Between The Donald, Rod Blogojovich and Brett Michaels, the hair alone on “Celebrity Apprentice” could get a few stylists fired, but we’re not interested in talking locks. We’d rather discuss the SKIN on this show.
We’re focusing on “Celebrity Apprentice” — not just because we get a kick out of watching celebrities grovel on the unfortunate end of that long cherry wood table — but because it features men and women of broad backgrounds and various age groups. That means we’re watching a lot of different skin types, textures and tones. In High Definition.
Scary for them, fun for us.
We’d be happy to tell you what we think of Donald Trump and Brett Michaels’ skin, but we’re not sure what lies beneath their Oompa-Loompa spray tans. So, we’ll take on the woman whose skin is “so unusual.” And we mean that in a good way.
Cyndi Lauper’s creamy complexion is one color all over. (As some of you know, until you’ve experienced acne scarring or a skin disease like Rosacea, it’s an underestimated quality.) Her skin has an evenness in its tone with no age spots or broken capillaries in sight, which is unheard of for a rock star who’s still rockin’ at age 56.
Next up, Selita Ebanks, a Victoria’s Secret Angel. We’d love to put her in harsh, fluorescent lighting and strip her of her makeup bag. Not because we’re into cruel and unusual punishment but because we’re confident her smooth skin still wouldn’t boast a single bump or depression. Go ahead and add that to your “reasons to hate Selita Ebanks” list.
Lastly, Ivanka Trump. There’s a firmness and fullness to her face that has Dr. Zein Obagi’s definition of healthy skin written all over it. Yes, she has youth on her side, but clearly she practices vigilant care or we wouldn’t need a rescue and search team to find her pores.
As for the rest of the cast: Some have definitely kept up a good skincare regime, like Maria Kanellis. But the rest of them? Let’s just say their skin is as healthy as Maria Kanellis is a bonafide celebrity.
