With the Duchess of Cambridge expecting her third child, sky-high Prada heels are out but a bottle of rosehip oil that costs under $30 is definitely in.
The former Kate Middleton has reportedly been a long-time fan of New Zealand skincare brand Trilogy, using their plant-based rosehip oil religiously on her skin to maintain her radiant glow.
The Duchess allegedly swore by the organic product when she was pregnant with Princess Charlotte to keep her skin blemish- and wrinkle-free.
Trilogy Certified Organic Rosehip Oil 20ml, $25.99
The New Zealand brand has seen the organic oil's sales figures double, with one bottle sold in the UK every 20 seconds, resulting from 'The Kate effect', a term used to describe products selling out after the royal has reportedly endorsed them.

With the Duchess suffering from a severe form of morning sickness known as hyperemesis gravidarum, the product’s natural ingredients and pure seeds oils will help ease her tired, dehydrated skin.
Rosehip oil is full of essential fatty essential fatty acids like omega 3 and 6 and has anti-ageing and anti-inflammatory properties that assist with healing scars and reducing the appearance of stretch-marks.
