After months of winter hibernation, our main goal in the summertime is to be out in the sunshine as much as possible — which means we’re constantly on the lookout for beauty products that can pull double duty and get us out the door that much faster. You know the ones: the makeup-skin-care hybrids that not only cut your getting-ready routine in half but also maximize the benefits you’re getting out of ’em in the long run. (We’re looking at you, tinted SPFs!)
Never ones to keep a good beauty secret to ourselves, we’ve rounded up the latest miracle-working multitaskers on our radar right now — all of which will put in overtime when it comes to delivering all kinds of results. Think: an Australian Gold facial sunscreen that lends just as much of an even, matte finish as it does reliable UV protection; a fruity, tropical lip tint with overnight-mask-like levels of hydration; and colorful, chip-free polish that smooths nails with every swipe. Seven ways to step up your summer beauty routine, ahead.
This tinted mineral sunscreen is about to kick your usual coverage to the curb: Not only is it formulated with SPF 50 for serious sun protection, it also lends an even, matte finish to skin with a fresh, powdery-clean feel. Foundation, who?
