# Perfecting Serum Hybrids Farsali's 'Skintune Blur' Serum Doubles as a Pore-Reducing Primer By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2018-08-23 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skintune-blur References: [instagram](https://www.instagram.com/p/BmyXsOSHoAp/?utm_source=ig_share_sheet&igshid=115uj5tjmulp4) & [shop.farsali](https://shop.farsali.com/products/skintune-blur) Following the release of its viral antioxidant-rich Farsali Unicorn Essence, Farsali is now launching another [hybrid primer serum](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wake-up-radiant-elixir) called 'Skintune Blur.' This new primer and serum is said to have a [brightening and blurring effect](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brightening-face-primer) on the skin that reduces the look of pores and imperfections. The formula is ultra-lightweight and hydrating, which makes the multipurpose product ideal for use with or without makeup—Farsali recommends a 1:1 ratio of the product to one's foundation for creating a "blur filter" effect. Additionally, the product may also be used with the brand's Unicorn Essence for an even more "magically illuminated blur." Some of the potent ingredients that can be found in the cruelty-free, vegan product include brightening Vitamin C, mushroom-derived poria cocos to soothe the skin, as well as conditioning cucumber extract. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.7/10 - Popularity: 12% | Activity: 60% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Cosmetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/cosmetics) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Hybrid Beauty:** The release of Farsali's 'Skintune Blur' Serum highlights the trend of combining multiple skincare benefits into one product. - **Blur Effect:** The blurring effect of 'Skintune Blur' Serum taps into the trend of creating a smooth and poreless complexion. - **Multipurpose Products:** Farsali's 'Skintune Blur' Serum reflects the trend of developing skincare products that can be used alone or as a base for makeup. ### Where This Applies - **Beauty and Cosmetics:** The Beauty and Cosmetics industry can explore the opportunity of developing their own hybrid serums to cater to the demand for multi-functional skincare products. - **Skincare:** The Skincare industry can take advantage of the blur effect trend by creating innovative products that provide a flawless appearance. - **Makeup:** The Makeup industry can capitalize on the multipurpose product trend by launching foundations and primers that can be mixed to achieve a 'blur filter' effect. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Blurring Primer Sticks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pdrn-spirulina-poreless-primer.md) - [Oil-Free Primer Formulas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smashbox-cosmetics.md) - [Refreshing Mattifying Primers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cooling-blur-mattifying-primer.md) - [Active Ingredient Makeup Primers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/conceal-perfect-blur-out-smoothing-primer.md) - [Blurring Serum Skin Tints](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blurring-serum-skin-tint.md) - [Soft-Blur Priming Moisturizers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/great-skin-priming-moisturizer.md) - [SPF-Primer Hybrids](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/multimodal-sheer-mineral-sunscreen.md) - [Blurring Primer Sunscreens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blurscreen.md) - [Kefir-Powered Skin Barrier-Enhancing Primers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skin-glow-primer.md)
