Simone Ashley's Met Gala look was truly fit for a Viscountess
Simone was the embodiment of the 'season's diamond'
Simone Ashley’s Met Gala look showed us a new, edgy side to Bridgerton’s Viscountess, Kate Sharma—from a long slick ponytail to a seriously sexy smokey eye. And we know exactly which beauty products were used to create the look...
When the Met Gala 2022 announced its seemingly Bridgerton-inspired theme of the ‘Gilded Age,’ we knew the cast of the hit Netflix show would represent. Of course, we were proven right with the likes of Nicola Coughlan’s Met Gala look channeling the Featherington name, Phoebe Dynevor’s black lace number and of course, Simone’s own gold embroidered two-piece.
The star of Bridgerton season two truly brought her A-game for her first-ever Met Gala appearance and has already (in our opinion anyway) cemented her place into fashion royalty.

Simone Ashley’s Met Gala look
Simone took to the iconic red carpet wearing a two-piece, black Moschino gown with a gold embroidered bustier and shimmered like the diamond she is. She wore her hair slicked back into a long ponytail and her makeup was, in a word, flawless.
It will come as no surprise to our ‘dearest readers’ that the products used to create her seamless makeup look were all exclusively Pat McGrath—the brand behind the Bridgerton makeup line and the cast’s equally stunning looks at the season two premiere.
However this time, instead of the rosy blush and glowy highlight we’ve grown accustomed to seeing on the eldest Sharma sister, her makeup artist, Alex Babsky went for something a bit more smokey and seductive.

How to get Simone Ashley’s Met Gala look
For Simone’s eyes, Babsky used the Pat McGrath Mothership VIII: Divine Rose II Palette in shades 'Xtreme burgundy', 'skinshow' and 'Rose opal' to create that warm, brown smokey eye and the Perma Precision Liquid Eyeliner for her perfect winged eyeliner.

For Simone's eye look, Babsky used shades: XTREME BURGUNDY, SKINSHOW and ROSE OPAL.
For her diffused and flawless skin base, Babsky used the fan-favorite Skin Fetish: Sublime Perfection Foundation along with the Sublime Perfect Conclear and the Skin Fetish blush.

Pat McGrath Skin Fetish: Sublime Perfection Concealer

This velvety Concealer delivers flawless full coverage while still having a lightweight, 'creamy-whipped' feel.
For her dreamy wine, matte lip, Babsky then used the lip combo of the Permagel Ultra Lip Pencil in 'Brownouveaux' and the Matte Trance Lipstick in 'Flesh 5.' These two products together and a match made in heaven for the perfect, precise long-wearing pout.
