Lately, makeup trends have been less about makeup and more about skincare, letting natural beauty shine. Thick, cakey coverage has taken a backseat, while products like serums, face oils, cleansers, and toners are taking the wheel. But what if you want to keep your skin healthy while still correcting imperfections and getting some extra color or glow?
Enter serum-based makeup products. These hybrid foundations, blushes, and primers give you the perfect balance of skincare and cosmetic benefits, so it's no wonder they've become so popular. Packed with nutrients and active ingredients, these products hydrate and nourish while still providing coverage and color. Think of them like your skin but better, taking your natural beauty and enhancing it. Here are eight serum-based makeup products to try for yourself.
