It delivers all-day hydration and a luminous finish, allowing for use alone, as a primer, or as a targeted highlighter.

MAC Strobe Cream in Bronzelite is engineered to deliver an immediate boost of radiance and hydration. Its unique formula with iridescent Crystal Pearls in a warm bronze hue mimics the natural glow of healthy skin, moving away from an artificial, glittery appearance.
As a Moisturizer: Applied to clean skin, it immediately provides a dewy finish and a subtle, all-over bronzy glow, making skin look more awake and refreshed.
As a Primer: When used under foundation, it creates a luminous canvas, allowing your foundation to sit smoothly and appear more vibrant. The Bronzelite shade can add warmth to cooler-toned foundations or enhance existing bronzy tones.
As a Highlighter: Dabbing a small amount onto high points of the face (cheekbones, brow bone, bridge of nose, cupid's bow) delivers a concentrated, yet natural-looking, bronzy highlight. It blends seamlessly into the skin, avoiding harsh lines.
For a subtle, everyday glow: Mix a pea-sized amount with your regular moisturizer or liquid foundation before application.
For a 'lit-from-within' effect: Apply a thin layer all over your face after skincare, then follow with a light coverage foundation or tinted moisturizer.
For targeted radiance: After applying your full face of makeup, use your fingertips or a small brush to pat Bronzelite onto your cheekbones, blending gently.
Daytime to Evening: The Bronzelite shade is perfect for adding warmth and dimension to both daytime and evening looks. It catches the light beautifully, enhancing facial contours.
Using MAC Strobe Cream - Bronzelite is straightforward.
Prepare Skin: Begin with freshly cleansed and toned skin.
Dispense Product: Squeeze a small amount (pea-sized for all-over, tiny dab for highlighting) onto your fingertips, a brush, or a sponge.
Apply:
All-over hydration/glow: Gently massage into your face and neck, similar to a regular moisturizer, ensuring even distribution.
Under foundation: Apply a thin layer evenly before your foundation.
As a highlighter: Pat onto desired high points of the face (e.g., cheekbones, bridge of nose) and blend with your fingers or a sponge until seamless.
Skincare: Compatible with most skincare routines. Apply after serums and before sunscreen (if using SPF not mixed with Strobe Cream).
Makeup: Works beautifully under liquid, cream, and powder foundations. Can be layered over cream or powder blushes/bronzers for added luminosity. It pairs well with other MAC products.
