Flaunting skin which is smooth or looks as magical as a dolphin, this makeup trend makes use of highlighter and other shimmer-inducing beauty products. The term ‘dolphin skin’ is coined by A-list celebrity makeup artist, Mary Phillips who suggests piling on layers of highlighting beauty products until you get that stacked up spectrum of shine.
To kickstart your luminous journey and get that dolphin skin in an instant, you need to use an illuminating primer to base your skin. For the primer and other highlighting products, it’s best to use the liquid than the compact ones. Your highlighter shouldn’t wait after the foundation is applied. What you have to do is mix a few drops of highlighter with your liquid foundation. After applying foundation, go ahead and smearing layers of shimmer. You can even use glistening blush for added warmth and depth. In here, there’s no such thing as too much shine. In other words, imagine bathing in shining, shimmering, splendid highlighter or bathing from a pool of crystalline waters with the sparkle of the seas perpetually swathing your skin.
Oh, in the rare case it wasn’t crystal clear, no dolphins were harmed in the making of this social media beauty moment.
