Forget heavy foundation, eyeshadow and bronzer, the 'clean girl aesthetic' craze is still having its moment after trending on TikTok.
The minimal style often involves 'no makeup' makeup for an au naturel vibe - something the royals - including Kate Middleton - have seemingly been adopting for years.
Despite the ladies of the royal family being known for a degree of glamour when out and about at official engagements, they - just like the rest of us - take a low-key approach from time to time.
That said, the one royal who you would NEVER find without her lippy and blush on was the late Queen Elizabeth...

Her Majesty would always look perfectly polished. It is said that she did her makeup herself, except when she recorded her Christmas Day address to the nation.
'You might be surprised to know that this is the only occasion throughout the year when Her Majesty does not do her own makeup,' her former right-hand woman and dresser Angela Kelly wrote in her book, The Other Side of the Coin: The Queen, the Dresser and the Wardrobe.
In contrast, the sporty Princess of Wales is regularly seen with a more relaxed beauty regime, particularly when enjoying different activities such as rowing.
While Zara Tindall also avoids a full face of makeup when horse riding - and Princess Eugenie is a fan of sharing a makeup-free selfie to Instagram.
Here, we take a look at what the royals look like without their makeup...
