63. Let me cure that: she used her 7 year old son to sell her caviar-based moisturizer

Melania Trump is famous for her glamorous lifestyle, and she's passed down her luxurious predilections to her son Barron, 7.

"He's not a sweatpants child," says Trump, 42, of her only child with her husband of eight years, Donald Trump, 66. "He doesn't mind putting on (a suit)-but not every day- and he likes to dress up in a tie sometimes like Daddy."

Trump tells ABC News that in addition to dressing her son nicely, she makes sure that he takes care of his skin, slathering him in her eponymous Caviar Complex C6 moisturizer after his nightly bath.

"It smells very, very fresh," says the businesswoman, who launched the skincare line this week at Lord & Taylor. "I put it on him from head to toe. He likes it!"

Anyone who uses a child like that for a bit of personal fame (on a complete waste-of-money topic) deserves some public humiliation.

Caviar based moisturizer. How creepy. It's ostentation that is trying too hard to be ostentatious. Squinch Jul 2016 #74

I was going to complain it cost $150 a pot, but then I found a similar product for $300 muriel_volestrangler Jul 2016 #109

When she finds out, she'll raise the price. No sense NOT being the most wasteful, if the purpose of Squinch Jul 2016 #111
