Amy Baier's 'Mar-A-Lago Face' Is Undeniable In These Pics

Amy Baier, wife of Fox News anchor Bret Baier, has gone seriously overboard on the plastic surgery trend known as Mar-a-Lago face. In recent years, the Illinois native gained overfilled lips and exaggerated cheekbones, hinting at the use of extensive filler. Both of these changes are hallmarks of the MAGA beauty trend, which many administration insiders have embraced — especially during President Donald Trump's second term.

Compared to a shot from 2014, Baier's face dramatically changed, illustrating that her makeover has gone the way of Kimberly Guilfoyle, who is unrecognizable in pictures from before her Trump days. But her conspicuous transformation is most likely by design. In fact, these days, the goal seems to be obvious cosmetic surgery. "[People] come in and actually tell me that they like the artificial look. A couple of my patients have said those exact words to me," plastic surgeon Dr. Kelly Bolden told The Guardian. "It's overdone filler and Botox that gives them that mask-face type of appearance."

Her overfilled lips are glaringly obvious

Nothing says Mar-a-Lago face quite as forcefully as overplumped lips, and Baier's look painfully strained in recent years after what looks to be significant amounts of lip filler. It's the part of her transformation that ages her the most, and chances are, she's probably not looking for tips to make sure her filler stays undetectable. Most lips tend to naturally decrease in volume with age, but Baier's are trending in the opposite direction, and the MAGA vibes are undeniable.

Her skin has an uncannily smooth look

Another hallmark of Mar-a-Lago face is taut, wrinkle-free skin that's so flawless, it practically looks airbrushed, and Amy Baier's smooth face is the perfect example. Not only are there no visible fine lines that could point to aging, but there's also no natural texture around the eyes, which one normally has due to movement. While the goal is to make skin look plump and youthful, the effect is a little unnerving since it's inhumanly perfect.

She can't resist a dramatic smoky eye

While "Mar-a-Lago face" is sometimes understood as a plastic surgery trend, it encompasses a wide range of beauty preferences. In other words, there's also a distinct makeup look, and the smoky eye — topped with some false lashes — is absolutely key to achieving it. It's another element of the MAGA beauty aesthetic that Amy Baier has fully embraced, since she's rarely photographed without dark, full-glam eye makeup and a thick set of fake eyelashes.

Her bronzer goes seriously overboard

President Donald Trump is known to rock a heavy slick of bronzer, so perhaps that's what influenced the muddy fake tan look that has come to define Mar-a-Lago face. Like so many in the MAGA cohort, Amy Baier's face has an artificial glow to it. Rather than applying it to the parts of her face that would naturally get sun-kissed, she's opted for a distinctly Trumpian all-over application. It's especially noticeable along her hairline, where a glimpse of her natural skin tone is visible.

Her sharply arched eyebrows hint at Botox

Sometimes, a byproduct of Botox is "Spock brow," when injected neurotoxins freeze the brow into an unnaturally lifted shape. Since Mar-a-Lago face inevitably involves plenty of Botox, the sharply arched brows with elevated tails are quite common among the MAGA set. One Reddit user observed that the effect resembles Disney villain Cruella de Vil. Amy Baier definitely has some signs of Spock brow. Her bold, heavily filled eyebrows are dramatically arched and raised, with the distinct "tugged back" look that Botox can create.

Her teeth look too perfect to be natural

Perfect white teeth are another key component of Mar-a-Lago face. Amy Baier's unnaturally straight teeth have the bright white and slightly oversized look of veneers. Along with Baier's oversized lips, they draw the eye straight to her mouth, and the effect is disarming. Considering that a full mouth of veneers can easily run between $12,000 and $30,000, it's perhaps one of the most obvious examples of conspicuous cosmetology that MAGA has embraced.
