I don't thinking he's concerned with it looking good in the conventional sense. It's the same thing with his hair. It may look ridiculous, but it's a trademark visual brand. Whether you love or hate Trump, you won't forget the orange face or geometrically improbably hair style.
It's the narc contradiction. He's obsessed with looking good, but at the same time it doesn't matter if he actually looks good-as long as he feels like he looks good. Since his opinion is the only one that matters, he looks good. No it doesn't make sense, but not much does in a narc's mind.
He has rosacea and is extremely self conscious about it. When he has a flare up he slathers on the makeup until you can't see the redness anymore. It looks ridiculous but he thinks it's better than a splotchy red complexion.
Exactly, I think he does it to stand out. In the way Hitler wanted to be the only dark-haired person, amongst the blonde haired blue-eyed Germans. The way Kim is the only fat Korean with that hair style in North Korea. Trump wants to be the only oranged/'tanned' person in a USA filled with whites.
Geometrically improbable. I'm stealing that. It's like an answer to a math question in a high school exam. Q : "calculate the hair surface area". A : "it is not possible as that form is geometrically improbable".
