Photographer talks about Trump's use of bronzer on his face.

Photographer explains why Trump’s use of bronzer gets worse with stress

She explained that for years, she’d thought that Trump’s changing tan colour was a choice made primarily for TV audiences.

“But lately, I feel like something more psychological is happening,” she continued. “When Trump took office in 2017, he was significantly less orange... but as his term wore on, more bronzer was applied.

“The more stressed... the more makeup. And then when out of office, the makeup would only reappear for the cameras. But it was mostly toned down. Then something interesting happened. After Trump’s debate with Biden in June 2024, the makeup all but disappears.

“When Trump was up in the polls, and a victory was all but certain, the bronzer was gone.”

She then shared a very recent picture of the former president looking distinctly darker.

“Believe me when I tell you we’ve never seen him like this,” she said. “Also, it appears he’s doing his hands now?”

She also noted that the “mask” of makeup tends to get “darker towards the end of his presidential campaigns”

However, for Elsie the issue is not a laughing matter as she asked followers to stop DM’ing her about how “silly” he looks.

“I don’t think he looks silly, I think he looks trapped,” she said. “He is acting just like we do when we are a) insulated b) insecure c) surrounded by pictures of ourselves”.
