If you are looking for a single beauty product that is a true multitasker, then hybrid lip and cheek tints should be at the top of your list. Their credibility lies not just in being free of dubious synthetic chemicals like silicones, petrochemicals, SLS, Parabens, and talc but also being loaded with antioxidants. These potent botanical extracts repair lip skin barriers and lock in moisture while also pigmenting the pout effectively. They blur the lines between skincare and makeup with an effortless dab on your lips, cheeks and even eyes. And, in under a few minutes you are ready. Celebrity makeup artist Bianca Louzado gives these a nod of approval,“Anything that cuts downtime for a working woman, as well as a busy girl on the go, gets my thumbs up.”
