Meghan Markle [1] might be new to royal life, but she's certainly not a beginner when it comes to her regal take on beauty. She's easily (and quickly) mastered the royal blow out [2] and is a pro at elegant makeup, sporting a bold red lip [3] but she has cleverly played around with her look in other ways. The duchess has always been focussed on a glowing and dewy complexion [4], opting not to cover her freckles [5], but adding an understated shimmer to her lips and eyes for a little more glam.
As for hair, the duchess has been a little more adventurous and adapted her look since becoming a royal. We can't forget her famous messy bun [6] during the first months of her engagement to Prince Harry, which has since transitioned into relaxed but elegant styles for formal occasions. She's played with straight hair, natural waves, a polished ponytail, flowers in her hair on the royal tour, and Hollywood-style waves.
We've rounded up some of our favourites, out of a very, very wide selection. Ahead are some of Meghan Markle's best beauty looks of the year, so far.
