If you were a makeup queen, or king, would your crown be made of opulent lip glosses? Would your thrown be constructed of Urban Decay Naked Pallets covered in Swarovski crystals? If you can pass this quiz, you're definitely makeup royalty.
Are you a trendy makeup queen like Megan Markle, or are you more refined and classic like Lady Diana, Markle's late future mother in law. Either way, both women married into the United Kingdom's famous monarchy, currently headed by Queen Elizabeth II. Markle and Lady Diana's son, Prince Harry, are set to be married on May 19th of this year.
People have obsessed over Meghan Markle, like they did with Kate Middleton, Prince William's wife. Allure Magazine, an American beauty publication, asked Prince Harry's future wife about her favorite tips and tricks of the trade. In Ms. Markle's Sephora cart you'll find Tatcha Rice Enzyme Powder, Diorshow Iconic Mascara, and Makeup Forever HD Powder. The future member of The Royal Family is just like us!
We bet Meghan Markle could match these products to their brands...and she's actually (almost) royalty. Prove that you're worthy of having the title of "Makeup Queen." Better brush up on your royal waving skills.
