New Smashbox Multitasking Hybrids

Smashbox Hybrid Luminizing Primer on Nordstrom.com

Smashbox’s new Green Room collection includes some very interesting and uber-desirable “hybrid” products.

Chief among them is the Smashbox Hybrid 2-in-1 Luminizing Primericon ($32, Nordstrom), which uses a dual chamber tube to brilliantly combine two of my ultimo-fave Smashbox products: Artificial Light and Photo Finish Foundation Primer.

The primer’s dual chamber tube dispenses both products together so that you can get a time-saving combined dose of both face primer and luminizer.

The other multi-tasking product in the Green Collection is the Hybrid 2 in 1 Color & Shine Lip Glossicon ($19, Nordstrom).

Available in three shades, this new gloss contains an inner chamber that contains lip color and an outer chamber that contains a clear gloss.

This “tube within a tube” design is intended to dispense two products that, when combined, are supposed to give you the “perfect mix of color and shine.”

These glosses, however, seem a bit gimmicky. Aren’t all glosses supposed to provide a perfect mix of color and shine…regardless of how they’re dispensed? Nevertheless, this is definitely still an interesting product that’s worth checking out.

Has anyone tried these Smashbox Hybrid products yet? What do you think of them?
