If there's one thing we're obsessed with, it's Love Island and hard-working beauty recommendations. Name a better combo, seriously.

There's nothing quite like finding out the beauty products the Islanders swear by and then immediately buying the lot.

During Love Island 2018 we were all raving about Megan Barton Hanson and her incredible red lipstick.

Series seven had us gripped with Faye Winter and her infamous brown lipstick.

And as of Love Island 2024, we've been obsessed with the £12 lip balm Mimii Ngulube swore by in the villa and Jessica Spencer's slick back bun.

Sorry, but that clip of Mimii asleep next to her lip balm is simply iconic and #relatable because let's be honest, we're all living the same lives at this point. We need to look hydrated at all times, it's as simple as that.

Anyway, when Jessica and Ayo Odukoya popped into heat Towers we had to ask about her slick back bun and how she gets it looking so sleek because we need it, especially during this heatwave.

"I use Gummy Wax and it smells like watermelon," Jess revealed. "It's so good."

Not only does Jess use the £5.99 Gummy Wax but she also revealed the brush she swears by.

"I use a little Cantu slick brush."

Jess also revealed her favourite make-up products that she used in the villa and we already know what we're spending our next paycheck on.

"My favourite makeup products to use in the villa would probably be the Made By Mitchell blush in Sweet Cheeks, I love pigmented blush," she told us.

"Huda Beauty's setting in powders, I loved the Urban Decay setting spray and I love the NARS concealers and the Too Faced concealers as well."

Thanks Jess, we're not counting down the days until payday so we can look something like you (well, at least try to...)
