Jemma Kidd on Kate Middleton's Royal Wedding Beauty

Published Apr 26, 2011

Makeup superstar and British beauty Jemma Kidd, also known as The Countess of Mornington, chats about Kate Middleton's wedding look. Read this royal beauty's top picks and predictions for the big day!

Jemma's royal wedding makeup advice: "With her glowing skin, rosy cheeks, and softly defined eyes, Kate has already mastered the natural make-up look. The key consideration for the wedding day is durability and photo-stability—she needs to choose products that are long-lasting and formulated for natural light and artificial flash photography. She'll be under a lot of media scrutiny on the big day—it's essential that her makeup performs in the spotlight."

Jemma's Royal Wedding Winners:
