Working from home has made chic loungewear our current fashion uniform while beauty-wise, skincare high definitely skyrocketed. For many women though, putting makeup in the morning help them get their day started. However, our usual full face of makeup feels like too much effort. Time to pare down your routine, kikay kit, and beauty budget with multitasking makeup products to get you pretty and polished without the fuss.
NARS The Multiple Stick
Often credited as the product that started the multitasking makeup category, this is designed for use on the eyes, cheeks, and lips.
It comes in a range of complexion-friendly shades, including NARS’ best-selling Orgasm — a flattering peachy pink shade that looks like a natural flush. Just swipe, blend with fingers, and you’re ready to go! Available for P2,250 at Rustan’s The Beauty Source.
Nudestix Nudies All Over Face Color
With masks covering the lower half of our faces, playing up our eyes and cheeks is the best way to add color.
Nudestix makes it easier by taking that complexion stick concept, and adding a brush to the other end. This allows for more hygienic application of the blush and bronze colors (Matte line) or the bronze and glow shades (Glow line). Available for P2,100 at Sephora PH.
Stila Convertible Color
If you find yourself struggling to match your blush and lip color, skip the problem by using the same product for both!
Stila’s offering has been around since 2000, and continues to be a classic fave even among trendy beauty fans. The secret lies in highly blendable but fade-proof color, and who can say no to that pretty embossed case that matches the color within? Available for P1,050 at Rustan’s The Beauty Source.
3CE Take A Layer Multipot
The ultimate must-have product for K-beauty fans, this tiny compact packs a big punch of pigment that’s safe to use as eyeshadow as well as cheek and lip color.
It’s one of the few products that performs well with each type of application, as it’s easy to blend, doesn’t crease, and stays on all day long. Available for P1,485 at Sephora PH.
Ellana Multipurpose Color Cream
For a budget-friendly alternative to cream pan colors, local brand Ellana Minerals offers a multipurpose pigment for the eyes, cheeks, and lips.
The emollient formula applies smoothly without sacrificing color, and it’s infused with jojoba oil to nourish skin as well. Available for P299 at ellanacosmetics.com.
Blk Cosmetics Creamy All Over Paint
Don’t you sometimes wish you could magically transform your look with the wave of a wand?
blk Cosmetics makes it possible with this cute little tube! It features a fluffy liquid-cream formula that you can simply dot and seamlessly blend on your lids, lips, and cheeks. Available for P399 at blkcosmetics.com.ph
Happy Skin Color Play Multi-Use Mousse
Not a fan of sticks and pots? Channel your artistic side with this paint tube-inspired all-over pigment from homegrown brand Happy Skin Cosmetics.
Just squeeze a few drops and apply it all over the face for an easy monochromatic look. Be careful though; the colors are very pigmented so a small amount can go a long way! Available for P649 at happyskincosmetics.com.
With these multifunctional cosmetic products, you do not have to spend too much money, time or energy to prettify yourself on the daily.
