With her iconic blonde blowout and signature pink pout, nobody does beauty like Barbie.
In a modern world full of famous faces and living legends, who would’ve thought that one of the beauty industry’s ultimate influencers would be a 12-inch doll? Since her debut in 1959, Barbie has served as a beauty icon and an inspiration to millions — with countless cosmetics collaborations to show for it. And when she’s not starring in beauty campaigns, she’s lent her good looks to celebrities like Beyoncé for Halloween costumes, and Kacey Musgraves for the Camp-themed Met Gala in 2019.
She is the moment. And this summer, she’s giving our makeup bags a Barbiecore makeover. Ahead of the release of Greta Gerwig’s mega-hyped Barbie film starring Margot Robbie, some of our favourite beauty brands have collaborated once more with the blonde beauty icon to release hot pink collections of makeup, skincare, hair accessories and more, to ensure we’re all living our best Barbie lives this summer.

If Barbie were real, we’re willing to bet we’d find this CHI x Barbie flat iron on her vanity (even if she’d literally never need to use it). As for the rest of us, we’ll be using this ceramic flat iron to straighten our hair to sleek perfection. Though the full CHI collection is not currently available for Canadian shoppers, all hope is not lost! You can still snag this hot tool on the Urban Outfitters website.

You may not have had a Barbie toothbrush since your childhood, but if there was ever a time to start using one again, it’d be right now. If you’re not convinced by sheer nostalgia, perhaps the 5 sonic cleaning modes and tapered bristles within this electric toothbrush by Moon will. What’s more, you can pair it with the brand’s newly launched pink Bubble Mint Whitening Toothpaste. Pink oral care and pearly whites? What’s not to love?
