How To Get Ridiculously Perfect-Looking Skin

RAd Hourani backstage

I’m pretty dang obsessed with Rad Hourani for making lots of hard-edged, androgynous black clothes that look good on girls and boys. Yesterday, the show did not disappoint, but what I’m really here to talk about is how pitch-perfect the makeup was. The obvious go-to would be lots of dark liner or purple-stained lips but MAC makeup artist Hung Vanngo had a fresh idea—to contrast the rock star zippers and gorgeous metallic accents with the dewiest, most luminescent skin I’ve ever seen up close. Hung told me he wanted the skin to look healthy and here is his secret weapon: MAC Strobe Cream. It’s loaded with green tea and other antioxidants to perk up dull skin and contains all kinds of iridescent particles that reflect the light in a way that’s glowy—as opposed to Paris Hilton glittery (yuck)—and blinds anyone gazing upon your beautiful mug to any and all imperfections. In short, it’s the easiest way to fake perfect skin ever. Just use it as a primer, dab a bit of concealer around your nose and any problem areas, and you’re done. That’s it. Now get outta here.

I ran out of Strobe Cream a few months and have slacked on buying a new tube. It is the best thing ever to wear either solo or under makeup. Highly recommend.

Oh, the downsides to being a poor, poor college student. Any $30 makeup is out of my range. Especially since this Strobe Cream doesn’t sound like it will be able to cover the latest few red acne spots my teenage hormones have decided to curse me with.

That being said, I’ll keep it on my list of things to try when I have the money.
