As reported by People on September 12, 2018, Markle’s longtime makeup artist, Daniel Martin, confirmed that the Duchess favored nude lip shades over bolder tones like red or plum. As per another article by Glamour dated May 31, 2019, Markle's perfect nude was Charlotte Tilbury's Matte Revolution Lipstick in Very Victoria.

Podcast host Jamie Lima also acknowledged that Markle had no makeup on as she introduced the Duchess on the show and offered her a seat on the "rocking chair."
"Usually when we’re together, we’re in our cozy sweats and no makeup. So that’s how we are today, too — sitting right here in our cozies with no makeup," Lima said.
