Bobbi Brown Reveals the Truth About the Myth Surrounding Kate Middleton's Makeup for Her Royal Wedding to Prince William

Bobbi Brown confirmed artist Hannah Martin created Princess Kate’s iconic bridal makeup using Bobbi Brown products, dispelling rumors that Kate did it herself.

  • On April 29, 2011, Bobbi Brown told listeners on the Breaking Beauty podcast and in her book Still Bobbi that Princess Kate did not do her own wedding makeup at Westminster Abbey.
  • Long held rumours suggested Princess Kate did her own bridal makeup, but Brown used her memoir Still Bobbi and the Breaking Beauty podcast to correct that misconception.
  • Using Brown's products, UK-based makeup artist Ms Martin created the bridal look with a neutral lip, pinkish blush and smoky eyes, and she had hinted Kate would wear Brown's cosmetics.
  • Brown noted she received a thank-you note from Kate's office that she now keeps in her office, and emphasized the Bobbi Brown company did not claim credit for the bridal look.
  • Brown said the April 2011 wedding drew an estimated global audience of more than 160 million, showing her beauty concept's impact while Martin has built a substantial online profile.
