Meghan Markle has to be one of the most photogenic women on the planet, fitting given that she’s now also one of the most photographed women on the planet.
Thankfully, we now know exactly how the royal bride-to-be gets her glowing skin camera ready with her former make-up artist revealing Markle is “very in-the-know” when it comes to beauty products.
“She had her blog for a while, so she just gets beauty,” Lydia F. Sellers, who worked with Markle until she relocated to the UK, told Refinery 29.
“But her approach is very effortless. She just wants to look like a better version of herself. That’s something she believes firmly in.”
“Every time I’d do her makeup, she’d say, ‘Can we just make sure my freckles are peeking through? I don’t want a ton of foundation,'” Sellers continues.
“It was more about the amount of product that went on her skin and keeping it really fresh and dewy, rather than caking it on. So I’d use the Armani Luminous Silk Foundation with a Beautyblender because it’s really easy to sheer out.”
Another of Markle’s make-up artists, Min Min Ma, backs up Sellers’ claims, previously telling E! that when she would work with the former Suits star, she would do “very light skin make-up” to ensure Markle’s freckles remain visible.
Markle’s pet peeve is when her freckles are concealed or Photoshopped out.
While Armani Luminous Silk Foundation doesn’t come cheap – $99 a pop – it’s one of Sephora’s top-rated foundations and a favourite at the marie claire office.
Oh, Meghan, we’re so alike.
