The £5.50 Boots buy that Love Island Ruchee uses to hold brows in place all day

When being filmed almost 24/7 in the Love Island villa, the girls have been turning to Boots beauty products in order to make sure they slay all day long. And in last night’s episode, Ruchee was clocked using an affordable gel that locks brows and baby hairs in place ‘all day’.

While getting ready to see who bombshell Islander Zachariah would choose to couple up with, the beautician was seen combing a spoolie through her brows and setting them in place with the gel.

In her left hand was the bright yellow corresponding tube, which was a dead giveaway for it being the got2b Glued 4 Brows & Edges 2in1 Gel.

The got2b Glued 4 Brows & Edges 2in1 Gel is a relatively new innovative styling gel which launched in 2022, and is designed to make sure that your brows and edges stay in shape all day long.

The invisible gel formula is vegan and free of silicones, and offers ‘super strong hold for up to 72 hours’ - so there’s no wonder it’s been a go-to for the 24-year-old as she hopes to turn heads in the villa.

Usually £5.50, the affordable beauty buy currently has a multibuy offer on the high street retailer’s site, where you can get two for £8 with the code GOT2B , making them just £4 each. It rivals the likes of the NYX The Brow Glue instant styler, which is £7.99 - which only holds for ‘16 hours’.

The gel is said to be ‘fast drying with no flakes and without stickiness or residue’, with a versatile two-sided fibre brush allowing for easy and precise application and styling.

Those looking to lock down their brows and baby hairs can use the raised side of the brush to apply the product on your brows and hair around your hairline, and the flat side to style and fix brows and edges into place.

It brings all of the staying power as the got2B Glued hairspray, with shoppers rating it 4.1 stars out of five based on 66 reviews , more than half of which are five stars.

One said it was the “best brow glue I’ve used”, with another saying it “holds brow hairs and edges down all day”.

Meanwhile some users say it’s even better than paying to have them professionally laminated, which is a treatment that needs re-doing ever eight weeks and can soon prove costly. One wrote: “Like glue. I go over the hairs lightly at first to get preferred shape and then go over again and press down to get the laminated effect.”

“Better than getting brows laminated,” another commented.

Some complained that while it was “really really good at fixing my hair and brows in place all day”, when it dries it “can go white sometimes”. But others have said that there’s a knack to applying - and the trick is not to use too much.

A helpful shopper said: “Bought this for taming my fly away hairs that I’m suffering with due to postpartum hair loss. Really good hold like the rest of the range but one thing I did notice was that if you don’t apply it properly you can be left with white clumpy/flaky bits along the hairline.

“Once you’ve got the knack of applying it right it’s a great product. Also love how versatile it is, can be used for brows as well, so great if you want to just make yourself look a bit more put together.”

Boots is once again the exclusive official beauty partner of Love Island, supplying the contestants with everything they need to look glam and feel great on the show. In Monday’s episode, we spotted Molly Marsh using the MAC Stack Mascara worth £26 , and can expect to see more trending beauty buys to emerge as the series continues.

You can shop the got2b Glued 4 Brows & Edges 2in1 Gel on the Boots website here, or shop all the products used throughout the show here on boots.com
