The Duchess of Cambridge has quickly adapted her royal wardrobe to adapt to covid guidelines, and has made sure her cotton face masks complement her outfits perfectly.
But have you noticed that Kate's face coverings always look perfectly fitted and snug? There's no chance of her having to shuffle it around, or stop it from slipping, like many of us find.

The Duchess gets the majority of her face masks from Amaia Kids, where she often shops for her children's clothes - and though there are both adult and kids masks available, many fans think that she opts for the miniature sizes in order to keep them well-fitted.

Plenty of royal watchers have even taken to social media to debate her choice, though after trying the masks ourselves, HELLO! can reveal that Kate does choose to wear the children's sizes - though both masks look very similar. She may even tighten the elastic strands to give a closer fit.

Even better, her favourite Amaia Kids masks donate 30 per cent of profits to NHS Charities Together - so the royal's choices often have a philanthropic element, too.
Kate's favourite floral face masks have certainly sparked a trend. When she first stepped out wearing one in August 2020, digital fashion aggregator Lyst reported a 185 per cent spike in searches for 'floral', 'Liberty print' and 'ditsy print' face masks within 24 hours. Now that's the Kate effect!
