Meghan Markle definitely brought freckles to our attention last year. The duchess's choice for ultranatural makeup, even on her wedding day, isn't something we're used to seeing in the royal family, specifically on the Duchess of Cambridge, who prefers a heavier application.
When discussing Markle's wedding makeup, her makeup artist Daniel Martin explained that it wasn't about trendy makeup but about making her look like herself, which meant her freckles were on show. Martin explained that the key to Markle's foundation being medium coverage and long-lasting but still ensuring her freckles shone through was by "spot treating" the foundation application. This meant he only used product in specific areas to "balance out any redness or uneven skin tone," which enabled her freckles to come through.
