Meghan Markle Inspires New Freckle Tattoo Trend

Meghan Markle is bringing back the natural look so much so that women are getting new freckle tattoos just so they can look like her. That’s right – fashionistas and style mavens on both side of the pond are now sporting their freckles with pride rather than covering them up, thanks to the Duchess of Sussex, who has opted not to use coverage foundation to cover up her freckles.

In fact, Meghan helped boost customer interest in tattoo freckles. According to Elle Magazine, freckle tattoo pro Gabrielle Rainbow recently confirmed the new trend, telling media outlets that she’s been “crazy busy” ever since Meghan proudly showed off her own tattoos during the royal wedding last month.

Gabrielle explains, “When they are freshly done, they will appear swollen almost like bee stings, and the swelling will go down within a couple hours and you’ll be left with your cute, fresh freckles. Over the course of one to two months, the color will soften dramatically and look more natural. They will fade naturally with time, and if you wish to keep them you can always get the color boosted whenever you like.”

The entire process takes about an hour to complete, with the results lasting up to three years. Of course, many stylists also recommend that you use a eyebrow pencil to dot scattered freckles, should you still want to get the Meghan Markle-inspired look without going permanent with tattoos.
