If there’s one thing every Australian woman knows they cannot miss in their beauty routine, it’s applying SPF.
However Princess Eugenie’s makeup artist, Hannah Martin, has revealed she didn’t apply SPF to Eugenie on her wedding day as it can be unflattering in photos.
Speaking on her podcast Life and Lipstick with fellow makeup artist Lisa Potter-Dixon, Hannah explained how wearing foundation with SPF is one of the biggest bridal beauty faux pas. “A couple of the things I swear by are absolutely no SPF on your wedding day. Loads of brands will say that their SPF is photo-friendly, but I just prefer to avoid it,” Hannah said.
We can’t help but disagree with the makeup artist on this one, with the Cancer Council suggesting SPF30 or higher is applied 20 minutes before you go outdoors, and reapplied every two hours.
When English rose Princess Eugenie married Jack Brooksbank in October 2018 it may have been a cloudy day in Windsor, but avoiding SPF in Australia is a huge no-no and not something we can recommend.
