In a new Instagram post, she shared photos of herself adjusting her hair while preparing to do an interview.

“Why would you post this. It’s not important. Nobody cares,” one top commenter wrote.

“Turns out this is not what you really look like lol,” another reads.

“Your injector is part of the resistance ????????????,” another commenter wrote.

“Karoline is a beautiful person and truly one of the most incredible people you will meet in politics, and she is doing an extraordinary job serving the American people as the White House Press Secretary,” she continued.
