Here's why Meghan Markle never rocks red lipstick

Her makeup artist reveals all

By Rebecca Fearn.

Red lipstick can make a woman feel empowered, sexy and bold. Yet, woman of the moment Meghan Markle is apparently just not a fan of rocking a red lip.

Meghan's wedding day makeup artist Daniel Martin told People that Meghan will not be wearing red any time soon:

“The one time she did a red lip, she just didn’t feel comfortable in it," Daniel told the magazine.

"She likes to talk and she’s not a fussy person, so she doesn’t want to have to worry about anything. They [Harry and Meghan] have so many engagements, you have to stick with what you know and feel comfortable and confident and just own it.”

We can totally relate.

Daniel had previously told Vogue that the pair would never have considered a red lip for her bridal look. When asked if it was ever going to be on the cards for the big day, Daniel replied:

“Not at all because I just know her and there was no way. The last thing I wanted Harry to look at was her make-up, I wanted him to see her. They’re so affectionate and the last thing I’d want to do is prevent that happening because she has a red lip on. It’s almost like a stop sign!”

So what is the Duchess of Sussex's favourite look makeup-wise?

"She likes a stronger eye, her brow is a lot more defined now," he told People. "But it’s still her. If anything, she’s going to experiment with different tones, and now that she’s more tan she’ll use warmer colours. But she doesn’t stray too far from her technique, she’s very formulaic with her routine."
