Stretch your budget with products that do more for less! These one-step wonders do the work of several products to make your daily routine lighter and your wallet heavier.
Cleansing Your Face
Your daily skin care routine can easily get complicated. Removing makeup, exfoliating, cleaning skin deep down—it can result in quite an arsenal of products! The quickest way to clean your face has to be a make-up removing cleansing wipe, like Garnier's Nutri-Pure Wet Cleansing Towelettes. Wipe away a day's worth of makeup, dirt and oil buildup with a few swipes and your face will be clean and radiant without ever even turning on the faucet.

Styling Your Hair
If you only use one product to style your hair, it should be Moroccanoil Light Oil Treatment. This brand of argan oil products offers many options but the beauty of the Light Oil is that is really does help nearly all hair types. The dry oil helps to strengthen hair follicles, add vitamins for shine, control frizz and restore lost proteins to damaged hair. Color-damaged and heat-damaged locks will really reap the benefits of this restorative one-stop-shop. And best yet, it even speeds up your hair's drying time and serves as a heat protectant when blow drying.

Moisturizing All Over
Summer is long gone, but glowing, sun-kissed skin is in year-round. Look for a body lotion that combines moisturizing benefits with subtle, buildable color. A moisturizer with a gradual, light color like True Blue Spa's Glow and Steady saves you the extra hassle of self-tanning, and allows you to have healthy color without the damaging effects of UV rays. Use daily, of course.

Multi-Purpose Makeup
Make-up products that can be worn in different ways definitely give you more bang for your buck. Bronzer that can double as eye shadow; lip stain that also works as blush. One product we don't think you can live without would be Bobbi Brown's Shimmer Brick in Bronze. So many shades in one product, it takes just a couple of minutes to add a natural-looking glow to your cheeks and dimension to your lids. Now that was easy!

Eye Shadow Palette
Palettes take the guesswork out of pairing colors and make it so easy to achieve multiple looks with one product in your purse. From light shimmer to accent your brow bone to smoky hues that can do double-duty as an eye liner, you can achieve awesome looks for day and evening. We found the ultra-versatile She Wears It Well palette by Anastasia, alluring for all eye colors and skin tones.
