With glowing skin, a top-tier wardrobe and someone we would want to be BFFs with IRL, Maya Jama is easily the best part of Love Island.

Despite her outfits being a little erm, on the pricey side(!), we were chuffed to discover some of her beauty must-haves for filming are very affordable indeed.

In fact, Maya revealed that her sultry Love Island look is all down to a drugstore mascara.

In a beauty secrets spill with The Face, Maya shared that her favourite budget-friendly beauty find is the Rimmel Scandaleyes mascara, which is currently just £4.49 on Amazon.

She raved: “It gives your lashes so much volume and length, and doesn’t dry them out either.”

The holy grail promises buildable volume and an 'ultra-smooth conditioning formula.' What’s not to love?

Plus, if it can get Maya through the rollercoaster of emotions that is Love Island…especially during a brutal Casa Amor recoupling, it must be pretty long-wearing.

Rimmel claims it delivers 'clump-free' lashes and is 'flake-proof', “smudge-proof” and easy to remove.

One reviewer wrote, "I don't have long lashes and I have tried so many mascaras. Even the high-end ones. This is just as good and a fifth of the price. It adds volume and I have sensitive eyes and find the Rimmel ones to never irritate or smudge."

Is this the only cheap-as-chips beauty buy up Maya’s sleeve? No, no, it is not!

The presenter ensures she looks wide awake with “three layers of Rimmel’s Lasting Radiance Concealer”.

Planning on jetting off to live your very own villa fantasy? Maya also is a huge fan of the Avène SPF, stating: “It’s trusty, gets the job done and doesn’t leave residue.”

It looks like a spot of retail therapy is calling us - especially if it means we can look as good as our favourite Love Island bombshell. *add to cart*.
