The Best Multi-Tasking Beauty Products

Time: it’s the one thing in life we never seem to have enough of, no matter how hard we try. So if you feel like you’re in a mad rush to get out the door every morning, you’re not alone. Enter, multi-tasking beauty products. These 19 goodies will rock your world - and give you a chance to press snooze. Maybe even twice...

RECORD TIME

When you need to speed up the process of washing your hair because you’ve been too preoccupied reading up on current events (scrolling through Facebook) in bed, keep these two-in-one products on standby.

try these: TONI&GUY Hair Care 2 in 1 Anti-dandruff Shampoo and Conditioner, VO5® 2 in 1 Elixir™ Shampoo & Conditioner, TRESemmé Cleanse & Replenish 2 in 1 Shampoo and Conditioner

THE POT OF GOLD

Cut two make-up steps down to one with the help of a multi-tasking product for your lips and cheeks. Not only will you save valuable handbag space, but you’ll avoid the added stress of finding a blush that matches your lippie. Now that’s savvy thinking.

try these: Benefit Posietint, The Body Shop Lip and Cheek Stain, ModelCo CHEEK + LIPS, Bobbi Brown Pot Rouge

DOUBLE-DUTY

For those days when you have exactly 8.37 seconds to brush and style your hair (and look presentable for that morning meeting), get these goodies on your side.

try these: Philips ProCare AirStyler, VS Sassoon Big Hair Styler

ROLL CALL

When you wake up too frightened to look in the mirror, you need to be able to reach for a concealer that covers all the signs of a restless sleep. These roll-on ones reduce puffiness and hide dark circles - talk about teamwork!

try these: Innoxa Restore Lift & Firm Concealer, Garnier Skin Naturals BB Eye Roll-On Light, Physicians Formula Youthful Wear™ Youth-Boosting Dark Circle Corrector + Concealer

BETWEEN THE EYES

No time to get out the eyeliner and shadow? No worries! Just grab a two in one stick. They’re a lazy girl’s dream.

try these: Innoxa 2 in 1 Eye Liner & Eye Shadow Stick, e.l.f. cosmetics Studio Eyeliner & Shadow Stick, NYX Two Timer - Dual Ended Eyeliner

SAVING GRACE

Well, isn’t this nifty. Ever gone to apply foundation, only to discover you’re out of serum? These foundations have skin care qualities, too, so consider that problem nixed.

try these: Rimmel London Lasting Finish 25 HR Foundation with Comfort Serum, Yves Saint Laurent Youth Liberator Serum Foundation, Max Factor Ageless Elixir 2 in 1 Foundation + Serum

I love almost anything that will save me time, but not the 2 in 1 shampoos.

Always in a rush

Makeup Maven 25 Aug 2015 7:05 PM

i'm not sure about this tips. I usually just skip the shadow and just do a tightline and mascara with some bb cream, blush and lippie and stick my hair in a pony or messy bun to speed up my routine.

AndreaJW 25 Aug 2015 11:27 AM

I haven't used 2 in 1 shampoo conditioner in over 30 years lol

tarameoww 25 Aug 2015 10:55 AM

I dont think these tips would help me drop my beauty time.

I've tried some eyeshadow sticks, but I don't find them easier or quicker to use than standard eyeshadows.

Elefante 8 Apr 2015 11:28 PM

Concealer is a saviour!

Gilded 5 Apr 2015 1:51 AM

I don't think I can rush-style my hair with hot tools. If I'm in a rush I'll just do a chic pony or low bun. But to use hot tools in a rush? No wayyy.

I still at least 25 minutes lol

Bkz1 2 Apr 2015 8:11 AM

great!

Spunkx 2 Apr 2015 3:41 AM

I need one from each category for my ever increasing rushed mornings!! I have been known to use my lippy as a rouge.

SatanLovesMe 1 Apr 2015 11:03 AM

2-in-1 shampoo & conditioner?! Oh please BH.. no. Never ok.

Beautybabe140194 1 Apr 2015 8:32 AM

Great article

Vi 1 Apr 2015 12:30 AM

I'd like to try the 2 in 1 lip and cheek product. Sounds great

stackcats 31 Mar 2015 11:55 PM

Eyeshadow crayons are great when used on the go!

reni267 31 Mar 2015 2:35 PM

Nothing makes my getting ready quicker. I might quickly do my hair but my make up has to be done properly. I have been ready in 20 minutes and that's on fast mode, otherwise I take my time.

Turquoise Nails 31 Mar 2015 1:36 PM

I love mixing a pump each of my foundation and moisturiser for an easy base when I am running late!

Rpear 31 Mar 2015 11:41 AM

Haha I love these tips! I have my morning rush all timed into 10 mins including shower light makeup and work attire !

bmill229 31 Mar 2015 11:22 AM

Great tips.

VivaliciousChic 31 Mar 2015 10:28 AM

Bb cream is a definite lifesaver, but i stilll love using sunscreen before my bb cream

Scarlett_Angel 31 Mar 2015 9:49 AM

A good quality BB Cream that provides moisturise, SPF, skincare and enough coverage - no need for concealor. Tinted lip balm.

Miss_Lee 31 Mar 2015 9:43 AM

I love anything that saves time! The eyeshadow/eyeliner combo sticks sound great.

JaneyPooh 31 Mar 2015 9:36 AM

I have very simple routines and make up so that I will have time to do it.

Haniibee44 31 Mar 2015 7:53 AM

I love multitask products...but if I'm in a rush I usually skip foundation

Thepinkshoe 31 Mar 2015 3:16 AM

I love Posietint! The NARS multiples are also great for multi tasking.
