To start, I knew I needed a Barbie-worthy tan. As soon as the first images of Gosling as Ken, wearing double denim, were released, fans went wild for his glow-up. The self-tanning brand Isle of Paradise was responsible for the looks on set, so, of course, I needed to get this exact faux glow. Using the Isle of Paradise Medium Self-Tanning Water (£22), with the help of a spray-tan artist who had me stretching, bending, and reaching over to get into every nook and cranny (Barbie has no streaks, you know), half the bottle was used to achieve the subtle tan.
You can re-create it at home by following the brand's five steps:
Exfoliate the day before.
Moisturise elbows, ankles, and any other dry areas.
Mist the skin until totally saturated, leaving hands and feet until last.
Blend in sweeping motions with a tanning mitt or brush.
Thoroughly wash palms and wait between four and six hours for your tan to fully develop.
