During last year\u2019s 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, <\/em>and her beauty routine is not something she overlooked.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve never gotten used to how much effort it takes just to be a woman in the public eye,\u201d Clinton wrote in her memoir, according to an excerpt provided to Refinery29. All of that effort to fit society\u2019s beauty standards resulted in a lot of time spent in the hair and makeup chair during her campaign\u2014Clinton calculated a grand total of \u201cabout 600 hours, or 25 days. I was so shocked, I checked the math twice.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Even though Clinton stayed productive during those hours by preparing for briefings and scheduling phone calls, she still hated to spend valuable time that her male counterparts didn\u2019t have to. \u201cI\u2019m not jealous of my male colleagues often, but I am when it comes to how they can just shower, shave, put on a suit, and be ready to go. The few times I\u2019ve gone out in public without makeup, it\u2019s made the news,\u201d she wrote.<\/p>\n

Even after the election, Clinton still found herself on the receiving end of criticism for choosing to wear minimal makeup to speak at a Children\u2019s Defense Fund event, proving her point that no matter how worthy the context, critics will be quick to comment on a woman\u2019s appearance.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Clinton has fought for plenty in her career, but she knows that the battle to spend less time on your appearance as a woman in the public eye is a losing one. \u201cI sigh, and keep getting back in that chair, and dream of a future in which women in the public eye don\u2019t need to wear makeup if they don\u2019t want to, and no one cares either way,\u201d she wrote.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
