The rise of skinmalism (i.e. skin minimalism) has given rise to a new genre of beauty products; namely, skincare makeup hybrids. From serum-oil-primers and foundation spiked with hyaluronic acid, to tinted lip oils and vitamin C-laden skin tints, more and more dual purpose products appear to be cropping up. The key benefit of skincare makeup hybrid products lies in their time-saving abilities, allowing you to cut a step or two out of your skincare routine.

The Best Clean Skincare & Makeup Products That Actually Work
Whether you’re an ardent supporter of the skinmalism trend, looking to save a little extra coin, or simply desirous of avoiding perpetual skincare routine induced lateness, these are the best skincare makeup hybrid products on the market.
1. Ciaté London Dewy Skin Glass Glow Skin Tint
A semi-sheer skin tint, the Ciaté London Dewy Skin Glass Glow Skin Tint provides light to medium coverage while nourishing the skin with hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, and dragon fruit extract, taking the place of a moisturiser and foundation.
2. Clarins Lip Comfort Oil Intense
A highly pigmented iteration of the cult-favourite Clarins product, the Clarins Lip Comfort Oil Intense provides rich, lipstick-like colour with a glossy finish while hydrating and softening the lips with hazelnut, jojoba, and cranberry oils.
3. Trinny London BFF De-Stress Tinted Serum
Made with plumping and smoothing hyaluronic acid as well as a unique NP-TriOX technology, the Trinny London BFF De-Stress Tinted Serum works to target the effects of stress on the skin and boost hydration levels, while providing lightweight, buildable coverage.
4. Flower Beauty Supernova Celestial Skin Elixir
This innovative (and very budget-friendly) product combines a nourishing serum and primer in one savvy formula. With jojoba, camellia seed, and squalane oils, as well as the addition of pearlescent pigments, the Flower Beauty Supernova Celestial Skin Elixir provides a dewy, radiant base for glowy, almost luminescent makeup application.
5. Kosas Tinted Face Oil
More akin to a face oil than a foundation, the Kosas Tinted Face Oil combines a supercharged mix of avocado, jojoba, rosehip, meadowfoam, rosehip, and raspberry oils with mineral pigments, providing intense nourishment with lightweight (and surprisingly long lasting) medium coverage. Perfect for normal to dry skin types looking for a light, even base.
6. Milk Makeup Kush Mascara
While this one definitely errs more on the makeup side, the conditioning effects of the hemp oil in the Milk Makeup Kush Mascara are nothing to scoff at. Hemp oil works to promote healthier lashes as the formula’s heart-shaped fibers individually coat each lash for a soft, feathered, clump-free effect.
