What are the Trumps’ beauty routines? Donald fusses over washing his ‘beautiful hair’ while Melania had her own glam room in the White House

- Ivanka doesn’t own a hairdryer while Tiffany’s signature make-up inspires influencers – but she appeared barefaced with mum Marla Maples in an art project
- Melania uses skin care products with vitamins A, C and E – but opts to slather son Barron in caviar
Living in the White House for four years means spending a lot of time under close scrutiny. Former first lady Melania, and former first daughters Ivanka and Tiffany, follow a strict protocol when it comes to their signature looks, but Donald and his son Barron have interesting grooming regimes too.
Ivanka’s blush brush trick

Ivanka has revealed how she drinks water with lemon daily to stay hydrated and doesn’t wear nail polish because she chips it so easily. When she was a teenager, her mother Ivana even woke her up in the middle of the night once to insist that she remove her make-up.
Her hair may often look perfectly blown but that’s most likely because she’s had professional help. Ivanka admitted in 2016 that she doesn’t own a hairdryer, and has never learned how to use one. “Most days, I walk to work with my hair still slightly wet,” she told New Beauty. Ivanka also advises spritzing hairspray onto a blush brush and using it to smooth flyaway hairs.
Perhaps she can pass the tip on to her father.
Donald’s perfect shower
In 2020, it emerged that the then-president wrote off US$700,000 in taxed income for his hair-related expenses. However the cost of hiring hair stylists wasn’t the only shocker to emerge about his wispy tresses. At a White House event, he complained about poor pressure in shower heads, saying: “You just stand there longer, or you take a shower longer? Because my hair – I don’t know about you, but it has to be perfect. Perfect.”
