President Donald Trump’s bright orange skin is a frequent target for comedians, but Stephen Colbert just took it to a whole other level.

Colbert shares tips on how you too can achieve that “shiny, shimmering, nuclear” presidential glow at home. It’s not easy to recreate Trump’s iconic “reverse raccoon eyes,” but he nails it.

In related news, Snopes had to debunk a photograph last year that supposedly showed Trump getting a spray tan in the Oval Office. The photographer’s website notes that her “notorious” photos “are startlingly realistically staged affairs.”
