Kayleigh McEnany Surprises Fans with Rare No-Makeup Look
Donald Trump’s inner circle is renowned for its high-glam makeup style, earning the term “Mar-A-Lago” face due to its characteristic appeal. Among those who embrace this look is Fox News host and former White House press secretary, Kayleigh McEnany. Known for her striking blond hair and heavily lined eyes, McEnany surprised fans with a throwback Instagram post in December 2020, where she appeared almost bare-faced on a beach. The absence of her typical heavy makeup routine was a striking reminder of how changing your beauty approach can refresh your appearance.
Makeup Mistakes to Avoid for a Youthful Appearance
The use of wrong makeup techniques can unintentionally age a person’s appearance. While this can project maturity and authority—useful for public figures like McEnany on Fox News—not everyone wants this effect. One prominent mistake is appearing overly tanned onscreen, a common issue for Republican women in the media. Heavily powdered looks and overuse of foundation can also detract from a youthful appearance. According to makeup artist Monika Blunder, aiming for a natural, hydrated complexion helps in achieving a younger look.
Blunder suggests choosing foundations and concealers with dewy finishes rather than matte ones. Although finishing powders can create a smooth look, they often highlight wrinkles on aging skin. For a youthful glow, experts recommend a lighter application of powder.
Tips for Achieving a Natural Glow
- Select a foundation that mimics your skin’s natural luminosity.
- Use less powder to avoid settling into fine lines.
- Opt for a natural look by limiting heavy eyeliner and false lashes.
Thick mascara and false eyelashes, often seen in McEnany’s makeup style, can add unnecessary harshness to the eyes. This heaviness, especially around the outer eye corners, can falsely suggest drooping, detracting from a youthful appearance. By adjusting these elements, individuals like McEnany can maintain a fresh and vibrant look.
