least bit frosty.
Meet
the quintuple (when was the last time you heard that word?) threat
that's about to help you break your Drybar addiction. Smooth a dollop
through damp hair to help smooth frizz, lift roots, and add the
all-around bounciness you previously got only from a professional blowout.
Most
shine sprays focus on exactly one objective: adding a glassy,
reflective sheen. But this one also detangles stubborn snarls (you can
spray it on damp hair prior to styling), adds piecey definition, and
tames frizz, all without flattening fine hair (it doesn't have silicone,
the usual shine-enhancing suspect). Oh, and you can pick it up at the
drugstore for $5.
PANTENE ULTIMATE 10 BB CRÈME
When
a product makes ten specific claims—including smoothing, enhancing
shine, conditioning, controlling frizz, and providing heat protection—we
can't help but be skeptical. It can't possibly do all of those things
well, right? Wrong. It actually delivers on every promise, simplifying
our usual four-step styling routine while freeing up much-needed space
in our bathroom cabinets.
It's a moisturizer! It's body makeup! It's the best thing to happened to bruised, pasty, flaky skin since the original Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturizer
first hit drugstore shelves. A combination body lotion/skin
smoother/supersubtle self-tanner, it instantly blurs imperfections and
fills in uneven texture with silicone while the tiniest bit of DHA gives
skin more even tone over time. Bonus: It won't rub off on your clothes
or sheets.
Lena Dunham said it best: "Coconut oil
seems to do literally everything. It's the James Franco of oils." Use
this 100 percent organic version on your cuticles, lips, split ends,
stretch marks, dry skin, or as a makeup remover or shaving cream. (The
few things it can't do: paint nude portraits of Seth Rogen or post
selfies on Instagram.)
CHARLOTTE TILBURY MULTI-MIRACLE GLOW
This
thick, cream-to-oil balm melts away makeup while adding moisture to dry
skin. Or use it to soften chapped lips and rough cuticles, and even to
tame flyaway hairs. If accomplishing all of that isn't a miracle, we
don't know what is.
5 Beauty Picks We're Obsessing Over

It doesn't feel heavy like a long-wear
foundation or look cakey like one, either. But if you blend three drops
of this milky fluid over redness, splotchiness, or acne, your skin will
stay flawless for hours.
Vitamin C, papaya enzymes, and glycolic acid—this creamy face wash contains a blend of
After
smoothing on this dense, cushy formula at night, you'll realize that
wearing just any old day cream to bed is like sleeping on a thin Ikea
pillow.
heavy-hitting exfoliators that won't irritate skin.
The pivoting head and five ultrathin blades give a nick-free shave this fast.

Our Favorite Under-$20 Eye Creams (That Really Work)
You could rest cold tea bags on your eyes for
ten minutes, or you could swipe on this cooling rollerball. The light
gel inside contains caffeine to help shrink bags fast, and there's zero
stick factor, so you can layer on concealer immediately.
This gentle moisturizer is anything but wimpy: It's packed with some of our favorite hydrators—olive oil, coconut oil, and shea butter—plus soothing aloe vera, which means it delivers baby-soft skin, minus any inflammation.
This
lightweight, tinted serum pulls triple duty: It covers and brightens
dark undereye circles, while its cooling metal applicator soothes
puffiness. Plus, it contains anti-agers (niacinamide and n-acetyl glucosamine, for the chemistry majors) to reduce the appearance of lines and dark circles over time.
People
with sensitive skin get hangovers, too, you know. This roll-on eye gel
gently deflates puffy under-eyes with refreshing cucumber extract and
hydrating hyaluronic acid and glycerin.
This three-time Best of Beauty winner works on a time-release schedule. The retinol-spiked formula absorbs slowly to keep the tried-and-true anti-ager from irritating skin.
