When Meghan Markle first came on the scene as Prince Harry's official significant other, wearing a crisp white shirt, blue jeans and sunnies at the 2017 Invictus Games, one thing was apparent - this was a woman whose style favoured all things simple and classic. The same could be said of her approach to beauty too, just look to her wedding day hair and make-up for the proof.

Meghan arrived at St George's Chapel at Windsor Castle to marry Prince Harry in May 2018. Her make-up was paired back, soft and pretty. It was the work of Meghan's go-to make-up artist and longtime friend Daniel Martin, who used a sheer coverage foundation on the day to showcase her freckles.

Meghan Markle's Signature Make-Up Look

Meghan Markle stuck to this minimalistic make-up style long after her wedding, it's arguablyher signature look. The main components? A subtle wash of blush, soft smoky eyes often blended up with warm bronze, earthy tones of eyeshadow and a soft pink lip colour.

Daniel previously told Grazia, 'I’ve known Meghan for over ten years and I know what she’s comfortable and not comfortable in. It’s all about being comfortable in your own skin.' That said, she pulls out all the stops when it comes to dressing up for a big event.

Meghan Markle's Signature Hairstyle

Meghan has also become known for a couple of her go-to hairstyles, namely Meghan's centre-parted soft waves and low bun. When in the UK Meghan often seeks out the hair skills of renowned celebrity hairstylist George Northwood - he was the genius behind the undone chignon Meghan wore for her wedding reception. Nowadays it's her gleaming LA waves that we see most often.
