If you’re on the lookout for different ways to stretch your dollar and get the most bang for your buck, one avenue you can do so is through your skincare products. While we have been conditioned to use an item for each step in our routine — cleanser, toner, essence, moisturiser — there are actually many ingenious and efficacious formulations that do more.

Using these multi-tasking skincare products saves you time when you’re feeling crunched. But it will also help you save money over time as you have fewer replenishments to make. Consequently, your vanity gets less cluttered too — a triple win in our books.

10 Multi-Tasking Skincare Products That Will Help You Save Time
Bioderma Sensibio H2O Micellar Water Reversed Pump Twin Pack & Mystery Gift (Limited Edition), $52.90 (500 ml)
image

This three-in-one product helps to cleanse, soothe, and remove makeup from the skin. Made up of surfactant molecules, this micellar water is a non-rinse water-based cleanser that attracts dirt, oil, makeup, and other pollutants. It also helps to decongest, calm and hydrate the skin while strengthening the skin’s natural barrier.

To use it as a cleanser on its own or a part of your double cleansing routine, simply soak a cotton pad with the micellar water, then wipe it across the face until the cotton pad is clean. No rinsing needed, you can directly apply your toner and serums right after.

The H2O Micellar Water comes in three different types depending on your needs: for sensitive skin, dehydrated skin, or oily and acne-prone skin. But they’re all formulated to be suitable for sensitive skin.
