Bridgerton’s Makeup Artist and Hairstylist Share Beauty Favorites


I think I speak for all Bridgerton stans when I say what a relief it is that it’s June. I’ve been on the edge of my seat waiting for part two of season three, and finally, it’s here! Mostly, I’m chomping at the bit to find out what happens between our beloved Penelope Featherington and Colin Bridgerton, but I’m also looking forward to even more mesmerizing beauty looks since the first half of the season didn’t disappoint in this department. Shout-out to the show’s incredible glam team—they’ve truly outdone themselves this time around.

Honestly, the beauty editor in me never stops working, so I knew I had to have a chat with the masterminds behind a few key makeup and hair looks this season so far. If you’re dying to know a bit more about the products they used on set, keep on reading. I tracked down all the details so you don’t have to.

The Makeup Looks

First, Bridgerton makeup artist Jessie Deol shared more about the overall mood for this season and how she crafted each beauty look for this season’s star, Nicola Coughlan. “We started off knowing it was a glow-up, so we had a look at all her past looks,” says Deol. “Nicola has amazing eyes and skin, so I think my main objective was to make them pop on camera. I used colors and shapes that would make her eyes bluer and [give her] skin just a lovely glow. I am a big believer [that] if you get the base right, everything else falls into place. The next was costume and hairstyling. Farida [Ghwedar], Erika [Ökvist], and I would get a costume-fitting board with her costumes for that block. Farida and I would then do separate mood boards and then come together and streamline what would complement the overall look. If it was a light-colored dress with hair down, I knew I would be looking at very blended-out eyes, glossy lips—a more natural makeup [look].”
