These Makeup-Skincare Hybrids Are Basically All I Wear on My Face These Days
I’ll be honest: One small silver lining of the pandemic has been skipping a full face of makeup every day. I used to love wearing makeup, but now it feels unnecessary—and annoyingly, it always ends up caked on my face mask anyway. No-makeup makeup days, once reserved for weekends, have become my go-to: a little concealer or color here and there to help perk up my look for Zooms, coffee runs, or the odd occasion I leave my borough.
Luckily, if the latest crop of product offerings is any indication, I’m not alone. Makeup-skincare hybrid products are all the rage. As we settle into a new routine of "skinimalism," it's all about sheer skin tints, barely there lash tints, and pretty much anything else that has the word “tint” in it. But it’s the added skincare benefits that set these products apart and make them worth using day after day. Without further ado, keep scrolling for the 15 makeup-skincare hybrids that are filling my cosmetic bag these days.
A peek at my standard no-makeup makeup look: tinted moisturizer, a touch of concealer, lash tint, and tinted lip balm.On days I want just enough coverage, this gel-like tinted moisturizer evens out my skin tone, lends a dewy finish, and adds sun protection.If you prefer mineral sunscreens, this is another fantastic tinted-moisturizer option. Plus, it’s made with a slew of skincare ingredients including hyaluronic acid and brightening licorice root extract. A lot of face serums give skin a glow, but this one literally contains light-reflecting pigment, making it the two-in-one you didn’t know you needed. Dab a bit on your cheekbones as highlighter, or mix in a few drops with your tinted moisturizer for a boost in both radiance and hydration.This serum acts like a primer, so you can apply it before tinted moisturizer, or you can skip it altogether for a glass-skin look courtesy of diamond mineral powder. There’s sunscreen, and then there’s Glowscreen, and those who have tried the latter know that it’s in a class all its own. The sheer, peachy tint helps even out skin tone, and it imparts a slight sheen that looks just as good over makeup, too (if that’s your speed).There’s a reason this under-eye balm became an instant best seller. In fact, there are several reasons: It hydrates and cools skin on contact, it instantly brightens dark circles, and it’s packed with skin-loving ingredients. Bonus: You can also swipe it on your cheekbones as a highlighter.On days when you just need a hint of concealer to look a little more like yourself, this vitamin-packed, serum-like formula does the trick. And the rollerball applicator? Genius.Three words: tinted eye cream. Tatcha combined the anti-aging properties of hyaluronic acid and its proprietary Hadasei-3 superfood blend with light-reflecting pigments and pearl extract for a formula that wakes up under-eyes right away and over time. Perfection.With castor oil, jojoba esters, and plant-derived protein, this lash tint is like wearing conditioner instead of mascara. Plus, it’s offered in black, brown, or clear so you can opt for a bit of color or none at all.I still love a Too Faced Better Than Sex moment for special occasions, but more often than not, I want a little color to help my lashes stand out. This moisturizing mascara adds just enough oomph, and the teeny brush gets to every lash.As comfy as a balm and as shiny as a gloss, these vitamin-enriched lip oils are a recent fave. There are seven sheer shades to choose from, plus a clear one that will take you right back to middle school (in the best way). From Bobbi Brown’s new beauty line, Jones Road, comes this multipurpose pot. Use it to moisturize lips or to add a sheer wash of color on cheeks or eyes. This formula is made with hyaluronic acid, which adds a bonus plumping effect you don’t often find in a balm. And how cute is the sporty tube?Don’t forget: Lips need sun protection too! This little balm has SPF 15 and comes in four universally flattering shades that look perfect far beyond the beach. The crowds go wild every time Glossier drops a new flavor of its jammy lip balms. The latest? Sweet Cookie Butter, complete with a sheer caramel hue.
If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
