Duchess Sophie's under £5 eyelash trick was revealed in a recent post from the Royal Family - and we think it's brilliant!

Sophie, the Duchess of Edinburgh looked lovely in a recent post from the Royal Family that showed her attending an engagement with 200 Ukrainian refugees at a Christmas party at The Lighthouse in Woking. In one of the images, it was clear that the Duchess has used one of the best makeup hacks for women as she used a light pair of false half eyelashes to elevate her makeup look.

An image showed the Duchess focusing on painting a little girl's face and while her eyes were tilted downwards we could get a better look at this gorgously subtle false eyelashes that were perfectly placed at the outer edge of her lash-line. 

The effect of the falsies was perfect and gave the Duchess a natural and understated fluttery look. The best part about this hack is that there are so many brands that sell the best false eyelashes at a variety of different price points. So you can spend as little as £5 on a pair, to replicate this look.

Woman&Home's very own Beauty Editor gave this look her stamp of approval as she added that this was the perfect way for the Duchess of Edinburgh to add 'a soft elevation' to her everyday beauty look - which is perfect for the Christmas season.

"By placing the lashes to face towards the outer eye rather than upwards, Duchess Sophie manages a fluttery wide-eyed look. And the placement of the lashes from the middle to the outer part of the eye, avoiding the smaller inner part of the eye, makes it a really subtle look perfect for adding a soft elevation to your beauty look for a casual Christmas or daytime event," said Aleesha.
