How to Get the Dolphin Skin Look
Viral makeup trends come and go, but it’s not very often that a trend goes viral twice. Thanks to the stickiest star at the Big Game, the Dolphin Skin look has gone viral again! But what is Dolphin Skin and how can you achieve it?
What is Dolphin Skin?
Dolphin Skin is all about the dewy glow. The dewier the better. It’s named after everyone’s favorite ocean mammal because of their ultra-smooth glistening skin that catches the sun. Using dolphins as inspiration, you can get a makeup look that has your complexion looking more plump, hydrated, and fresh out of the ocean like a baby dolphin. When going with the Dolphin Look, you can never be too dewy or glowy.
What Makeup Do You Need to Get Dolphin Skin?
Because of all the dewiness, a gripping face primer is a must. You want a makeup primer that’s sticky to grip your foundation all day long and ideally you want it to give you a little glow as well. For your foundation, choose a formula that will give you the coverage you want but also has dewy and light-reflective properties. Choose one that has skin-loving ingredients to give your complexion a soft-focus and dewy filter effect IRL. To complete your glowy look, choose a creamy lipstick with a satin finish in a pinky-nude. You want rich color and long-wear so you don’t have to touch up as often.
