Queen Letizia's makeup has always generated a lot of expectation and there is no event in which every detail is not observed with a magnifying glass. For years we fell in love with her famous green eyeliner on her waterline that illuminated her eyes a lot, but over time her makeup has evolved to more reddish tones, also ideal for highlighting green eyes. Precisely, this is what Letizia stands out for, unlike other queens or princesses, she plays with makeup and does not always wear the same style.
According to makeup artist Roberto seguiro, in a conversation he had with Telecinco news, he analyzed Queen Letizia's makeup. “I see her as beautiful, she has very good makeup, we don't have to put any buts and if we put buts, I also tell you, it is out of envy. It seems to me that she is a woman who is always elegant and very correct, speaking of makeup. What fascinates me about the queen is that she allows herself the luxury of changing her makeup depending on where she goes and adapting to each situation,” he said.
And that is true, Queen Letizia perfectly adapts her makeup according to the occasion and circumstances. Something that we may think is very normal, but that not all royals do it the way Ortiz does. If we look at the Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, her makeup is almost always very similar, with very few variations, in neutral tones and dark shadows to enhance her look.
Precisely this difference is what the expert highlights about Letizia's makeup. “You know that members of royalty in general have their quintessential makeup and wherever they go they usually wear makeup and hair in the same way. But she adapts her makeup to the event she is going to, and I think it is very important, because makeup in the end is just another accessory, like a bag, a shoe or a dress,” says Roberto.
Makeup can make you feel better
However, for seguiro, the true value of makeup goes far beyond the technique or the aesthetic result: it lies in how it makes a woman feel about herself. An idea that is very present in her work philosophy and that is also reflected in her book She Naked, where she states that “makeup fulfills many functions.” A teaching that he discovered first-hand when working with the model Inés Sastre. The makeup artist remembers that, during their first meeting, she conveyed a request that he would never forget: “Don't try to show off with your makeup. Just make me look pretty.” A reflection that focuses on what is truly important: that makeup accompanies, favors and enhances the person, without taking away their prominence.
Furthermore, we cannot ignore the role that makeup plays in enhancing our features and taking advantage of our natural beauty. Used well, it becomes a great ally to highlight what suits us most and soften the small details with which we do not feel so comfortable. And it is undeniable that good makeup can transform a lot, provide luminosity and freshness to dull skin, highlight the look or enhance lips blurred by the passage of time.
And possibly that is where the great potential of makeup lies, in its ability to go far beyond the purely aesthetic and become a form of personal expression. A tool with which to reflect our personality, define our style and feel identified with the image we project. According to the makeup artist, “there are recommendations and tipsbut in the end the one who has to take the last word is the person who wears it. “It depends on each person's tastes and preferences,” he adds.
