During the lifetime of the late Elizabeth II. an unspoken rule was introduced in the palace – no bright make-up. False eyelashes, enlarged lips and flashy tattoos were taboo. The wife of Prince William has always followed this trend of natural make-up, which lightly emphasizes natural beauty. Kate gets by with a soft blush palette, smoky shadows, not-too-thick eyeliner and nude lipstick.
The Princess of Wales does not use heavy foundation and bronzer, which supports the fashion for the “pure girl aesthetic”. The minimalist style often involves no makeup to create a natural look, and it’s something that the royal family, including Middleton, has embraced for years. The ladies of the monarchy are known for their high glamor at special events, but keep a low profile for occasional public appearances.
In everyday affairs, the Princess of Wales can easily do without cosmetics. Kate loves various sports activities and competitions, including sailing, rowing, tennis. In such cases, she applies her “relaxed beauty routine” so that leaky mascara doesn’t ruin her look due to water or dust.
In January, the Princess of Wales made her first public appearance since the release of Prince Harry’s controversial memoir Spare. She was wearing a cream coat and a brown plaid scarf. Kate was driving on her way to Lambrook School in Windsor, where her three children, George, 9, Charlotte, 7, and Louis, 5, attend. Kate appeared without make-up and showed off a fresh look.
Another royal who often turns down the services of a make-up artist is Princess Anne’s daughter. Zara Tindall is a professional horse rider. During the competition, the cosmetics on her face only get in the way, so she does not hesitate to show how she looks without makeup, according to the Daily Mail.
Another lover of “nature” is the daughter of Prince Andrew. Princess Eugenia often posts photos on her page on social networks, which prove that she can do without mascara and lipstick in everyday life. In addition, the King’s niece also published photos of her sister and mother taken on a walk in the fresh air. At the same time, Princess Beatrice and Sarah Ferguson posed for rare family shots without a layer of “plaster”.
