[custom_adv] Although you might not see her wearing a bold lipstick colour or a sculptural eyeliner look, Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, knows her way around the beauty block. [custom_adv] Since stepping onto the royal scene with her now-iconic glossy blow-out and subtle smoky eye in 2010, Kate has made an art out of her signature makeup look, always looking put-together at events. [custom_adv] Pairing glowing skin (courtesy of a strict skincare routine, regular facials and a healthy diet) with a low-key beauty look and bouncy hair, the mother-of-three ensures she always looks flawless, whether she's on a tennis court or in Buckingham Palace. [custom_adv] From her go-to brands (Bobbi Brown and Lancôme feature heavily) to her preferred skincare products, these are the 20 items Kate's been known to favour. According to reports, Kate loves Urban Decay's 'Naked Smoky' palette so much she recommended it to Michelle Obama. High praise. Sources say 'Toasted' and 'Hustle' are her go-to shades. [custom_adv] It's safe to say that Kate Middleton is incredibly influential when it comes to fashion and beauty. If she wears a Breton top, we pull on some stripes. If she styles up trainers, we reach out for ours. And as someone in the public eye, her beauty choices are equally studied and emulated, be it her wedding day choice or her day-to-day makeup. [custom_adv] Kate's fresh and glowing complexion comes courtesy of beauty brand Bobbi Brown, who revealed that Kate is a big fan. They released a statement after the Royal Wedding saying one of their make-up artists "provided make-up artistry assistance to members of the bridal party". [custom_adv] The Duchess applies Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Even Finish Foundation to give her skin a flawless cover. It has a lovely matte texture without looking cakey. This natural-looking foundation is super-hydrating and provides medium-to-full coverage, complete with SPF15.
