WHY IS DONALD TRUMP'S SKIN ORANGE?
No one seems to know for sure, but at least 3 theories come out of the White House.
What is the origin of the orange color on the face of President Donald Trump? Apparently, no one knows for sure, while the intense orange hue of Trump's face remains a mystery even within his White House.
However, an article published by The New York Times offers at least three possible explanations for the president's carrot-colored complexion, even during the winter months.
First, Trump's famous orange tan is the result of "good genes," an administration official told the Times, who also declined to see his name published.
And also some translucent powder, which is not a bronzer, that the president applies before television appearances, the anonymous official said.
THE TANNING BED
But the most buzzing rumor is that Trump has a tanning bed.
So said Jason Kelly, a makeup artist who worked for the 2016 Republican Convention.
"I know exactly what he does to himself: the tanning bed, the spray tan, he wears glasses and you can see the hyperpigmentation around his eyes," Kelly revealed.
For her part, Omarosa Manigault, the former contestant of The Apprentice who later worked in the campaign and in the Trump administration, assured in her book Unhinged: An Insider Account of the Trump White House. a member of Trump's White House), that the president uses a tanning bed and that an aide was fired because he mishandled the transport of the device.
But according to three people who have spent time in the White House residence, they claimed that there is no such bed or tanning booth in a hidden corner of the residence, a crevice in the East Wing, or in a closet on the presidential Air Force One plane. .
Two senior White House officials insisted to the New York Times that there is no such apparatus.
CREAMS, LOTIONS
The third and final theory is that Trump uses self-tanning lotions or creams.
Tina Alster, a top Washington dermatologist who told the newspaper that she had treated White House officials, claimed that the president, whom she does not treat, uses creams or sprays to achieve his orange appearance.
"It looks more orange than tan," a telltale sign, Alster said.
Another sign, and one that would rule out dietary supplements or drugs that give the skin a general tan, Alster added, is the white circles often present under Trump's eyes when he makes a public appearance.
