Ivanka Trump's makeup essentials: her go-to beauty products - and one of them is an iconic $16 lip balm
If you've ever wondered how exactly Ivanka Trump achieves her glowing, fresh-faced look, wonder no more. She's not gatekeeping her favorites — or, at the very least, she's subtly spilling the details on a handful of them.
On a recent appearance on The Skinny Confidential Him & Her podcast, Ivanka opened up about her minimalist approach to beauty, saying she prefers to 'focus on skincare rather than makeup.'
While some might expect an ultra-exclusive, inaccessible routine, it turns out some of her top picks are precisely the opposite. Read on to discover the three staples that she swears by, including an iconic lip balm and a classic coverup.
Estee Lauder Double Wear Maximum Cover Concealer
'I have been using this makeup product from Estée Lauder since I was like 14 years old,' Ivanka shared. 'It's a concealer… it's called Maximum Coverage.'
She says she doesn't love heavy foundation. Instead, Ivanka prefers to dab this full-coverage formula under her eyes. The generously sized tube has serious staying power.
She even jokes that she's only gone through about three bottles since her teen years. It's a longtime favorite for a reason: It's breathable, buildable, waterproof, and long-wearing.

Glossier Balm Dotcom
As someone who has admitted she is 'addicted to lip moisturizer,' it's understandable that Ivanka swears by Glossier's beloved Balm Dotcom.
'Wherever I go, on my bedside table, there's a lip moisturizer,' she confesses. Her top pick? The original Balm Dotcom, though she admits she's still hunting down the formula that existed before the brand changed the formula.
With its soft tint, nourishing ingredients, and fun selection, this balm is a massive cult staple.

Gente The Lymphatic Drainage Effect
Ivanka reaches for Gente's The Lymphatic Drainage Effect for top-tier body care. The Brazilian-formulated moisturizer was developed by a friend of hers.
'It is so good and it smells so delicious,' she raved, calling it 'amazing' and 'beautiful.' The luxe cream is said to boost circulation and leave skin looking smoother and feeling more toned.
If you're looking to level up your beauty routine in any way, this nourishing, tightening cream powered by caffeine could easily become your go-to, too.
