Strobe.

[Kelly!]

I'm fairly new. Never have posted.

Who all here likes the strobe line? I think it's very nice and sheer. I love the lip conditioners. I just however bought the "Strobe Cream" and am confused on how you use it exactly. Any advice?

You can mix it with your foundation, or put it on your face before your foundation. It's great for the glowy/dewy look

An m/a put it on my face with a 187 brush, and then put foundation on top.

exactly what she ^ said. in my opinion, i honestly don't see much of a difference when i mix my foundation with strobe cream. the only good thing about it for me is that it thins out my studio fix fluid when i feel that it's too thick. but i can just use my moisturizer for that.

I am looking forward to getting Strobe liquid. A MA used it on my under foundation and I liked the way it looked.

You may not be able to see much of a difference because even though Strobe Cream is very opalescent and reflective, Studio Fix Fluid is a very opaque matte-finish foundation. It will show through a bit, leaving your skin with a slightly dewy natural-matte finish.

I personally love the Strobe Liquid under the Studio Fix Fluid. It gives that slight touch of dewyness for that healthy look. Great for more oily skins that don't need the heavy moisture of the Strobe Cream.

I love this collection a lot more than I thought I would... I might buy a back up of Strobe Blossom today! I've been using Strobe Cream for 4 years.. I didn't really like the liquid.

Sorry to butt into your thread, but I was wondering where Prep&Prime Face Protect goes into the mix.

P&P, Strobe, Foundation?

or

Strobe, P&P, foundation etc?

Strobe Cream is a moisturizer so it should be applied first, then Prep + Prime, then makeup.

Strobe Liquid Lotion isn't as much of a moisturizer, so I would do a moisturizer, Strobe Liquid, Prep + Prime, then makeup.

Mixing it with you foundation basically, or you can use it as a
moisturizer on dull skin. By the way strobe cream is GREAT for going to a club because all the lights make your face look amazing.

After founation, I like to pat it on heavily on my cheekbones and then apply Lightscapade MSF or Benefit High Beam on top to create a healthy, glowy highlight!
