If the photos — and, more importantly, the beauty looks — from Sunday’s premiere weren’t enough to get you excited for Netflix’s upcoming drama limited series Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story, the photos — and, more importantly, the beauty looks — from the premiere will have you counting down the minutes until May 4th.
As the stars walked down the red carpet, there were a slew of jaw-dropping gowns that were literal works of art, but the hair and makeup looks are equally impressive.
Here are the beauty looks at this year’s most talked-about premiere, from head-turning up-dos and jewelled headbands to subtle makeup glams. Prepare to save these to your saved folder.
Mercy Eke
Mercy looked stunning at the premiere, and we award her the gold medal for style. Mercy chose dewy skin and glossy nude lips for her beauty look, which kept her look fresh without overpowering her show-stopping gown.
