This season's Love Island? It’s been a must-watch through and through – especially when it comes to those villa ‘GRWM’ dressing room scenes which always act as a sure source of beauty inspiration. Whether it’s the beauty editor approved Charlotte Tilbury product that Rosie snuck into the villa or the viral £22 perfume that Samie spritzes before bed, if it’s coveted by the Love Island girls – it’s coveted by the masses too.
And while the latest series has sadly finished (with Kai and Sanam being crowned the worthy winners) the good news is that it’s not the last we’ll hear from our favourite Love Island ladies. Past contestants like Tasha Ghouri, Millie Courtand Molly- Mae have gone on to become bona fide beauty influencers in their own right, racking up millions of make-up obsessed followers in the process.
Gemma Owen, winner of season eight, is having a moment right now - and we’re gleaning all her beauty tips and tricks in the process. From the HD brow treatment behind her famously full arches, to the £5 eyeshadow palette she swears by for date night, if Gemma’s got it, we’re always keen to follow suit.
Just days ago, the star took to Instagram to reveal her latest beauty look – think a bronzed base, expertly sculpted brows, nude lips and a smoky eye - all completed with a dramatic false lash that left followers and fellow ex-Islanders Antigoni and Sophie Piper commenting ‘beautiful’ and ‘😍😍😍' respectively.
The make-up artist responsible for the look is Chloe Winter – an MUA whose signature style is full-coverage glamour. Eagle eyed fans of Chloe will notice that she regularly shares full product breakdowns of her clients looks – often reaching for a certain lash brand in the process.
The brand is question? Tatti Lashes. And, while we’re not entirely certain that Tatti Lashes are behind Gemma’s look, an educated guess and a quick product-to-picture comparison points to their Wispy Volume Russian Strip Lashes, £8.95. In one speedy application, these lashes ensure a dramatic, eye-framing finish with minimal effort – and without the salon price tag.
