Samie Elishi influenced Love Island fans throughout her time on the show with her array of gorgeous outfits, and now the star is influencing us with her go-to makeup products - and Meghan Markle is also a fan of the cult favourite beauty buy. 

The Love Island bombshell took to Instagram to reveal her secret for a flawless complexion - the Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation. Retailing at £45, the celeb-approved foundation is available in up to 40 shades, and Kim Kardashian is a fan, too.

According to Rinery 29, Meghan's former makeup artist Lydia Sellers previously unveiled the royal's favourite beauty buys. Lydia shared how she would use the Armani foundation on Meghan to give a natural finish that allowed her freckles to show through.

The makeup artist explained that she would use a Beauty Blender to apply the foundation, as "it's really easy to sheer out". Lydia added: "It was more about the amount of product that went on her skin and keeping it really fresh and dewy, rather than caking it on." 

The Armani foundation has received impressive reviews from shoppers, with many praising its lightweight feel and glowy finish, thanks to its light-reflective technology. 

One satisfied customer wrote: "This foundation will change your life. This is my go-to foundation and is perfect for anyone looking for a dewy, natural-looking finish! I have never used a foundation like this before. It lasts all day without touch-ups, and it does not settle into fine lines at all."

Samie revealed her go-to makeup products as she took to Instagram to share a reel of herself getting ready. The 23-year-old captioned the post: "My first ever makeup reel!! So many of you asked for my go-to makeup look coming out of the villa so here you go! What do you all want to see next."
