With season two of Bridgerton out on Netflix, we can all expect plenty of impeccable fashion and beauty looks to unpack from the gossip-filled series. Just before the season aired, fans were given an early chance to interact with the makeup looks from the show through Pat McGrath’s Bridgerton collaboration. Although the collection was only just released, the Bridgerton stars had exclusive access to the products and can be seen sporting ultra-pigmented McGrath products throughout the show. This season’s breakout star, Simone Ashley, who plays Kate in the series, reportedly wore the collection throughout the season. She looked stunning all season, so you can count us in for whatever products she used.
The royal collection consists of an eyeshadow palette, a selection of blushes, kohl eyeliner, body shimmer, and satin lipsticks. McGrath’s packaging with this collection was perfectly executed, featuring pinks from the show, satin-looking prints, bows, and other hyper-feminine design touches that would most definitely be queen approved. When it comes to face products, the team seems to use lighter products that give the actors a refreshed and young look focusing more attention on the eyes and finding the perfect blush to create their perfectly rosy looks.

Given the entire show revolves around the young ladies navigating the marriage market in London, the main focus of the looks is the element of extravagance and glamour. The frivolous dresses worn throughout the show paired with eccentric headpieces definitely call for colorful but somewhat understand makeup looks. Each look highlights femininity at the time in a unique way through unique color stories.
Since season one, the iconic Pat McGrath has been involved in creating memorable looks on the shows. Bridgerton’s makeup artist, Erika Ökvist tells Glamour, “Pat has been a very big part of this production. We used a lot of Pat McGrath on Simone because the pigments are really good and photograph incredibly well. Almost all of her colors, even the bright ones, are based on skin tone undertones. Even though you think you’re going way too strong with peach or pink, you’ve got those colors naturally in your skin, so it doesn’t actually read as harsh.”
