From her glossy hair to her glowing skin, Samie Elishi was beauty goals during her time in the Love Island villa.

Luckily for us, the 22-year-old reality star has taken to Instagram to share all of her holy grail products, and it turns out she’s a big fan of the skincare brand Sol de Janeiro.

You might already be well acquainted with the Brazilian Bum Bum Cream. It's a bestseller thanks to its amazing beachy scent and the nourishing formula which leaves your skin super soft. In the words of Samie: "It smells unreal and it does the job".

With notes of pistachio, salted caramel and vanilla, it’s the perfect summer scent. Plus, it also works to tighten the appearance of your skin thanks to the addition of caffeine-rich guarana.

The body cream has 15,000 five-star reviews on Amazon, with one customer writing: "This is the nicest cream I've ever used. The smell is amazing. It’s quite pricey but the smell does last. It firms my skin. Would recommend."

While another said: "If you’re looking for something light, buttery and full of that holiday summer smell, you absolutely need this in your life. I never ever moisturise because I hate the feeling of that heavy sticky creamy feel on my skin, but sweet lord, this is heaven in a pot. Spend the money, treat yourself, it is worth every penny."

The best bit? It’s just dropped in the Amazon sale with 20% off, taking the price of the 240ml tub from £46 to £36.

In her Instagram video, Samie also revealed she’s a fan of the Sol de Janeiro body sprays. "Honestly, I’m obsessed with these," she says. "I brought them into the villa myself, then we had to get more ordered in because the girls were obsessed. Before I went to bed I would spray myself with them… These are a must."

They’re available to shop on Amazon in two different scents, the original Brazilian Crush and Cheirosa, which has notes of jasmine and pink dragonfruit.
