In a clip dubbed “Stephen on the Floor” that aired during Monday’s episode of _The Late Show_, the host shared his take on how to get [President Donald Trump’s](http://time.com/5359561/donald-trump-hollywood-star-removed/) look. “It’s glimmery, it’s shimmery, and it’s a fun and easy look you can take from golf to rally,” he began the YouTube channel parody. Colbert then proceeded to smear bronzer and highlighter all over his face while wearing a pair of goggles to keep the area around his eyes as white and puffy as possible. He finished his full face of makeup by using a slice of bologna to blend everything together. “I like to use Oscar Mayer chicken and pork,” he explained. “The rendered fat really seals in your highlights so now your look holds up to a sweaty, panicked denial of guilt.” Watch the full clip below. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5359762/stephen-colbert-trump-makeup-tutorial/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5359762/stephen-colbert-trump-makeup-tutorial/"},"headline":"Stephen Colbert Has a Rally-Ready 'Glimmery Shimmery' Makeup Tutorial Just for Trump","datePublished":"2018-08-07T14:55:39.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:54:12.207Z","description":"Here's how to get the \"hottest, most presidential highlights\"","url":"https://time.com/5359762/stephen-colbert-trump-makeup-tutorial/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Television","stephen colbert","TV","Late Night Television","the late show with stephen colbert"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt391d079df9a5b75d/69893732929fad7ecfbf141a/screen-shot-2018-08-07-at-10-16-03-am.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Megan McCluskey","jobTitle":"Staff Writer","url":"https://time.com/author/megan-mccluskey/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt391d079df9a5b75d/69893732929fad7ecfbf141a/screen-shot-2018-08-07-at-10-16-03-am.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Stephen-Colbert-Trump-Makeup-Tutorial","caption":"","creditText":"CBS","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5359762/stephen-colbert-trump-makeup-tutorial/","name":"Stephen Colbert Has a Rally-Ready 'Glimmery Shimmery' Makeup Tutorial Just for Trump"}}]}] ```
