I tested it in the store and broke out like crazy by the end of the day.

For me at least, it's not shimmery / intense enough to be used on a highlight as it's own so I either mix it in with foundation or apply it under my foundation, like a moisturizer. I find if I mix it in, it seems to work better for me. Since I cake on so much damn foundation I think I cover the strobe cream completely lol, so no shimmer or anything shows through. Thus, I have to mix it in. 😭😭 They have a $10 smaller size bottle which may be a better option before you spend $ on the full size :)

I love it!! Cos it hydrates my dry skin esp during winter. Love the smell too. I put it as a moisturizer if I use my Mac foundation. Then I use the Benefit Porefessional to hide my disgusting pores. And it just glows naturally. I have no experience in breaking out.

Strobe cream use to give me nightmares!! I had an artist try it on me years ago as a subtle highlight. It looked GREAT!! I bought a tube the same day. So I got the bright idea to apply it ALL OVER my face under my foundation instead of using it the way the artist suggested. I thought I looked great. Couldn't tell me nothing. Got to school and I couldnt figure out why people were staring at me crazy hard. Come to find out it was because my face was literally glowing white. When I took a look in a mirror in natural light I wanted to crawl under a rock and die!! So what happened to me is fair warning...use this with a light hand and not all over unless mixing with your foundation or bb cream.

I prefer the strobe liquid because it has a thinner consistency.. I usually use it for dryer skin under foundation. You can also use as a highlighter under or on top of your makeup but I prefer to use it underneath makeup for a more subtle glow.

This is helpful.
I plan to get the smaller size next wk when the Osbourne line launches.. I'm still going to give it a try.

About the only way to use it is to mix it with your foundation for a dewy look, or use a tiny amount to highlight. I would recommend the travel size first if the carry it still, it will last forever.

This stuff is beautiful under foundation as a moisturizer. I use it under my primer and foundation. Gives a subtle glow all day :-)

Sorry to hear @natalie and @tiffany:( I bought the small travel size to try it out first. I must say, it does a nice job at keeping my tzone at bay... that a plus! I shall try it under: primer and foundation or as a highlighter. thanks ladies!!
