Nicole Bryl, longtime makeup artist for First Lady Melania Trump, opened up about the professional fallout she’s faced for her willingness to work with the Trump family. Appearing on the Return on Identity podcast this week, Bryl revealed how her career in the beauty industry was significantly impacted by her association with Melania and Ivanka Trump.
Bryl, who has worked with the Trump family for decades, explained that when she began working with Melania, the beauty industry took a sharp turn. “Because I was working with Melania, who’s, you know, Donald’s wife, all of a sudden, beauty didn’t become beauty anymore, it became political,” she said. “And you know, I was so naive at the time. I didn’t understand why all the doors shut. People totally canceled me.”
