Meghan has finally disclosed her beauty secrets, and we’re all ears.

For those who haven’t seen it, Meghan’s latest shopping section on her website features a selection of her personal favorites. In this article, I’ll unveil the products she highlights, along with descriptions for each. Additionally, I’ll share if any members of the HELLO! team share her top picks.

I’ll admit, I expected some more mainstream brands, but it’s heartening to see her shine a light on smaller, niche businesses. I enjoy discovering new brands myself, and it appears Meghan often opts for clean beauty products, which are suitable for sensitive skin.

Meghan’s Skincare Favorites

The Budget-Friendly Moisturizer

At this point, I’m starting to think, who doesn’t appreciate the Weleda Skin Food, $15.20 / £8? This moisturizer has received accolades from many celebrities, including Victoria Beckham and Hailey Bieber, and now Meghan. Honestly, she has excellent taste—this truly is an outstanding skincare product at an affordable price.

The Universal Exfoliator

Meghan maintains a luminous and refined complexion thanks to her beloved ARCONA Cranberry Gommage, $47.60 / £79, which cleanses and removes impurities from the skin. Suitable for all skin types!

The Collagen Infusing Jelly Cream

This is a surprising favorite—Meghan is a big fan of the Medicube Collagen Jelly Cream, $14.90 / £25.99. Promising a “glass skin” appearance, this transparent jelly cream works wonderfully for addressing dark spots.

One satisfied shopper describes it perfectly: “This collagen jelly is the most effective, hydrating, and luxurious facial product I have ever used. Initially, I was skeptical about all the hype, but now I can confidently say it lives up to the expectations! The first time I used it, I was astounded by the lack of fragrance and how wonderfully it made my skin glow. I can’t wait for a good sale to stock up!”

The Touch-Up Serum Stick

It’s no surprise to find Tatcha on her list of beauty staples. Not only is her close friend and makeup artist Daniel Martin affiliated with the brand, but the products are genuinely excellent. One of her must-haves is the Tatcha Serum Stick, $49 / £49, which acts as a concentrated treatment and touch-up balm, boasting 80% squalane, hyaluronic acid, and Japanese lemon balm to combat dryness and signs of aging.

The Viral Dewy Skin Cream

The second Tatcha product Meghan loves is the Tatcha Dewy Skin Cream, $89 / £67. This moisturizer is renowned for its plumping and hydrating effects, creating a dewy and healthy glow while shielding the skin from pollution and stress.

The Gentle Facial Cleanser

Meghan’s cleanser of choice is the La Roche-Posay Toleriane Hydrating Gentle Cleanser, $17.99 / £18.80. It’s a daily facial wash formulated for normal to dry and sensitive skin types.

This gentle cream incorporates La Roche-Posay prebiotic thermal spring water, niacinamide, and ceramide-3 to restore comfort and retain essential moisture, resulting in a hydrated and comfortable skin feel.

The Luxe Face Mask Set

No self-care routine is complete without a proper face mask, and Meghan frequently opts for the Tata Harper Multi-Masking Set, $245 / £195, described as your “mask arsenal” to cater to all your skin needs.

The Coveted Lip Butter

Another favorite shared by Meghan is the Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm, $24 / £23. This beloved balm hydrates and soothes dry lips almost instantly, whether applied on-the-go or as a nourishing mask overnight, guaranteeing soft, kiss-ready lips.

The Economical Lip Ointment

Clearly, lip care is a must-have for Meghan, as she likely carries one wherever she goes.

She also features the affordable Lucas Papaw Ointment, $8.78 / £12.98 on her list. Fans adore it and it’s often compared to a more luxurious version of Vaseline.

The Eye Products Meghan Reaches For

The Rose Quartz Eyeshadow Palette

Meghan’s fondness for the clean beauty brand led by Jane Iredale is well-documented.

Understanding the adverse effects of conventional makeup on skin health, Jane Iredale focused on creating healthier alternatives. Her PurePressed Eyeshadow Palette, $36 / £35 showcases a thoughtfully selected trio of harmonious shades that deliver depth and dimension for an array of looks, gentle and safe for even the most sensitive eyes.

The Soft Eye Kohl

MAC Cosmetics remains a hero brand, and Meghan is no exception. She enjoys the Eye Kohl Crayon, $24 / £20. The specific shade she prefers is ‘Teddy,’ a rich bronze brown hue.

Meghan’s Face Products – Featuring Her Favorite Foundation

The Clean Foundation

Were you expecting her to go with the Giorgio Armani Foundation? I certainly did. However, Meghan now swears by the No Makeup Makeup Foundation, $55.

This weightless 4-in-1 solution conceals, corrects, camouflages, and diffuses skin imperfections in one swoop, serving as a color corrector, redness neutralizer, concealer, and foundation all at once.

One review on Amazon states: “I’ve never found a product that matches my skin tone so flawlessly! I can actually see it adapting to my undertones during application. I use it daily as it feels so lightweight and doesn’t settle in my dry patches, making it a staple in my makeup routine. I’m definitely purchasing one for my mom too!”

Unfortunately, it’s currently only available in the US, but for those in the UK, it’s believed to be quite similar to Lisa Eldridge’s Seamless Skin Foundation, £44.

The Dreamy Luminizer

The first beauty product Meghan mentions on her site is the acclaimed multi-use cream RMS Beauty Luminizer, $40 / £39.

This product delivers a light-reflective and naturally dewy glow, crafted with nourishing, organic ingredients that not only highlight but also care for your skin.

The Multi-Use Illuminator

It’s evident that illuminator products are among Meghan’s favorites—her radiant appearances confirm that. She openly declares her admiration for the Saie Glowy Super Gel, $28 / £22, which serves multiple purposes. A simple application of 1-2 pumps can be used all over or underneath your foundation for that extra glow, making it a must-have in your makeup collection.

How Meghan’s Beauty Preferences Have Evolved

In the past, Meghan has emphasized that eyelash curlers are “the one product” she couldn’t live without. Although she hasn’t disclosed her go-to pair on her new website, she has discussed her preferred mascara and eyeshadow palette.

While starring in the TV series Suits, Meghan mentioned her all-time favorite beauty product: the YSL Touche Eclat Concealer, $40 / £24.40. It’s compact, blends flawlessly, and can save you on days when you’re running on little sleep. While many of her past favorites remain consistent—aside from hair products—this list feels refreshing and diverse. Ready to learn more?

Editor’s Opinion on Meghan’s Selected Beauty Products

I thoroughly enjoyed exploring Meghan’s favorite beauty products—it’s like getting a glimpse into her beauty routine. I wished she provided a bit more insight into why she loves each item, but perhaps she will elaborate more in the future. Many of these products are reasonably priced, with several being quite affordable. I’m personally a fan of both Weleda and Tatcha and highly recommend their offerings. I’m eager to try her chosen foundation—it’s a brand I was unaware of, but now I’m excited to test it out.
