Chasten Buttigieg Comes To Pete's Rescue After Interview About His Awkward Skin Care Routine Goes Viral

Running for President has kept South Bend mayor Pete Buttigieg very busy.

So busy, it seems, that he doesn't have time for the high-quality skincare we all deserve!


During Cosmopolitan's "Candidates Come to Cosmo" series, Buttigieg was asked the signature question: What is your skincare routine?

His answer was ignorant enough to give Jonathan Van Ness a stroke.

It turns out most of Buttigieg's skincare routine involves soap and aftershave.

See the full exchange here:

When Buttigieg asks if that's bad, Jessica Pels, who's interviewing him, gives him the full lowdown.

"You're supposed to moisturize. You're running a campaign for president. I'm running a campaign for getting men to moisturize."

She sent the candidate home with some moisturizers to help him in the future.

But shortly after the interview was published, Buttigieg's husband, Chasten, responded with a tweet of his own.

Chasten would follow up his initial chastening with a few other reassurances.


Twitter was grateful someone was there to make sure Buttigieg is taking care of his skin.


Reading the story made many suspect Elizabeth Warren had a skincare plan for America.

There were some Twitter users who wished the story would disappear.



Some readers felt they could empathize with Buttigieg just a little too closely for comfort.


Skincare aficionados had to try and stay calm while reading the candidate's responses.

If only we still lived in a world where this was the biggest political story to be reporting on...

Remember, Pete: listen to your husband!

You may have a plan for the country, but he's got a plan for your skin.

Awkward Typo In Elon Musk's Bizarre 'Education Department' Trump Meme Is A Total Self-Own

Billionaire Elon Musk was widely mocked after he celebrated President Donald Trump's executive order to begin to dismantle the Department of Education (DOE) by posting a meme of Trump at the department's grave, only for an awkward misspelling to get all the attention.

Polling indicates that eliminating the Education Department is largely unpopular, with 60% of registered voters opposing the move, according to a Quinnipiac University survey conducted March 6-10. Support stands at 33%, with opposition particularly strong among Democrats—98% oppose it, while just 1% support it.
