YouTuber Tess Paras has gone political with her latest makeup tutorial. Providing some comedic relief during America's trying 2016 presidential elections, Paras is showing her devoted viewers how to create a Donald Trump beauty look.
It is made very clear from the beginning of the video that this makeup tutorial is more of a satire piece as opposed to an actual beauty tutorial. Using concealer, bronzer, other makeup and even a bag of Cheetos, Paras walks viewers through a step-by-step tutorial on how to look like the nation's most talked about candidate. While explaining how and where to apply the makeup, Paras also shares her views on the celebrity politician with witty banter.
The final product results in a look that is an uncanny and absolutely hilarious resemblance to the controversial candidate.
