It sounds silly, taking beauty inspiration from a simple glazed doughnut, but this is what beauty does best.

Industry shapers turn to everyday items and form trends, teasing out the possible textures, tones and structures.

So hear us out when we say that doughnut skin is a trend worth reading more about.

Glowy skin isn't going anywhere – we've seen various incarnations, from glass skin to 'dolphin' skin.

The glazed doughnut look is slightly amped up, purposefully enhanced and intentionally light-catching, concentrating on a higher gloss texture without pearl or other finishes.

The glow is clear leaving skin looking healthy.

It puts the focus on the skin most of all in a makeup look.

Makeup artist Levi-Jade Taylor tells Metro.co.uk: 'Doughnut skin may be the newest undertake glowy skin, and the goal would be to look like a gorgeous glazed doughnut.

'It may sound complicated but essentially we're trying to showcase those glorious cheekbones with a healthy looking sheen.'

She's come up with look on models lots of times, so has some suggestions on how to make it happen.

She says: 'Skin prep is key for this. Be sure that your skin is hydrated, and I love to use mists and oils to do this look.

'Press in the oil towards the skin with your palms, concentrating on the high points such as cheek and brow bones.'

Levi-Jade's favourite goods are La Roche Posay Hyaluronic Skin Mist and Augustinus Bader Face Oil.

Next she'll go in with makeup, using something which 'creates that sheer, glowy finish that looks effortless, like Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter. I apply it as my foundation step, then go in with concealer.'

This creates a simple canvas that's at the top of glow with adaptable coverage to suit your preferences.

'Finally I add a little bit like a highlighter on my small cheekbones, above the brow bone and tip of the nose.

'It appears “wet” instead of shimmery, so still looks natural and fresh,' she adds.

To steer clear of the look from becoming too 'greasy', she suggests powdering on the t-zone and focusing your 'glazed' areas to targeted points from the face, like the cheekbones.

However, you are able to go all over with this particular look – especially if the skin is usually dry in appearance.

After all, it is a glaze. Any powders you utilize to manage excess oil really should not be a flat matte, rather they ought to contain light-reflecting particles.
