Double duty budget make-up

accreditation
The Body Shop Shimmer Waves bronzer, R160
This gorgeous -looking bronzer contains different ‘waves’ of colour that can be swept together to create a believable all-over-glow. However, it also doubles up as a four-colour eye shadow if you use each shade individually.  

Revlon Grow Luscious mascara, R120
Want a lash treatment and mascara in one? Look no further than Revlon Grow Luscious mascara. Thanks to a special lash-enhancing formula that compliments the natural growth cycle of your lashes, this little guy promises to help your lashes grow longer and stronger while adding instant length and volume.

Yardley Oatmeal 2 in 1 blemish stick, R59,99
Due to an infusion of tea tee oil, known for its super-soothing and antibacterial properties, this handy little cover sticks blitzes blemishes while helping to hide them away.  

The Body Shop lip and cheek stain, R95
Another little gem from the The Body Shop, this marvellous multi-tasker can be used to tint your lips or create a pretty, natural-looking flush on your cheeks.

Also, if you’re looking for lip stain that offers even more double duty fabulousness, keep an eye out for Revlon Just Bitten lip stain. Due out in November, it’s a double-ended pen that boasts a lip stain on one end and a moisturising balm on the other. We love that once it’s on, it really does sit tight!
 
Essence 2in1 Kajal eye pencil, R29,95
Two eye liners for the price of one? What’s not to love! Their Black and White pencil, is particularly handy because you can use the black side to create sexy, cat-like eyes before flipping it over to line the inner rim of your bottom lids with the white. This is a trick make-up artists use to make your eyes look a little bigger while give you a fresher, more ‘awake’-looking appearance.

Annique Tinted Moisture Cover with SPF 15, R90
Want hydration, coverage and sun protection in a single tube? Get your mitts on Annique’s popular tinted moisturiser. It blends into any light to medium skin tone and is suitable for all skin types. It’s just the thing for when wearing full foundation feels like it would be a bit too much, but you don’t feel comfortable going fresh faced. To find a distributor near you, visit www.annique.co.za.

Essie Three Way Glaze, R89,95
A base coat, nail strengthener and top coat all in one, this single teeny little bottle does the job of three products all by its self. We also love that it leaves nails with a super-glossy, almost indestructible high shine finish.

Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant, R135
A soothing blend of petrolatum and beta-hydroxy, it would seem as though there’s almost nothing this iconic super salve can’t do. Use it to help relieve mildly chapped, dry skin - be it your lips or heels; comfort minor weather burns and scrapes; smooth down your brows and temporarily tame split ends.
