'I was a Buckingham Palace housekeeper - Kate had the same morning habit'

Despite her busy life, the Princess of Wales consistently exudes poise and composure. A former royal household staffer has revealed that the Princess's simple yet effective morning routine plays a significant role in her polished appearance.

Anne Simmons, who spent over 12 years working in the royal residences, attributes Kate's radiant look to her well-organised and uncomplicated daily routine.

In an interview with Edit Suits, Anne explained: "She's incredibly organised. There's no chaos, no luxury overload-just a handful of carefully chosen steps that she clearly trusts."

The former cleaner disclosed that Kate's routine involves a single hair product, a natural moisturiser, and a moment of solitude before the day's activities begin.

Anne stressed that the key to Kate's successful routine lies in its consistency, stating: "There weren't dozens of serums or constant new products. Her routine didn't change. That's why it works."

To prepare for a busy day, Kate is said to start by splashing her face with cold water, a simple technique that reduces puffiness and boosts circulation, leaving her skin looking refreshed without relying on serums or creams. Anne has revealed that the royal uses Argan oil in her hair every morning, reports .

She said: "She kept a bottle of on the counter. She'd work a little through the ends of her hair after brushing."

Like many women, moisturising is an essential part of Kate's morning routine. However, Anne shared a surprising secret - instead of a high-end brand, Kate prefers a more natural alternative.

While she didn't disclose the exact brand used by the princess, Anne mentioned: "Kate's moisturiser wasn't a flashy luxury brand. It was in a simple white tube-very understated."

Another crucial aspect of Kate's morning routine is taking a moment of tranquillity before starting her day.

"She'd often sit by the window with a cup of tea for five minutes. No phone, just silence," Anne revealed.

To complete her morning routine, Kate applies minimal makeup, usually opting for some concealer and a touch of blush rather than a full face of makeup.
