That bouncy chestnut-brown hair, those lovely smoky eyes, the radiant skin . . . it's no wonder we're all smitten with Kate Middleton. The Duchess of Cambridge has made household names out of the fashion labels she favors, and we think it's high time her go-to beauty brands get the same treatment. As such, we've tracked down the beauty buys you'll find in the royal's makeup bag, from cult favorites we all know and love to lesser-known staples we're dying to try. Scooping her beauty swag isn't quite the same as, say, marrying a prince and having access to the royal jewels, but we can live with that. Keep reading to discover the Kate-inspired products — and get ready to practice your regal wave along with your gel liner technique.
