The Meghan Effect is about to take on a whole new category, as Ms Markle’s favourite lipstick has been revealed. And what lucky brand can we expect to experience the instant sell-out that follows? None other than the much-loved-by-celebrities beauty powerhouse Charlotte Tilbury. The intel leak came this week via People, who spoke to a source close to British make-up artist and founder of the eponymous brand, Tilbury.
The lipstick in question? A pretty matte taupe colour called Very Victoria, which was apparently named after none other than Victoria Beckham, who just so happens to be a friend of Meghan’s. Perhaps VB has gifted all her girlfriends with the understated, grown-up beauty buy!
From her already-multiple public engagements with Prince Harry, it seems Markle is never snapped without her grow-up and discreet lipstick perfectly in check. So, how do you get your hands on the prettiest of lip colours? The Very Victoria is available from Charlotte Tilbury’s website now for £24, but if the Meghan effect is anything to go by, you might want to act fast. You’ve been warned!
