Strobing – Replacing Contouring This Year.
The basic use for a strobing technqye is to attract light to certain areas on your face, heightening your makeup and brightness and looking ‘lit up’.
The first thing to keep in mind is your jewelry. If you are going for accessories with your outfit, look for highlighters that compliment it. Gold jewelry will look flattering with gold and copper tones of highlighter whereas silvers and pinks will be complimented with neutral pinks to give a complete look.
Replace your finger technique with a brush and see the control you will have on the application. Go for an angled brush that will complete the look and a blender brush for cream highlighters and a denser look.
Next up, you have to know exactly where to apply your highlighter to make your face glow and not sweaty. Use it on the side of your area under the eyes to make your cheekbones more prominent with a fingers width from your eyes. If you want to make your eyes look bigger, apply it on the tear dot and for the last instant lift in your brows, apply it under the arch of your eyebrows. As for other tricks, apply it on your bridge to make it look slimmer and give yourself a pout by applying it on the bow of your lips.
