Secrets behind Ivanka Trump's glowing Miami style revealed as she embraces socialite circles
Ever since Ivanka Trump made the move to Miami, Florida, it seems like she's been glowing more than ever - and now, makeup and tan artists are revealing all the secrets behind her dazzling visage.
Since leaving politics in 2021, Ivanka and her husband, Jared Kushner, made the decision to move to Surfside with their three children, daughter Arabella, 13, and sons Joseph, 10 and Theodore, eight.
And, after moving away from Washington, D.C., Ivanka has slowly started to open up on her Instagram page, giving viewers a peek into her personal life with glimpses at glamorous nights out, family time and even her workout routine.
Ivanka and Jared seem to have been reembraced by their socialite friends in recent months, too, as they've been snapped hanging out at hotspots all across Miami with famous friends like Kim Kardashian.
This year, they appear to be back in the fold and have been pictured at several glamorous events in Miami.
It's even been rumored that Ivanka and Jared are on the guest list of Jeff Bezos ' Italian wedding to Lauren Sanchez this summer.
However, with her return to socialite life, there is something that her Instagram followers can't get over, and it's her style and makeup.
'LOVE your outfits!!! Such bangers, every one! And look at you such a stunner!!' one person commented on Ivanka's recent post, as she stood next to her husband in a high-necked, gold knit dress.
Another typed, 'Stunning and classy as usual.'
So, what's really behind Ivanka's Miami glow?
According to professional makeup artist Alexa Persico, Ivanka has 'mastered the art of restraint' when it comes to her looks.
'Ivanka's glow is never greasy or overly done... it's refined, hydrated, and healthy,' Persico, who is the founder of namesake makeup brand Alexa Persico Cosmetics, told exclusively.
'I imagine she uses a mix of skincare-forward products with subtle light-reflecting finishes,' Persico continued.
It's something that would have been learned over all the years of being in the public eye, and working with various makeup and beauty experts.
'Instead of piling on layers, she likely focuses on key areas think very hydrated skin, a soft cream blush and targeted radiance on the high points of the face,' Persico said.
'A hydrating mist is likely always in her bag to refresh her always throughout the day,' she shared. 'That kind of effortless polish comes from years of knowing what works best for your features and keeping the routine streamlined.'
Persico also noted that Ivanka has changed up her makeup looks as she's aged, now focusing on having a 'natural, fresh-faced glow.'
'Early on, she leaned into more structured glam matte finishes, defined eyes, and heavier coverage,' the professional makeup artist explained.
'Her current look is all about clean skin, soft color, and that perfect balance between beauty and minimalism. It's refined and modern exactly what we see trending right now,' Persico said.
If you're looking to re-create her look at home, Persico suggests using a tinted moisturizer and a cream blush for a 'natural flush.'
'Skip the powder, and finish with another layer of mist to lock in that dewy finish,' she said.
But besides makeup, there's another beauty tool that Ivanka may be using to her advantage.
'As a celebrity spray tanning artist, I can confidently say that Ivanka's signature glow very likely comes from regular spray tans,' Mishel Chernyavskiy, founder and CEO of MSK Tans in New York, told
'Over the years, I'd guess she's learned to stay out of the sun and rely on sunless tanning to keep her skin looking youthful, radiant, and even-toned,' Chernyavskiy said.
Chernyavskiy also noted that spray tans after a 'safer alternative' to going out in the sun, and can also give an 'airbrushed' finish that we typically see in Ivanka's photos.
'To achieve a flawless glow like hers, she'd need to be diligent about exfoliating before tanning and either have a skilled spray tan artist or use a high-quality gradual self-tanner,' the tan artist offered.
However, not everything around her makeup routine is shrouded in mystery.
During a January appearance on The Skinny Confidential Him & Her podcast, Ivanka revealed a few of her favorite makeup products with the audience, including what foundation she reaches for.
'I have been using this makeup product from Estée Lauder since I was like 14 years old, and it's a concealer... it's called Maximum Coverage,' Ivanka revealed during the episode.
She explained that the $55 bottle was quite large, and joked that she's only been through about three of them since she was young.
'I don't love so much foundation,' the former Presidential Advisor admitted, explaining that she dabs the makeup under her eyes.
When it comes to her favorite skincare products, Ivanka loves to use serums and moisturizers, she said.
'I am addicted to lip moisturizer,' the former model confessed.
'Wherever I go, on my bedside table, there's a lip moisturizer,' she continued.
'My favorite one was by Glossier, the Balm Dotcom, and they've changed the formula, so I'm like, on a mission to find the original. I have a few bottles left.'
For body moisturizers, she uses one called The Lymphatic Drainage Effect by the brand Gente, which she says was actually started by one of her friends.
'It is so good and it smells so delicious, it's a Brazilian formulation, it's amazing, it's beautiful,' she shared of the $34 product.
