Will Strobe Cream work on darker skin tones?

[monniej]

since i been using a product to even out my skintone my skin seems alittle lack luster when i apply my foundation. i've heard some good things about strobe cream, but i'm concerned about the pinkish hue. does it disappear into the skin or is it more like a mask? any suggestions are appreciated.

I have a natural pinkish color to my skin, but I was still wondering about this too. you know how makeup companies are with this kind of stuff Monniej. It looks fabulous on the light skin models, but when we put it on, it looks like we've been clapping chalkboard erasers for an hour, LOL!

Anybody else have the answer to this all-important question? I want to buy this strobe cream, but I don't want to spend my money just to look ashy.

I have never heard of it!

Moisturegleam will give the same effect as strobe cream, but has a golden sheen instead of the pink that strobe cream has.

Stop by a counter and get samples of both. Try them at home in natural light and see what you think.

Not to sound super stupid... but what is Strobe cream and what does it do exactly?

My understanding of Strobe Cream is that it can be used to illuminate the skin and make it glow. More information here.

Marisol is a big fan of Strobe Cream

So has anybody tried the moisture gleam?

 

[Aquilah]

I sure haven't... I've tried Strobe Cream, but I don't like the look it gives me.
