What is this? She was actually working up until the day the VP selection was announced, at an extremely demanding job, and then coming home to 3 kids. That's where her thoughts were. She doesn't have to work, but the fact that she chose the job she chose makes me think that she has some degree of distance from JDs life. I would absolutely believe that this has been a whirlwind for her and it hasn't had that much time to sink in.

Blue and red dresses where great. Last day of the convention she has a "WTF have I gotten myself into" look on her face the entire time.

She is a seasoned professional and a politician's wife - she should ALREADY have had the nice dresses and nice shoes and makeup routine established. She's not some schlumpy stay at home who wears yoga pants and her hair in a messy bun all day!

You are confusing the wardrobe of litigator and someone who was literally on the biggest stage last week. I don’t understand why she would have a makeup routine that included stage lights.

THE WARDROBE OF A SENATOR'S WIFE. It's not like she hasn't been on a stage with him before.

She obviously does have the wardrobe of a senator’s wife. Have you heard a peep about her wardrobe until this week?

I find nothing wrong with her dresses, I do think she could have done a better job with her makeup, but I am also South Asian and also struggle with dark under eyes.

I’m a dark skinned South Asian too but more than 10 years older than Usha. I have always foundation matching pretty difficult, even now with the brands founded by Indians. It seems like there are South Asians posting who don’t have these issues. I’m curious if they just have a very different tone or whether they have found some brand I don’t know about.

I’m black, not South Asian, but what I have noticed with my SE Asian friends is that sometimes the foundations that people suggest for them have the wrong undertone. If you have warm, golden undertones, I highly recommend Bobbi Brown foundations; people think I have amazing skin and don’t wear makeup, but I wear a light liquid Bobbi brown foundation daily. I also use her foundation sticks in a shade or two lighter than my normal color as a concealer for dark spots and the under eye area. May be worth a try. You also might want to try Fenty as it comes in a lot of shades for medium to dark skin tones with different undertones. Good luck!

Of course you would! 😂😂😂

Why yes, yes i do!

Maybe you should have gone to community college after all.

DP who loves make up, beauty, and fashion - personally, I’ve found that my Harvard JD serves me well.

Can we PLEASE stop the trope that smart, accomplished women can’t also love traditionally feminine things?

I don’t think anyone thinks that, but let’s just say the Ivy’s are known for a few things but beautiful women is at the bottom of the list.

Thank you to this poster above and to all those who have offered tips. I have fallen down the internet rabbit hole trying to figure out my undertone and looking at Chanel products which honestly I had always assumed would not be for me. I have been told I have both red and yellow tones at various points of the year, which might explain some of my trouble. Thanks again!

I believe it’s color corrector cream. But BB cream, CC cream, concealer, etc., it all seems like various ways to market foundation.

WTH? Why should she wear her mom’s sari? How incredibly absurd. Not to mention, I highly doubt an academic such as her mother even wears a sari.

??? Why wouldn’t an academic wear a sari?

The point is, why should Usha Vance wear a sari, as the PP so stupidly suggested.

I’m chiming in to agree with the PP. I’ve had good luck with Bobbi Brown powders and eyeshadows, but Fenty Beauty is the first line that has been able to give me a good match for foundation. Start with Fenty, then if you can get a close match that’s not quite doing it for you, your foundation number might make it easier for us to give you recommendations. MAC might also be with a look.

Instead of trying to figure it out yourself, take a day when you have some time and let some make up artists make suggestions. Maybe start at a Sephora, since they have a range of makeup lines including Fenty Beauty — as I co-signed earlier. Ask a few different muas for suggestions, since different people have experience with different lines, and different levels of experience with color matching. Also — when you think you’ve found a good match, borrow a mirror and step outside to see how you like it in natural light.
I’m also a Black woman, and if I were going to wear foundation regularly, I’d probably need 2different shades for summer and winter. As it is, I usually wear powder — which is easier to match, and a good fit with my oily skin.

+1
On the Fenty recommendation

I am South Asian and old enough to remember being in college and going up to makeup counters for foundation (why? I don't know, I had perfect skin then) only to be told that the darkest color was many shades lighter than my skin.

Fenty is one of the more recent ( there are others, I forget their names) which gives me a great match.

Thank you! I said almost exactly this earlier on this thread and was completely ignored.

Yes, that would just bring attention to her heritage and skin color which would not go over well with MAGA.

Your posts are ridiculous. No one cares that she is Indian American. Just trolls on both the right and the left.

So which is it?

No one cares. Or that "trolls" who seem to make up a strong segment of the GOP, care that she's 1) not white 2) of Indian descent 3) not Christian.

JD had glow up relative to four years ago…but he looks like he aged 10 years in four years: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C9kVybrOeed/?igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

Small children and two careers run us regular folks ragged.

Add in a Senate seat and near constant travel, fundraising, campaigning and living a life in the public eye and that will take a toll.

Enough with this “sell your souls” stuff other posters are saying. So juvenile.

lots of other people in the public eye know to brush their hair and wear some lipstick. they know this because they’re in the public eye.

Her hair was certainly brushed and styled - you just didn’t “approve” of how it was styled. Good thing she’s her own person and doesn’t consult randos about how she should look.

The Trump women are all styled for public appearances, yet that never stops people like you from criticizing their fashions.
DP

How on earth was her hair "brushed and styled"?! Are we talking about the same person? I'm not saying she needed some Becky Blowout but could she AT LEAST have used a bobby pin to keep her hair out of her eyes which making a speech to an audience of thousands, broadcast on national television? Feel free to respond with some politicized remark/~aCkShUALLY her hair iS BEAUTIFUL buT yeR JuSt JeaLous~!"

I actually have gone to Sephora, Ulta, Macys, and the Bloomingdales counter and the matches are still tough. Last time I was in Sephora (earlier this year), the woman was pretty rude. Most people who come in know what they want and they are not over 50, so it’s frustrating for both sides I think. I kind of shrink in the store after that kind of encounter. But your point about asking for multiple opinions and look at the match in the sunshine is well taken.
