TX-SEN: Ted Cruz's Senate Campaign Has Spent Thousands At Beauty Spas

[RandySF]

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) has spent thousands of dollars from his campaign account at beauty spas over the years, potentially breaking rules against personal use of campaign funds.

Paperwork filed with the Federal Election Commission from 2016 through October, reviewed by HuffPost, shows the Ted Cruz for Senate campaign committee has spent more than $9,000 at salons.

It’s not clear if the expenses were for the candidate, who doesn’t appear to wear makeup or maintain an expensive haircut, or for someone else. Cruz’s wife, Heidi Cruz, has acted as a campaign surrogate in the past.

The most recent expenditure was $282 at Allure Day Spa in New York City on Oct. 11, between the first and second weeks of Cruz’s bus tour across Texas. It’s not clear what the money was spent on, though the most expensive package the spa advertises on its website costs $250 and provides “HydraFacial skin-renewing treatments” to “help you achieve a youthful, confident look.”
