I have decided to do a review on the well known and popular Strobe cream by MAC.
If you are unaware of this product, let me assure you that this particular cream is no ordinary cream - MAC clarifies this statement below:
I wholeheartedly agree with the above and have realised that I can no longer just wear my foundation alone, it needs to be mixed in with the strobe cream. As a person who has mild acne with extremely dry and dull skin, this miracle cream has enabled me to feign what i thought i could never achieve - healthy looking, bright and fresh skin!
Wearing foundation alone had never let me achieve this unfortunately, so to my amazement and joy, it has allowed me to temporarily wear fresh and glowy looking skin.
I first received this as a free sample with one of my delivery purchases from MAC. I was always intrigued by this cream, knowing that a lot of people, MUA's and bloggers had rated it highly. Now I'm not surprised why lol.
I usually apply this by squirting out a pea sized amount and then mixing it with my foundation (Clinique Anti blemish) and then using my index finger, dotting it all across my face and then gently rubbing it into my skin in a downward motion. This gives my skin great coverage as well leaving it dewy, light and fresh :-)
It can even be used as a highlighter, detailinh the bridge of the nose, your cupids bow and above your cheekbones to enhance your features.
Even though I mix it with my foundation, it can be applied to the skin before or after you put on foundation. And it can even be worn alone.
I don't really have any complaints or issues against this cream, however I do know that most people would be scared to buy it due to its price tag (£22.50 - 50ml) But remember it is no ordinary cream, it is packed with loads of vitamins and green tea to help your skin, albeit temporarily, become radiant and alive.
No other cream has ever had the damn decency to do this for my long suffering skin, so purchasing this can be justified for me :P
Anyway, let me know what you think of it and if it has worked for you.xx
