The warmer weather calls for a fresh beauty look, and a hydrating, glowy base is the perfect place to start. If you’ve always thought Meghan Markle’s skin looks flawless (and, same), you can take a leaf out of her book and use a primer that she’s reported to love.
According to MeghansMirror.com the Duchess of Sussex includes the Wonderglow Face Primer from Charlotte Tilbury, which costs £40 for a full size 40ml bottle, or £16 for a 15ml one. The primer creates a dewy, glowing result and you can use it on its own, or use it as a base before applying your go-to foundation over the top.

The Wonderglow Face Primer helps create a “candlelit” effect, with a soft focus formula that diffuses light and creates a more even look to your skin. This blurring effect also helps minimise the appearance of fine lines and blemishes, giving your skin a smoother canvas.
It contains ultra-hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid, and camellia oil which moisturise for up to 24 hours, whilst rosehip oil helps revitalise your complexion, leaving it looking brighter. The Wonderglow Face Primer also has bionymph peptides which smooth and plump skin, and wild pansy extract which also acts to reduce the appearance of wrinkles whilst plumping up your skin.
You can apply the Wonderglow Face Primer on its own to revive tired, dull skin for a flawless no-makeup makeup look, or apply it as a base before using foundation over the top for a “lit from within” glow that doesn’t look oily or shiny.

Although there are no reviews on the Charlotte Tilbury website, on Cult Beauty – where the Wonderglow Face Primer is also stocked – it has 113 five star ratings, with one shopper saying: “I like this product. It gives a nice subtle sheen to the skin & looks nice for a no makeup day as it balances out skin tone.”
Another agreed: “Wanted something that wasn’t too bronzing and gave a natural colour as I have quite fair skin. Sheer glow easy to apply.”
One reviewer countered: “Definitely creates a lovely glow but I feel like you have to use quite a lot and so it doesn’t last very long!”
Others however loved it, saying: “I’m truly obsessed and will repurchase for the rest of my life. Beautiful with or without makeup.”
If you prefer a lighter, serum-like primer, the Iconic London Underglow Blurring Primer is £25, and has a more lightweight, liquid formula that boosts your glow whilst also smoothing and blurring pores and fine lines, hydrating skin and helping makeup stay put all day. For something more budget-friendly, the L’Oréal Paris Paradise Lumi Glotion acts as a primer, foundation, highlighter and contour in one, and is currently on sale down to £9.59 from £11.99.
