FULL TITLE | Hillary Clinton Spent 600 Hours on Her Beauty Routine in 2016: 'I Was So Shocked, I Checked the Math Twice'

During last year’s presidential campaign, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton was under constant scrutiny for every move she made in the public eye, and as a female candidate it frequently was her physical appearance that made headlines rather than her political stance. Clinton candidly details her experience on the campaign trail in her new memoir, What Happened, and her beauty routine is not something she overlooked.

“I’ve never gotten used to how much effort it takes just to be a woman in the public eye,” Clinton wrote in her memoir, according to an excerpt provided to Refinery29. All of that effort to fit society’s beauty standards resulted in a lot of time spent in the hair and makeup chair during her campaign—Clinton calculated a grand total of “about 600 hours, or 25 days. I was so shocked, I checked the math twice.”

Why did you post a photo of Jon Voight?

[John Milner]

When you include her afternoon naps that she jokingly calls “beauty sleep” yeah, I could see that.

[Albion Wilde]

This woman is such a miserable excuse for a feminist. Poor her! Poor, poor her! For pity’s sake, quit complaining.

[sport]

She needs to go get her money back then because she got gypped [screwed].

[Songcraft]

It costs her quite a bit of moola to have the sandblasting done to her face so often...

The time, 600 hours, must be a predetermined limit. Doing the job right would have been infinitely expensive

[browniexyz]

Nope. Still not enough time.

[nutmeg]

Whoa... ROTFL!

[Flaming Conservative]

If you consider the relatively small number of appearances she made, it required far more than 2 hours a day. IIRC, she usually made no more than three appearances a week, then recuperated for several days. She was and is often late for appearances. I think I’ve figured out why:

LOL

Hey! You need to apologize to Jon Voight!!

[Old Grumpy]

>>>Dr. Diazepam needed two sharps containers a day. The vodka guy needed two fifths a day. And Huma needed a ton of mouthwash.<<<

LOL! You sure nailed that one right on the head!

[Enchante]

ROFL. Good points!

She needs more than the full 600 hours of work per year, but that is the absolute minimum she can get.   (Here she goes at only about 200-300 hours of work per year, but you can see that's not sufficient...)

It’s surprising, I didn’t think she spent any beauty time. From the looks of it, she should have spent at least 6,000 hours.

The cost of just constructing the scaffold must be enormous!

I was just about to drop off to sleep! Thanks for that.

And welcome to FR. You *¢&!@!#
