From Y2K-inspired flower clips worn by Jess White to Nicole Samuel forever topping up her base with a cult Maybelline product, we are unashamedly living for the tricks, trends and general inspo from this year's Love Island.

One burning question we've had since day three: what is responsible for bombshell Uma Jammeh's gorgeously glowy skin?

We've been watching each episode like a true detective to try and decipher her beauty routine and finally spotted the goods - Weleda Skin Food.

Weleda Skin Food was spotted next to Uma and Grace Jackson as they were getting ready at the Casa Amor sleepover and we were not surprised one teeny bit.

If you're new here - Weleda's Skin Food is CULT in Love Island Land, with dozens of Islanders from previous seasons swearing by the affordable green tube for delivering a lit-within glow to the skin, especially when used as a primer before make-up.

Mary Bedford learned the Weleda Skin Food hack during her days modelling for Boohoo and influenced the entire season 7 of its glow-inducing powers. Co-star, Chloe Burrows said in a video, "Well, Mary actually got me into this on Love Island. It's the Weleda Skin Food and it's bloody brilliant."

Love Island All Star winner, Molly Smith uses Weleda Skin Food as a balmy base before going in with her trusty Too Faced Born This Way Foundation.

Molly-Mae Hague is also a fan who said in a YouTube video, "My make-up artist Holly always uses this on me."

Other Islanders who have spoken about their love for Weleda Skin Food include Olivia Attwood, Ella Thomas, Kaz Kamwi, Sophie Piper, Faye Winter and Liberty Poole.

Basically, if we had a pound for every Love Island star who has sworn by Weleda Skin Food, we'd easily have enough dosh for a very nice dinner and a glass of fizz.

As well as working as an excellent primer, Weleda Skin Food can also be used as a thick nighttime moisturiser, as well as a multi-use balm for everything from lips to dry knees. Consider us sold.
