Love Island’s Megan is using this budget lipstick to get the perfect pout

Love her or loathe her...

We finally know.

Love her or absolute loathe her, you can’t deny that you’ve been a little bit curious about Megan’s beauty regime.

The villa troublemaker is known for her big hair (for all the secrets) and that bold lip, and regardless of what shit she’s pulled on the show, we’ve been dying to know what she’s been using.

Well, we finally have the answers we crave.


Turns out, Muggy Megan has a couple of favourites but they’re both very affordable.

For that intense deep red lip that the model often wears in the evenings, it’s been revealed that Megan is, in fact, wearing Rimmel’s Stay Matter Liquid Lipstick in the shade Fire Starter.

On sale for just €7.99, it’s definitely a budget buy.

Another one of Meg’s favourites is another Rimmel product, but this time it’s the Provocalips, and she goes for shade 420 for a softer red lip. At a slightly higher price tag at €8.99, both products fall under a three-for-two deal in Boots on the regular.

At that rate, it’s worth purchasing both just to experiment with Megan’s fave lippies.

It was revealed last week that Megan has sparked a HUGE rise in the number of bookings for lip fillers in many Irish clinics.

There has reportedly been a 200 per cent surge in bookings for lip fillers across SISU Clinics, a chain of physician-led aesthetic clinics in Dublin, Cork and Killarney.

And, according to a spokesperson for the clinic, more than 35 per cent of the bookings are by men who are looking to get botox – a 5 per cent increase in SISU’s steady male patient base.

SISU CEO Pat Phelan said:

“Pop culture personalities tend to pique interest in certain treatments, but the Love Island phenomenon is on a whole new level. The increase in patients booking off the back of the show is astonishing.

“Women of all ages are looking for that Megan Barton-Hanson look – full lips, smooth skin, perfect nose.

“Men are impressed by the male contestants, so they are also driving SISU’s bookings with male patients.”
