Did you know that Love Island stars get a full skin consultation before entering the villa? Neither did we until Boots – Love Island’s beauty and skincare partner – let us in on the secret this week. Each Islander is treated to a skin scan with the No7 Pro Derm Scan device before they appear on TV (read more on that here), to ensure they have their skin in tip-top condition and the bathroom stocked with all the skincare they need.
Do Love Islanders get to keep the phones they use in the villa?
07.06.2022 - 11:15 / ok.co.uk
It's no secret that Love Island contestants have their phones taken off them as soon as they head to Mallorca, and while in the villa they have no contact at all with the outside world. However, they are given a different phone to use during their stay in the iconic villa, which is most often used for producers to be able to contact them.
While Love Islanders can't scroll through Instagram or see what's happening in the news, they can text each other and receive messages from producers when there's about to be a plot twist - usually a recoupling or dumping.

Their new devices have special software installed on them which means they cannot make calls or texts to the outside world, or connect to the wifi in the villa. They can text each other, and in previous years contestants have started up a group chat to make sure they can all stay up to date with the latest drama.
Love Islanders are also told to keep their phones on them at all times, so that bosses can drop a text on any person at any time, helping to keep the drama going. The phones are also used by the Islanders to snap pictures of them and their new pals while in the villa, and the photos are often used on ITV and Love Island's social media accounts.
However, one thing which is uncertain is whether contestants get to keep their Love Island phones once they leave the villa. While we know they get to hold onto their personalised water bottles, suitcases and other items, it hasn't yet been revealed
