The secrets behind Queen Camilla’s glamorous look: From her favourite Tom Ford lipstick which she was seen applying at Wimbledon to bee venom facials

Queen Camilla is known for her unwavering loyalty to both her staff and experts who help her look her best. 

For 35 years, she has entrusted her trademark blonde bob to Mayfair colourist, Jo Hansford.

Additionally, the royal, 76, has maintained a longstanding collaboration with nail and make-up artist, Marina Sandoval, whom she hired 15 years ago.

Speaking to MailOnline, she described her working relationship with the wife of King Charles as ‘the best’. 

Marina is credited with enhancing Camilla’s increasingly glamorous appearance, which has flourished notably since her coronation.

And she has always resisted cosmetic treatments such as botox and tucks, as revealed by royal writer Tina Brown in her book The Palace Papers.

While Camilla collaborates with Marina for official events, she often applies her own make-up.

This was evident during this year’s Wimbledon Championships, where she was seen applying Tom Ford Lip Colour herself in the Royal Box on Centre Court.

The Indian Rose shade, a medium-dark mauve, perfectly complemented her radiant complexion – and it appears to be a favourite choice for her recent beauty looks.

Launched in 2006, Tom Ford Beauty was founded in partnership with Estée Lauder executive John Demsey.

The initial release of the now-iconic Black Orchid fragrance paved the way for the brand’s expansion into a prestigious line of cosmetics and beauty products. 

The Lip Colour formula ensures a moisturising, longwearing finish, delivering up to eight hours of saturated colour fidelity.

Camilla first crossed paths with Marina at Jo Hansford’s hair salon, where she served as the in-house manicurist.

It is thought that King Charles’s wife opts for Chanel nail varnish and Sisley hand cream.

When it comes to make-up, Camilla prefers a ‘less is more’ approach, which complements her designer attire.

When Marina collaborates with the royal, she selects a lightweight foundation, often blended with tinted moisturiser, to achieve a ‘very elegant and natural’ look.

She accentuates her eyes with dark mascara and occasionally adds black liquid eyeliner, while using pencil to define her brows.

Marina’s choice of cosmetics leans towards distinguished brands, such as Sisley, Guerlain, Chanel, Bobbi Brown and Armani Beauty, providing a high-end finish for Camilla’s make-up routine.

In The Palace Papers, which was published in 2022, Ms Brown described Camilla’s appearance at the time Charles was trying to rehabilitate her reputation following Princess Diana’s death.  

She wrote: ‘Camilla resisted all improving tucks and Botox.

‘There was honesty in her countryside complexion and crinkly, smiling eyes. Her hair never presented any upsetting surprises.

‘It remained the same told blonde seventies blow-dry, with the feathery, Carmen-rollered side wings.’ 

For official events, Camilla uses one of two hairdressers, Hugh Green and Geraldine Mancini.

She is believed to adhere to a rigorous skincare routine tailored for those over 60.

This involves cleansing with a gentle cleanser and warm water using a soft cloth, exfoliating weekly and incorporating anti-ageing moisturiser into her daily regime.

Marina’s top tip is to ‘keep skin very clean and use a facemask when necessary’.

Known for her advocacy of skincare treatments, the Queen is an avid supporter of Deborah Mitchell’s famous bee venom facials.

She even recommended this treatment to Kate Middleton before her wedding to Prince William in 2011.

Costing upwards of £300, the facial utilises venom from Kenyan bees to diminish signs of ageing and promote a rejuvenated appearance, showing visible results after just one session.

Inspired by the success of her facial treatments, Deborah launched her own skincare brand, Heaven, featuring products enriched with hyaluronic acid and bee venom.

Camilla reportedly favours the Silk Skin Bee Bee Cream for its ability to impart a subtle glow to her skin.
