I always get asked about Meghan’s makeup and nail polish, and for good reason—her beauty look is as iconic as her wardrobe. Below is a breakdown of what products were used to create Meghan’s glowing, effortless look for With Love, Meghan Season 2.
For Season 2 of With Love, Meghan, longtime friend and makeup artist Daniel Martin returned—not just as a guest, but as the creative force behind Meghan’s beauty looks (a first for the series). Daniel revealed to Vogue the products he used to achieve Meghan’s fresh faced look.
Adopting a lovely “less-is-more” philosophy, Martin tailored Meghan’s makeup to feel like what “your girlfriends would do if they’re hanging out”. With her famously dry skin in mind, he began with deeply hydrating skincare: Tatcha’s Longevity Serum ($80) and Dewy Milk Moisturizer ($64)—products chosen to nourish and boost natural radiance.
Moving into makeup, Daniel kept it light and fresh:
Orcé Come Closer Serum Foundation ($75) and Sarah Creal Face Flex Concealer ($58) for flawless, second-skin coverage.
A Make Up For Ever eye palette ($32) with tonal browns and gentle shimmer for softly defined eyes.
Chanel Les Beiges Healthy Glow Bronzing Cream ($60) and Live Tinted Blush Crush Liquid Blush ($22) for lifted, natural warmth on the cheeks
Sleek, polished brows and a neutral lip— Try Meghan’s favorite Saint Jane Beauty Luxury Lip Shine in shade Tonic ($28)
Daniel didn’t reveal what product he used on Meghan’s eyebrows. I actually love L’Oréal’s Faux Brow Ultra Fine Double-Brush Tip Brow Filling Pen, $13.
Thoughtful, minimal powdering—strategically placed on the T-zone, nose bridge, and forehead—for a balanced, lived-in glow.
Tower 28 Beauty GetSet Blur + Set Talc-Free Pressed Setting Powder ($28)
As Martin put it—
I wanted her skin to look like skin…it’s about having that healthy radiance, but not looking too shiny or too matte.”
This look perfectly mirrors the tone of the show: polished yet effortless, radiant yet real.
As for Meghan’s nails—she revealed back in the Spring that her favorite UV gel polish is CND Shellac. She uses a coat of Satin Slippers and a coat of Romantique to achiever her perfectly polished look.
CND Shellac in Satin Slippers and CND Shellac in Romantique – $17 ea.
Thanks for this post! Although I adore Duchess Meghan, I wasn’t a huge fan of her makeup for the 2nd season of With Love, Meghan. It really seemed underwhelming & I think the makeup should play up her features more. The same thing happened w/ her wedding makeup. Unfortunately, the common denominator in both situations is Daniel Martin.
Thanks for this post! I adore Duchess Meghan, but I actually thought her makeup was underwhelming this season. Now I know why. I highly dislike the job Daniel Martin did with Meghan’s makeup for the 2nd season & even on her wedding day, for that matter. I just think the makeup should play up her features more – especially if it’s being done by an actual makeup artist. Otherwise, what’s the point of getting it professionally done?
