1. Ever Matte Shine Control Mineral Powder Compact Clarins Queen Elizabeth was famously crowned wearing Clarins cosmetics, after commissioning the company to create a shade of lipstick that went with her coronation robes. These days, she’s still using the brand’s products regularly (Clarins holds a royal warrant for “skincare and cosmetics”), and it’s rumored that its Ever Matte powder is among the Queen’s must-haves. 2. Nail Polish in Ballet Slippers Essie According to Essie’s website (and a few other sources), the Queen’s hairdresser wrote the brand’s founder, Essie Weingarten, back in 1989 to request a bottle of Ballet Slippers. Rumor has it that to this day, it’s the only polish that graces Her Majesty’s nails. 3. Hand and Nail Treatment Cream Clarins This tube of hand and nail cream is rumored to “never run out at the palace,” per the Telegraph. After all, if she’s getting her nails done regularly, the Queen surely has to keep up that perfect manicure. 4. Beautiful Color Moisturising Lipstick Elizabeth Arden The Queen has long been a fan of Elizabeth Arden’s lipsticks—according to Hello, the brand has held a royal warrant for over 55 years. Though it’s not known exactly which color the British monarch prefers, she does tend to sport bold pink shades. 5. Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant Elizabeth Arden Another one of the Queen’s Elizabeth Arden favorites is the brand’s Eight Hour Cream, according to the Telegraph. In 2016, a press representative said the brand frequently communicated with the Queen’s senior dresser, Angela Kelly, to service the monarch. “We work closely with Angela and her team to ensure we provide excellent service for whatever Her Majesty requires, or would like to try,” the representative said, per the Telegraph. While they didn’t confirm precisely what products those were, they said, “We can reveal however that we are immensely proud.” 6. Delicious Rhubarb & Rose Bath & Shower Gel Molton Brown Yet another royal warrant-holder, Molton Brown has the privilege of supplying the Queen with “toiletries.” Again, no one’s managed to discover the particular products the monarch enjoys, but based on her penchant for pink, we’re theorizing that Kent Kent is the world’s oldest brush manufacturer, and has held a royal warrant for a whopping nine reigning monarchs, including Queen Elizabeth. 8. White Rose Eau de Toilette Floris According to Floris, the likes of Frankenstein author Mary Shelley, King George IV, and Florence Nightingale were all devotees—meaning that Queen Elizabeth is in good company. Floris has a royal warrant from the Queen, as her “perfumers,” and although she’s never mentioned the scent she’s keen on, we’re betting on the floral White Rose. this body wash is a strong contender. 7.
