Tips For Strobing


So there’s contouring, non-touring and then there is strobing. If contouring is the full look, and non-touring the minimal one, strobing is the meeting point of the two! Folks, here are our best tips for strobing!

What is strobing

Strobing might be a somewhat ridiculous name as it only describes a makeup look with only highlighter and no contour. So basically strobing is when you highlight the peaks of your face without doing the shadow. The Tips For Strobingbeauty trend became a buzz last summer, but as it’s more of a way of makeup rather than a one-hit trend, it’s okey to gush about it this season too. If you want to follow the latest trend however, it’s the non-touring trend that’s the hit of the summer. It’s kind of a light strobing!

When to use strobing

As strobing is a lighter makeup look than contouring, it’s a favorable one during summer. The look is easy to achieve as you don’t need as many products or as much time. You only need a highlighter and do some light blending. Strobing is the way to go if you want to illuminate the face and give it the ultimate summer glow.

What to think about

Do your makeup as usual, but when you’re about to contour, you just highlight the face instead. You want to apply your highlighter on your cheeks, the tip of the nose, above your upper lip and in the center of your forehead (see full guide above). A cream is to prefer as it’s easier for it to work its way in the makeup look. Or a highlighter from a creamy palette. If you want to opt full natural, accentuate the peaks with some coconut oil!

Folks, what do you think about strobing (aka regular highlighter)?
