We've learned so much about Meghan Markle's favourite beauty products [1] that we could probably teach a college course on her picks. From her go-to mascara [2] to a "cure-all" beauty oil [3], the Duchess knows what she likes. But up until now, there has been one item that you don't often see her wear during royal engagements: highlighter. The former actress just changed that while hosting a ceremony honouring youth leadership — and it keeps her decidedly '60s look supermodern.
Though the double-breasted blush dress [4] and peekaboo black pumps she wore for the occasion gave off major Jackie O. vibes, the Duchess kept things trendy by swiping on an iridescent highlighter. In the right light, it almost looks purple, à la Fenty's Unicorn Match Stix [5], but that is most likely due to glare from camera flashes. Even still, the look is pretty edgy, especially since we often see royals go a more subdued, matte route when it comes to cheekbone colour.
During her Suits days, Markle told Delish [6] that she credits a switch to a gluten-free diet and munching on almonds as the secret to making her skin "glow." While her shining complexion in the images ahead is definitely the work of a luminiser, we suspect her lifestyle helps a bit, too. (As does being in love with a prince, probably).
