I couldn’t agree more, I really wish that they had went for a more natural, youthful, fresh look. I did like the parts of the interview that they printed however; she comes across like a very sweet young lady.

In candids she is quite pretty even without the airbrushing...she doesn't have that horsey face so common in that family.

As a fashion model, I can say that it shouldn't hurt her confidence in this situation: one knows before one poses that quite a bit will be done to the photographs before they are released. First of all, you don't look like yourself to begin with. Sure, you can be recognised as you, but when someone else has spent so much time on your hair and make-up (way, way more than you can tell) you don't feel like you look like yourself. Then you know that a ton of stuff will be done to the photograph before it is published: that's not a shocker when it happens. No matter how natural a model's pic is it has been HUGELY altered. And that's what this photoshoot is: she is modeling high fashion for Tatler, even though she's giving an interview.

Even if they hadn't airbrushed it, she wouldn't look anything like herself. No matter how natural make-up and hair are made to look, they are the result of a ton of time and work to mostly cover up a person and leave simply the best features.

This article demonstrates your point, perfectly!

I don't think Beatrice has lost weight, she has just been 'remodeled' for this photoshoot. What I can't understand is why they feel the need to 'sell' themselves in a magazine. I am glad she feels safe traveling on the tube, but who wouldn't with a couple of bodyguards!

Here are some more comparisons between "natural look" and "dressed-up look" of celebrities (text is unfortunately in German, but the pics (77!) are self-explainable...)

I liked your comment about travelling the tube with bodyguards. LOL!.

Judging from the pics from the christmas service, Eugenie has just the right weight - why Tatler felt they had to turn her into such a super-slim girl is beyond me. Okay, she is not a model but got the cover because of who she is, but then they should take her as she is.

I get that all the cover girls on magazines are airbrushed and I don’t expect Eugenie’s photograph to be any different but I hate that they slimmed her down so much. She is a healthy looking 18 year old girl; it is a shame they couldn’t allow that on their cover. I think this whole size zero craze is getting out of all control.

She looks great and strange. I know her (like many here) as chuby girl but on Tatler she looks like not her. To thin and affected like plastic doll...

That's just awful lot of airbrushing, she looked gaunt in the photos. And i thought the makeup was heavy handed.

I wish the editors hadn't been so heavy handed with the airbrushing! Her head does look to big for her body. It almost looks as if her head was photoshopped onto someone ele's body.

Sorry to correct, I have an A-Level in History of Art, from one of Britain's minor public schools. This places academic, scientific, historical obviously, demands upon the candidate, with a real aptitude for memorising dates, periods, movements and important historical events.

Chilling out: Princess Eugenie takes to the slopes for a less than lavish 18th birthday | the Daily Mail

Eugenie does seem to be far more private than her elder sister.

Thanks for the link with the new pics of the birthday girl, Beck

With that skiing outfit, the sun glasses and the bandeau Eugenie reminds
me so much of the cute little girl she has been, not like the fashion
girl who greeted us from the Tatler cover Nice to see her there with
her family, celebrating her birthday like that. But a big party will surely
follow..
