Ekin-Su gave her summer tips
2
She was in town for the launch of Beauty Playground
She was there to talk about her collaboration with make-up brand BPerfect, which is part of the chemist chain's new concept.
But she revealed one of her top tips for summer is using a cheap and cheerful, off-the-shelf product.
Ekin-Su said: "Hygiene is important in summer, making sure you clean your face well. And you don't have to use expensive products, soap is fine - like the Dove Cream Bar."
You can pick up a four-pack of the soap at Superdrug for £3.25, making a bar just 81p.
The brand boasts that it doesn't strip the skin of essential nutrients, like normal soap, and instead is packed with moisturising ingredients that helps nourish skin.
Ekin-Su, 30, also said that SPF is a must and insists she's been slapping on a high factor since she was in her 30s.
The star said: "I use factor 50. You need to use an SPF every day, no matter what the weather is like."
When it comes to BPerfect, the reality star has some favourites for the sunny months.
Her top product for the summer is the Radiant Glow Skin Perfector.
The award-winning make-up staple can be used as a primer, combined with mosituriser, used as a highlighter or used by itself to give a healthy, sunshine glow.

Meanwhile, she swears by her multi-purpose face and eye palette which has three multi-use face powders and four velvet matte eyeshadows - ideal for chucking in a travel bag.
Ekin-Su was delighted to support Superdrug's new Beauty Playground as it launched in the Braehead store earlier this week.
Introduced first in London's Westfield Stratford store, it brings some of the most sought-after, viral and exciting up-and-coming brands that have previously only been available online, into the shop.
And it means customers can smell, try and fall in love with some amazing lines, such as Dhelicious and Mallows Beauty.
Even Gen Alpha beauty fans can pick up a bargain, with the Daise range starting from £2.50 for a pretty flower lip balm.
As well as exploring must-have brands, shoppers will also be able to access beauty services, receive expert advice and create content while they shop.

JoJo Siwa's ex Kath Ebbs confirms new relationship with subtle dig at star after getting dumped for Chris Hughes
The pair dated for around four months before breaking up in April FORMER FLAME JoJo Siwa's ex Kath Ebbs confirms new relationship with subtle dig at star after getting dumped for Chris Hughes Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) KATH Ebbs has gone Instagram official with their new beau a few months after being publicly dumped by American pop star, JoJo Siwa. They are dating Australian Rules footballer, Tilly Lucas-Rodd, 29, and seem completely loved up in their recent social media snaps. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 5 Kath confirmed their new relationship with Tilly Lucas-Rodd on Instagram 5 They have been open about how much the public nature of the split with JoJo impacted their mental health Credit: kathebbs/Instagram 'The rumours are true! YES I still (stupidly) believe in love!!!', Kath captioned the post of four black and white photo booth style images, kissing and cuddling with Tilly. Fans were quick to congratulate Kate, though the seemingly subtle dig towards the JoJo drama in the caption where Kate said 'stupidly' didn't appear to go unnoticed. 'Happy for you both, just glad to see you happy,' one fan wrote. A second boldly added: 'Upgradeeeeeeeee'. A third chimed in: 'The happy ending you deserve (and we all wanted!). The Australian content creator dated the former Dance Moms celeb for a short period of time before JoJo called it quits, leading Kath to admit they were in a 'dark place' due to the breakup. It's strongly suggested that the sudden break up came after JoJo started to catch feelings for former Love Island contestant, Chris Hughes. Chris, 32, and JoJo, 22, were contestants on Celebrity Big Brother UK at the same time earlier in the year. Their close on-screen bond sparked speculation of cheating, but both JoJo and Kate have publicly stated that cheating played no part in their decision to part ways. Chris and JoJo were close, but only made their relationship official in June. Shortly beforehand JoJo made it clear to the public that they identified as "queer, not lesbian". JoJo Siwa reveals exact moment she knew she 'wasn't happy' with ex Kath Ebbs before dumping them at wrap party JoJo reportedly told Kath, 27, at the Celebrity Big Brother UK wrap party when they were exiting the house that they no longer wanted to be in the relationship because their feelings had changed. Kath had flown to the UK specifically to celebrate at the party with JoJo, so they were very much caught off guard by the news. 5 JoJo and Chris are now very public about how in love they are with each other Credit: Instagram 5 The pair frequently post affectionate photos together online Credit: Instagram/Chris Hughes

‘Nobody wants this!' scream Love Island fans as controversial challenge returns and viewers threaten to ‘switch off'
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THE iconic baby challenge is making a comeback to Love Island tonight but fans are feeling far from ready. In the coming episodes, viewers will witness the Love Islanders coupled up and doing their best to take care of a screaming baby doll. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 At the end of last night's show, it was revealed the baby challenge will be coming back 4 Olivia Attwood and Chris Hughes completed the baby challenge in 2017 during season 3 of Love Island Credit: Rex The Love Island challenge is supposed to truly test all of the sets of couples to see if they can keep their cool and successfully look after a little one. For some, the challenge will bring them closer. But others may leave thinking twice about whether they wish to have children in the future. Fans of the show are far from happy to hear the news though, taking to social media to express their disappointment in seeing the challenge return. 'We wanted the tweet challenge back!! No one cares about some f*** ass baby dolls,' said one user. A second shared: 'I actually hate the baby doll challenge. Lol this is when I stop watching'. A third agrees: 'There is nothing I hate more than the baby challenge, actively skip it everytime.' The ITV2 show made the decision to axe the baby challenge after nine seasons back in 2023 to allow space to welcome new tasks and challenges to the show. A sports day event was instead switched in place that year, and saw the Islanders competed in various athletic and silly games. At the time, fans were sad to see the baby challenge go, deeming the replacement as 'boring and dull'. One Twitter user shared: 'All I wanted was Tyrella in the baby challenge. Was that too much to ask for???'. Love Island gets over 9,000 Ofcom complaints in just a week as fuming viewers slam show But this year it seems that viewers feel the opposite way. Lasting love has been found in the villa for ex-Islanders, including Molly-Mae Hague, 26, and Tommy Fury, 26, who made it through the baby challenge in 2019. The couple, who briefly split in August last year, welcomed their first child, daughter Bambi, back in 2023. With tensions already high between many of the duos in this year's lineup, including Dejon and Meg, it's going to be interesting seeing what unfolds. Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2. 4 The Love Islanders have undertaken other challenges like balancing books on their heads, but nothing compared to this Credit: Eroteme

Leaked video of Love Islanders filming outside the villa in Mallorca ‘reveals' who gets dumped tonight, claim fans
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A LOVE Island fan has leaked a video "revealing" which couple is axed tonight. The villa faces another dumping following a public vote. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 A leaked fan video has 'revealed' that Helena and Blu will be dumped tonight Credit: Eroteme 4 Blu is missing from a new promo shoot that a fan filmed outside the Mallorca villa Credit: Eroteme 4 Blu was nowhere to be seen - leading fans to believe he and Helena have been axed Credit: Eroteme And now eagle-eyed fans are convinced they've worked out who has been eliminated after a TikTok user shared a clip of the boys filming final week promo scenes outside the Mallorca villa today. Harry, Dejon, Conor, Cash, Ty and Jamie could be seen strutting down the road as they were surrounded by camera crew. The video showed all the lads except for Blu. Fans flooded the comment section with theories that Blu and Helena, who are currently in a friendship couple, have been dumped. One wrote: "I mean I knew Blu and Helena were gonna go but thanks for confirming it." A second said: "No Blu? No Helena? We've won the war!" A third commented: "Omg that means Blu and Helena got dumped." "Can watch the episode in peace now knowing Blu has been dumped," a fourth posted. Following tonight's talent show, one Islander receives a text which reads: 'Islanders. The public have been voting for their favourite couple. The couple with the fewest votes and therefore dumped from the island is…..' Another Islander then receives another text revealing the couple. Love Island gets over 9,000 Ofcom complaints in just a week as fuming viewers slam show If Blu and Helena are dumped from the island, it won't come as a huge surprise to fans. Helena has been involved in her fair share of drama after being in a love triangle with Harry and Shakira for most of the series. Last week Harry confessed his feelings for Shakira and dumped Helena just days after going exclusive with her. Helena has also come under fire for her "mean girl" behaviour along with Meg and Megan. While Blu has also caused controversy after fans fumed over his alleged "bullying" behaviour towards Toni. Viewers flooded social media with messages of concern about his supposed "harassment" and insisted they will contact the broadcasting watchdog. Returning Love Island star Blu was axed from the matchmaking show earlier in the series, yet made a recent unexpected return alongside Megan Forte Clarke. Yet now viewer complaints have escalated to his supposed "bullying" of Toni - a claim reinforced by her mother on TikTok - and as such, they have told how they are contacting Ofcom with their worries. It came after a particularly "bitter and sarky" scene featuring the pair, which led one fan to post on X: "I'm sorry Blu is a bully! @Ofcom will be hearing from me." A second quizzed: "Why is Blu in the villa???????" as a third put: "I'm reporting Blu and Meg to Ofcom for harassment. Toni wanted nothing to do with it yet they're literally trying to force a reaction out of her for no f**king reason." Another urged: "Can people complain to Ofcom about Blu and Meg's behaviour then?" One posted: "I can't believe it. I want to make A OFCOM COMPLAINT."
