Yves Saint Laurent Touche Éclat Radiant Touch
($38): Back during her early mornings on the set, the actress would swear by YSL's Touche Éclat to look wide awake. "If you’ve worked a 17-hour day and have nothing else on, you will still look relatively alive. Relatively," she told Beauty Banter.
NARS Blush Orgasm ($30): This Markle fave is also a beauty world classic. According to the former actress, it gives the skin "a perfect rosy flush tone that brightens the face."
Dior Diorshow Iconic High Definition Lash Curler Mascara ($30): Back in 2014, she told Allure her fave mascara is the Diorshow Iconic. The tapered brush is great for getting the teeny lashes at the corners of your eyes.
Tatcha Polished Classic Rice Enzyme Powder ($65): Markle has said that she keeps her visage exfoliated with the help of Tatcha's Rice Enzyme Powder. "It just sort of foams on your face and gives you a really subtle exfoliation," she said.
The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil ($10): One beauty buy the California native always keeps handy is trusty tea tree oil. "It's not the most glamorous thing, but if you get a cut, a mosquito bite, a small breakout, no matter what it is, it's my little cure-all. It's inexpensive, it's small enough to carry on, and I bring it with me all the time," she revealed.
Kate Somerville Quench Hydrating Serum ($75): Every beauty junkie knows that good makeup starts with hydrated skin, and Markle is no different. She swears by Kate Somerville's Quench Hydrating Serum. "I’ve been going to Kate’s clinic in LA for facials for years, and [since I’ve been living] in Toronto for work, I still use the products to maintain that glow that her facials give," the star told Beauty Banter.
Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution Lipstick Very Victoria ($34): Rumor has it, Markle's favorite lippie is Charlotte Tilbury's buttery matte finish Very Victoria. It's the perfect shade of rosy nude.
Laura Mercier Illuminating Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20 ($45): To achieve that gorgeous inner glow, the 36-year-old counts on this illuminating tinted moisturizer. Markle has been outspoken about letting her freckles shine through, and the sheer radiant finish of this product definitely helps her achieve that.
MAC Eye Kohl in Teddy ($18): When Prince Harry's fiancée really wants her peepers to shine, she turns to a specific liner. "If I'm going to amp it up for night, then I use M.A.C. Teddy eyeliner, which is a really beautiful brown that has some gold in it," she told Allure.
Giorgio Armani
Luminous Silk Foundation ($64): Our bet is Markle will probably be sporting her go-to Armani foundation on her big day. Her makeup artist told Refinery29 that she used to always rely on Luminous Silk since it was "really easy to sheer out ... to make sure [her] freckles are peeking through."
Make Up For Ever
Ultra HD Microfinishing Pressed Powder
($37): To finish her glam and keep it from disappearing throughout the day, Markle turned to yet another cult-classic, Make Up For Ever's Ultra HD Microfinishing Pressed Powder. "It lets your skin look shiny and fresh, but not greasy-shiny," she said.
ORIBE Dry Texturizing Spray ($46): Markle's character always had the best hair thanks to this miracle product. "There is nothing like a hair flip! When my hair is feeling a little weighted, Suanne, my hair artist on set, has me bend forward and she sprays a little Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray or nothing at all, and then has me 'flip back hard' to give my hair a little extra bounce," she told Birchbox.
RevitaLash Advanced Eyelash Conditioner ($98): The secret behind Markle's mile-long lashes? This desert island lash conditioner. "I also use Revitalash on my eyelashes, and I swear they are as long as they could ever be," she revealed in a 2014 interview. Well, if you say so, Meghan!
Fresh Sugar Advanced Therapy Lip Treatment SPF 15 ($26): Wondering what the royal-to-be will be wearing on her lips when she puckers up at her nuptials? Our money is on Fresh's Sugar Advanced Therapy Lip Treatment. She once raved about this soothing balm, "I have searched high and low and tried every kind of lip balm but this is the very best. Soft, kissable, buttery lips. I swear by it."
Nivea Skin Firming Hydration Body Lotion ($17): It's clear Markle is fastidious about hydration, and her fave moisturizer is probably available at your local drugstore! "I use this religiously. It’s honestly my favorite lotion on the market, it’s so affordable, and makes my skin look and feel amazing," said Markle. "I would buy a case of this at a time if I could find it."
