Only when they give birth, at night, by the light of the silvery moon. Of course, if Mars is also in the sky at the time, it’s going to be a boy. If it’s Venus, then a girl. If neither, if neither, … I got nothin’.
So back on subject, obviously the answer is that they brush their teeth with Sparkle toothpaste containing Mica, and then they spit on each other, or drool on themselves. Maybe they spit in their hands and then shake to form agreements. Maybe they just sneeze.
For what it’s worth, I got it and thought it was funny.
Or lick themselves, like cats!
Or dogs. Shiny genitals!
I was on here searching for an answer to the same question. I am part Cherokee Indian and when I tan I get the “sparkle” effect on my skin as well I know exactly what you are talking about. It has been very hard for me to find an answer to this question myself. It seems that everyone just wants to say its lotion or some other cosemetic explanation , but you and I and others that actually have this sparkle on our skin know that is not the cause. I believe it has to be minerals in our bodies or something that we asorb from the sun. Either way I just know that those of us that have it, have very beautiful skin and those that dont are the ones posting the stupid answers.
I’m just noticing this thread, but can say that I have noticed ‘sparkles’ on dark, dark ‘black’ skin sometimes (‘rarely’ as I only noticed 'em by happenstance and with a strong light-source upon skin, too) Very, very tiny and barely noticeable unless looking closely, but certainly present upon (within?) the skin. In actuality, the more ‘black’ the skin, the more noticeable they were, and maybe a density of one ‘sparkle’ per 6"/sq of skin area at most (probably much less per sq/in?). I use the word ‘sparkle’ to mean a ~shiny speck that seems to reflect incidental light only when viewed at certain angles, not hugely apparent, and much smaller than a fraction of a millimeter (in same way that a distant star’s twinkle is seen but is not easily able to be measured in width, I guess. Certainly much smaller than the mica ‘sparkles’ mentioned previously in which the pieces doing the reflecting can be seen when searched out)
Anyways, I just want to say that I have seen such ‘sparkles’ and definitely not from a foreign substance upon skin - alcohol ‘wipes’ did not remove the ‘sparkles’ when applied multiple times prior to me starting an IV upon the arm displaying said sparkles 
Even the patient was curious why his skin sparkled a bit under the lamp - his mom’s skin was apparently even more sparkly if the person was to be believed (and his skin was the ‘blackest’ I’d ever seen, fwiw). At first I thought it was sweat pores glistening, but nope…appeared to be just under skin’s surface and not related to any visible structures of normal skin.
I’ve noticed this same thing myself and every time I look it up there’s always some twilight reference. I know this is an old post but I’d like to know WHY I have all these tiny sparkles on my skin.
I noticed it a couple weeks ago when I woke up on the most annoying beam of sunlight. I rolled over, ready to cover my eyes with my forearm and I caught a glimpse of glitter, which I DO NOT wear. In my just-waking-up haze I was ready to curse my boyfriend out for having some cheap woman in our house… Then logic crept in and I figured it to be the lotion I used. I swiped my finger across the surface of my skin (mahogany brown with red undertones) yet they did not move. I shrugged it off, got up & showered.
As I was getting out the shower I noticed the sparkles again. Upon closer examination, I realized it was my skin! Its beautiful! There seems to be one tiny sparkle per pore. Im sure its more apparent magnified. But I am curious as to why there isnt any documentation of this?
I’ve seen the sparkles on my own skin. I’m more or less olive-skinned, and I’ve noticed it on my forearms when in bright sunlight.
Sure it isn’t sweat? Or in the bath case, water?
Hi Nice Person…You are very kind to admit your findings on people of color or Melanin. Everyone has Melanin or you wouldnt be living, just some have more than others. I am half Black half Native American. And I always seem to have sparkles on me. In fact my daughter is looking at the ones on me right now trying to figure it out. I use to dye my hair alot but stopped, got tried of the cost and mess. I’m 54 now and my hair is white like snow with silver streaks not grey but shiny
silver, My daughter said mom how do you grow tinsel out of your scalp—good
question. I came across this site because I wantd to know if anyone else had the sparkles, and what it ment. I live in West Virginia so I don’t know if it’s a certain area thang. Something tells me it isn’t it’s just the person. I’m going to keep studying this I first noticed the sparkles when I was 16 they come more often now. God Bless…
PS
Mr husband said he has seen the tinsel in my hair glow at night, Something else to study
Well, let’s not overdo it.
I realize this is an old thread. Still, this might be helpful for others interested in this sparkling skin phenomenon:

I see that the OP hasn’t posted in a while–that’s too bad; I wanted to hear more about Chernobyl being overrun with black mushrooms that suck melanin from the ground.
My ancestry is deep and can trace it from Blackfoot, Creek, Cherokee, to the Ullie people whom are Olmec’s “The Mayans”. My skin is Reddish brown when I tan it’s like Dark red Burgundy and my skin shimmers like a diamond specially when I get too much sun.
I wanna shimmer. Why I can’t shimmer:(
Simply slather on some bodybuilder’s posing oil.
But you can shimmy, right?
