Strobing. 

No, I'm not talking about raves; but a brand new makeup technique that's quickly taken over our Instagram feeds. 

Some of you may have seen this picture of Kim K next to a model who used Strobing instead of the tried and true highlighting and contouring we know and love.

And that's basically what strobing is meant to do; eliminate the need to contour. 

It's achieved by using a highlighter (in most cases, a shimmery one) on specific areas of the face to make them look more lifted.

Anything new? Nope. We're just now labelling a technique people have been doing for years but that's not to say it's ineffective.

After reading up on it, I realised that I "strobe" on a daily basis; so I thought it'd be cool to share some of my techniques and the affordable products I use to achieve that "strobed out" complexion.

Highlighted below are the main areas of the face we'll focus on.

Watch the video below to see how I achieved this look.
