Brace yourself, Love Island series 11 is here. Hot off the heels of the franchise's hit international all-stars series, Love Island Games which aired on US screens in November 2023, beauty queen Maya Jama (and her jaw-dropping outfits) has returned as host alongside 12 new Love Island hopefuls who are in search of romance. But the thing we are most excited about? That infamous dressing room.
Arguably the heart of the villa – where everything from serious glam to secrets and plot twists unravel in equal measure – the dressing room is packed with beauty products and, luckily, we know exactly what they are.
Boots is back for another season as the official beauty partner of the show, so you can rest assured knowing only the best of beauty will reside in the villa, helping the Love Island hopefuls to look and feel their best.
Peter Markey, chief marketing officer at Boots said, 'We're thrilled to be returning as the official beauty partner for Love Island for the sixth series in a row. We know how much viewers love seeing the latest beauty brands in the villa, so we've made sure we have an incredible line-up for the Islanders to enjoy and experiment with this summer. Expect to see some exciting deals as part of this year’s partnership that will make villa favourites more accessible than ever before, so shoppers can recreate the Love Island look for themselves at home.'
We have already spotted a restock of former gems used in previous series, including the £22 body mist Samie Elishi wore before bed, as well as some impressive beauty updates. Keen to know which other products made the cut? Keep scrolling.
