Clean, cruelty-free skincare brand Versed is beloved for bestsellers like its cleansing balm and its gel-cream moisturizer, and it's now, it's dropping Versed Makeup, its first color collection to share "makeup that's good for your skin."
Like many brands that are currently dominating the beauty space, Versed is bringing skin-caring cosmetics to the market, and using hybrid formulas to speak to the needs and desires of consumers who desire immediate visible improvements and long-term benefits. The Skin Solution Multi-Serum Skin Tint with Mineral SPF 40, for example, appeals to consumers who wish skin tints had more coverage yet don’t like the heavier feel of a foundation.
Coming soon to Target, Versed Makeup also introduces products like the Face Diffuser Multi-Tasking Brush and the Shade Swipe Blush Stick.
