Goodbye Contouring, Hello Strobing

First Kim K got us obsessed with contouring. A technique used to enhance the facial structure through makeup with subtle definition.

Now, we are putting the bronzer away, and picking up our highlighters to strobe.

Strobing (or reverse contouring) involves a high emphasis on dewy skin by highlighting where light would naturally hit your face - cheekbones, brow bones, centre of your forehead, down your nose, and on your chin.


It is a technique which involves a high emphasis on dewy skin and highlighting to give a bright, glowy look. 

This French trend, is a way of emphasising the beauty in a person’s face rather than changing the face altogether through contouring.

Here are my fave strobing tools:
