Suppose you (like me) have already rewatched the first part of the third season of Bridgerton approximately four times, while not-so-patiently waiting for the second part to be released on June 13th. If so, you’re probably seriously in love with Nicola Coughlan – specifically Nicola Coughlan’s skin. While she plays 19-year-old Penelope Featherington on the hit Netflix show, Nicola is 37 in real life. Crazy, right? Fortunately for all of us, beauty and Bridgerton Outside, Nicola revealed her secret to keeping her under-eye concealer flawless during her press tour. Psst: it’s just $9 on Amazon.
On a new episode in VogueBeauty Secrets Lady Whistledown shared her skincare and beauty routine, specifically highlighting the Evian Facial Spray.

A true powerhouse, the Evian spray hydrates the skin, finishes makeup and works as a stimulant throughout the day.
After applying Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer under her eyes and lids, Nicola takes Evian Spray and spritz. no on your face, but in a Beauty Blender. She then takes the sponge and spreads the concealer onto her skin. The result? Invisible concealer that blends perfectly into the skin.

The classic egg-shaped design of the iconic makeup sponge makes it super easy to apply makeup all over your face. Use the pointed tip to apply and blend the concealer.
Nars
Known for its radiant, skin-like finish, Nars Viral Concealer is lightweight, super blendable, and offers buildable coverage while leaving your skin looking like skin.
It’s not just makeup that the Irish actress uses Evian Spray as she also keeps it with her as she travels the world. “This is really good on flights,” she explains. “I feel like on flights you feel so gross when you get off them.”
As we learned from Nicola, water mist is one of the most versatile beauty products you can have in your beauty arsenal — and Amazon shoppers agree. In fact, more than 4,000 shoppers purchased one last month. I’m calling this the “Nicola effect.”
“[The spray] is the best for skin care in the morning or at night”, explains a five-star reviewer. It can also be used during the summer to refresh facial makeup applications.”
“At lunch time, I need someone to pick me up to put on makeup,” she shares. a happy Amazon customer. ‘One spray of this and my face is not only clean but hydrated and my makeup looks like I just applied it! Believe me when I say, I’ve used several different types of facial sprays and none of them compare for this.”
Just like Nicola, this buyer I never travel without a spray bottle: “I travel a lot and my skin and nasal passages get really dry when I fly. I use it when I’m a little tired too.” The same buyer added that it lasts “months” and that they carry it with them wherever they go.
So, if you want your makeup to look as flawless as Bridgerton star this summer, I highly suggest you pick up a bottle of the Evian Facial Spray. Of course, her concealer trick isn’t the only beauty secret Nicola has revealed. Scroll below to shop more of Nicola Coughlan’s favorite beauty products, including her moisturizer and dewy eye cream. About me? I’ll be here desperately waiting for the second part Bridgerton third season to drop.
Tatcha
Concealer is nothing without an eye cream base. Nicola’s favorite product is this moisturizing pick from Tatcha. It contains Hadasei-3, which is the brand’s exclusive trio of pure Japanese superfoods, including detoxifying Uji green tea, hydrating Okinawa maluku algae, and protein-rich Akita rice to nourish.
Tatcha
According to Nicola, this super rich moisturizer from Tatcha is “really good for makeup.” The purple moisturizer contains rice bran and other botanical extracts like algae, thyme, and marjoram to intensely hydrate and heal the skin’s barrier.
Nuface
This cult-favorite device uses special firming microcurrent technology to reduce the appearance of your double chin, jawline, cheeks, eyebrows, and forehead. As Nicola says when using it: “The cheekbones are high.” Apply the included water gel or cream activator to your face and swipe the device over your face once a day. Think of it as a five-minute workout for your face.
