It's cocktail time! But before you go and mix up that gin and tonic (ugh, yum,) know that we're talking about beauty cocktails. First, let's go through these hair, makeup, and skin mixtures, and then you can go ahead and hit up HH.

The concept of beauty cocktails is simple. It's when you mix or layer two or more products in order to get a desired effect or treat a specific issue, and you probably do it all the time without even knowing it. Have you ever layered two nail polishes or dropped a bit of oil into your moisturizer to boost the hydration factor? Yep, you've created a cocktail.

Today, InStyle associate beauty editor Marianne Mychaskiw and MIMI editor Victoria Moorhouse took to Facebook Live to share some of their very favorites, plus a few beauty tips, tricks, and secrets they live by. Click play to get the lowdown and be sure to check out the shoppable list (score!) of the cocktails mentioned in the segment, below.
