One Product, Three Ways: 3 Multi-Purpose Skin Care Products

Multi-purpose products are great for many reasons. Let’s discuss three benefits: They cut down the amount of time spent on your beauty routine (hey, we’ve all got a schedule to keep), they free up space in your medicine cabinet (fess up, it’s practically overflowing), and they can save you some extra Benjamins along the way (spend that hard-earned cash elsewhere). Lucky for you, we found three products that work—yup, you guessed it—three ways. Sense the theme, here?

VICHY PURETÉ THERMALE 3-IN-1 ONE STEP SOLUTION

Micellar water is beloved for its ability to remove impurities from the skin’s surface, effectively take off makeup, and soothe the skin, all in one simple step. This formula by Vichy—enriched with cornflower extract and pro-vitamin B5—gently removes impurities and fortifies skin to leave it feeling hydrated, soft, and refreshed without tightness, over-drying, or an oily residue. Apply it over the entire face and eye area with a cotton pad using sweeping motions. But wait, it gets even better. There’s no rinsing required! Easy, peasy.

DECLÉOR AROMA CLEANSE 3-IN-1 HYDRA-RADIANCE SMOOTHING & CLEANSING MOUSSE

Cut your skin care routine short with this multi-use product. Formulated with papaya extract and hyaluronic acid, the cleansing mousse helps to protect against dehydration, exfoliates to remove dead skin cells from skin’s surface, and moisturizes for a healthy-looking, radiant complexion. What’s more, it’s free of parabens, mineral oil, and colorant. To use, work a small amount of the non-comedogenic gel/mousse into a lather with water in the palm of your hands. Apply it to facial skin and rinse. Follow up with your favorite moisturizer.

VICHY NORMADERM TRIPLE ACTION 3-IN-1 CLEANSER

A daily cleanser, gentle scrub, and clay mask all in one? You better believe it! Created for oily and combination skin types, the formula combines salicylic acid, glycolic acid, and micro-exfoliating LHA to remove impurities from the skin’s surface, unclog pores, and even the appearance of skin texture. To use as a cleanser or scrub, massage the formula onto skin in circular motions, and rinse well with water. To use as a mask to control excess oil, apply a thin layer to the face, leave to dry for 5 minutes and rinse off. Skin will be left clear and mattified.
