The Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton, has once again captivated royal watchers with her impeccable style – this time with her choice of lipstick at Wimbledon. Tennis fans weren't the only ones under her spell as she sported a stunning rosy nude shade from luxury French brand Clarins.
The Royal Lipstick Reveal
As Kate attended the prestigious tennis tournament in her role as patron of the All England Lawn Tennis Club, beauty enthusiasts quickly identified her lip colour as Clarins' Natural Lip Perfector in shade 01. This cult favourite product has been a staple in makeup bags since its launch, praised for its hydrating formula and subtle tint.
Why This Shade Works
The perfect balance between sophistication and approachability, this barely-there pink:
- Complements all skin tones
- Provides a natural 'your lips but better' look
- Contains nourishing plant extracts
- Offers a glossy finish without stickiness
Beauty experts suggest this is precisely why it's become one of Kate's signature looks for public engagements.
The Clarins Effect
Following Kate's appearance, online searches for the £19 product reportedly surged by 320%. The brand's Natural Lip Perfector range has long been popular, but the royal endorsement has sent sales into overdrive.
Clarins, founded in 1954, has become synonymous with French beauty expertise. Their products combine plant-based ingredients with scientific innovation – a philosophy that clearly appeals to the health-conscious Duchess.
How to Get the Look
For those wanting to emulate Kate's Wimbledon style:
- Start with exfoliated, moisturised lips
- Apply the Natural Lip Perfector directly from the tube
- Blot with a tissue for a more matte finish
- Reapply throughout the day as needed
The product's sheer formula makes it virtually foolproof – perfect for achieving royal-worthy lips with minimal effort.
