Princess Eugenie put together a standout look for the final day of Royal Ascot 2025 – and wore one of her most daring makeup looks.

The daughter of the Duke and Duchess of York, 35, stole the spotlight with her black smokey eye – a highly unexpected look from the royal who normally favours a more natural aesthetic. 

Eugenie wore a dark eyeshadow blended across her eyelids with a deep black shade on the lashline.

A pair of false lashes added to the sense of drama and she also wore a dark eyeshadow blended under her eyes too.

Usually a fan of a 'your-lips-but-better' lipstick shade, Eugenie switched it up, rounding off her makeup look with a 90s brown lipstick.

Her stellar fashion moment

Eugenie's bold makeup look was used as an accessory to her red Whistles gown with a keyhole neckline and A-line silhouette.

Elevating her outfit was an array of lovely accessories. Her 'Mounia' hat by Emily London was the most captivating piece, adding structure and a certain vintage appeal to the look.
