REVIEW | MAC Strobe Cream

I purchased the MAC Strobe cream last year in August and it has now become one of my favourite moisturisers. It was an impulse buy, normally I like to read reviews and feedback for makeup products before buying them, but I was going away and I had forgotten to pack my moisturiser after using it, bit of a lame excuse to go duty free shopping, but we’ve all done that at some point or the other right?


I don’t use it on a daily basis as I suffer from dry skin during the winter months, to help with that I use Cetraben Emollient Cream which I have been using for the last five years, it is cheap, does the job and available at local pharmacies, it can be brought on prescription or over the counter. Let me know if you would like me to review this, and I shall do a blog post.

Back to the Strobe cream, I have been using if for about six months now, it is a great base for make up on a night out, it leaves me with a luminous glow, and flawless finish. I definitely notice the difference to my make up when using the strobe cream. I think it holds my make up a lot better, and gives me a better finish then a normal moisturiser.


Not only does this leave your skin looking fresh & bright, but it’s also packed with a whole lot of good stuff, I personally didn't know this before purchasing, but it makes me happier with my purchase knowing that it contains vitamins, green tea and antioxidants, it may have said it on the packaging, but as I was aboard I didn't take too much notice. 

It’s only just now when I visited the Mac website to see how much it was priced I came across this information.

The cream is white and has a pearly sheen because of the iridecent particles it contains, this can be seen below:


 I think I picked this up for about £18, it is available on the Mac website for £23.50.

As always would love any feedback or comments

Have a great weekend!
