Regency Era Makeup Is the Latest Beauty Trend to Try

Vibrant Flush

Ladies and diamonds didn’t mess around with blush back in the Regency era. The heavier the application, the better. Sometimes they applied the same flush of color on their cheeks and lips. We recommend using a cream product, like the EM Cosmetics So Soft Blush in Bitten, if you’re going to try out the look. 

Semi-Matte Skin 

Dewy skin had yet to become a major beauty trend during the 1800s. Instead, people opted for natural-looking matte skin with just enough luminosity to give their complexions some life. If you want to replicate the look, try the Lancôme Teint Idôle Ultra Wear Foundation Stick. It has a matte finish that wears beautifully throughout the day. 

Full Eyebrows and Fluttery Lashes

Eyebrows back in the 1800s hadn’t yet seen the overplucking trend that swept the ‘90s. They were full and bushy in the best ways, and when combined with wispy lashes, they kept the attention on the eyes. Recreate defined lashes with a coat of the L’Oréal Paris Telescopic Original Mascara. 

Gold Lids and Berry Lips 

When they did use eyeshadow, many women during the Regency era opted for soft gold and neutral shades. Subtle eyeshadow was paired with rosy cheeks and bitten-looking lips. Try out a berry lip color for yourself with the Valentino Beauty Rosso Valentino Refillable Lipstick in Pink Instinct.
