Ella Thomas may be best known for starring in Love Island season 10, alongside ex-boyfriend Tyrique Hyde, but the 23-year-old is definitely one to watch. Just months after leaving the villa, Ella secured the ultimate bag - a shiny PLT deal - and now is a regular face on the red carpet, as well as sharing her new-found 'boujee' life with her 980k Instagram followers.
If like us, you're obsessed with all things Love Island, you'd do anything to snoop around this year's Casa Amor villa. Luckily for us, Ella took a tour with Boots to show us some behind-the-scenes, before spotting one of her all-time favourite moisturisers.
Ella shared how she was introduced to the Weleda Skin Food Moisturiser, £8.95 during her time in the Love Island villa and it's so good, that it's now become one of her everyday essentials.
The star said, whilst holding the affordable cream, "I've been using it every day since, it's literally my everyday moisturiser!"
We can agree that this moisturiser is a dream for those looking for super glowing skin so it's no surprise Ella loves it in her daily routine. The moisturiser is beauty's worst-kept secret and everyone from Olivia Attwood to Molly-Mae Hague swears by the green tube of goodness.
This isn't the first time Ella waxed lyrical about Weleda Skin Food. Last year, during a Q&A on her Instagram page, Ella replied to a fan's question, 'Your skin is flawless! Please share your skincare routine and products.'
Ella replied holding a bottle of an empty Weleda Skin Food Light with the caption, 'My favvv moisturiser as you can see I've rinsed it lol. I get it from Boots [sic]'.

Despite its affordable price tag, Weleda Skin Food is a massive hit with celebrities, with everyone from Molly-Mae Hague to MAFS UK's Adrienne Naylor swearing by the age-old classic.
In fact, Love Island alumni, Mary Bedford previously shared how using Weleda Skin Food as a primer was a secret she learned from make-up artists whilst modelling for Boohoo.
Mary revealed, "This is so hydrating, nearly everywhere I work [as a model] uses this on me, it must be the best thing to use."
Then the plot thickens as it turns out Mary pretty much #influenced the entire season 7 villa into using Weleda Skin Food including Chloe Burrows who said: "Well, Mary actually got me into this on Love Island. It's the Weleda Skin Food and it's bloody brilliant."
Ella Thomas is a big fan of the light version, which is great for anyone with oilier skin or who doesn't enjoy using thick creams, but still wants a hunky dose of hydration on a budget.
Weleda Skin Food Light is free from synthetic preservatives, fragrances, and colourants and can be used on the face or body. If you want that really dewy effect with your make-up, it's the perfect primer - simply apply it as your final skincare step.
If it's good enough for Ella (and the rest of the Love Island clan) then it's good enough for us.
