English version | #RoyalShelfies

If fairy tale princesses had Instagram, what products would they display in the photos of their Beauty shelves? Their personalities have given us enough clues so we can imagine what their #shelfies would look like.

Elsa

Skincare and haircare are no easy task in the ice kingdom but somehow Elsa seems to have no problem. Her frosty blonde hair clearly benefits from special attention, as does her skin, which remains miraculously hydrated. Makeup serves only to enhance her natural glow, opting for discreet but shimmery products.

Maleficent 

The character which Angelina Jolie played in 2014 may not fit the typical definition of a princess, but the truth is that her makeup is one of the most recreated by Disney fans. Her pale face is known for its intense contouring, and we are yet to understand how it is possible to have such a penetrating eye look. And the red lipstick? A must-have.

Aurora

Never has the saying "beauty sleep" made so much sense. It's nothing new to say that a good night's sleep has magical effects on the condition of our skin, and Aurora (or Sleeping Beauty, as she is better known) is a clear example of this. In her beauty kit we find the essentials for a restful night's sleep and, of course, a lip scrub, because a kiss awaits us when we open our eyes.

Moana

With warm weather just around the corner, we look to Moana as the big Summer inspiration. Her bronzed complexion is never without good sunscreen, and her tropical lifestyle begs for products that are functional, quick to use, and made from natural ingredients. We have selected the steps of a simple, but very effective Beauty routine.

Tiana

It is in a palette of green tones that The Princess and the Frog movie is painted, so we imagine that the same should be true of Tiana's Beauty shelf. This is a character who has two facets: one centered on her humility and hard work, and another with shades of glamour just like any other princess' life. A duality that had to shine through in her shelfie.
