What’s In It?
Part makeup, part skincare. M.A.C Cosmetics Strobe Cream contains antioxidant Green Tea to protect the skin from environmental damage, Jojoba Oil to brighten and hydrate dull complexions, and Mulberry Root Extract to improve the appearance of uneven skin tone.
How To Use It:
M.A.C Cosmetics Strobe Cream can be used pre-foundation in place of a primer, mixed with your liquid or cream foundation for dewy radiance, or as a face and body highlighter.
I personally wear light coverage foundations and tinted moisturisers, so I like to mix M.A.C Cosmetics Strobe Cream with my moisturiser as I prep my skin (can never have enough hydration), before I apply everything else.

Love it

“This product is honestly amazing. I use it to mix into matte foundations to make my makeup look more glowy/dewy and less chalky. Or I use it on its own when I’m not wearing makeup to give my skin an extra glow.”
