Celebs Go Dating Dating is back for series 13 and we'd argue that this year's cast is easily the best yet. From Love Island's Chris Taylor continuing his 'unlucky in love' arc (soz) to MAFS UK's Ella Morgan and Gogglebox Stephen Webb's iconic friendship, we are unashamedly obsessed with the channel 4 dating show.
Another surprise favourite from the cast is Corrie actress turned self-proclaimed MILF, Helen Flanagan who is getting stuck into her dates like a trooper and manages to look incredible in the process. Those House of CB dresses? That blow dry? That impeccable beauty look? Helen, babes, we are in awe.
Luckily, the soap actress shared all her beauty favourites in a dedicated Instagram reel while shooting Celebs Go Dating, so you can bet these are the exact products she also relied on for her TV glam.
For her base, the 34-year-old uses the celeb-approved Bobby Brown Face Base, £45 to prime her skin and for her eyes, Helen uses the affordable and hydrating Avene Eye Contour Cream, £10.20 for the perfect pre-concealer prep.

For achieving her undeniably flawless skin, Helen uses the NARS Sheer Glow Foundation, £30.40 followed by Trinny London's concealer in shade Bambi, £28 before setting it in place with the cult Laura Mercier Setting Powder, £30.80.
Her signature nude lip combo is the Charlotte Tilbury Lip Liner in Iconic Nude, £16 followed by the Charlotte Tilbury lipstick in shade Wedding Belles, £24. The ultimate hue to manifest love, amirite?
Though Helen clearly favours high-end beauty products, she did achieve extra fluttery lashes thanks to the L'Oreal Paris Telescopic Mascara which is currently £7.60 on Amazon.
The ultra-lengthening mascara is a cult classic and is loved many celebs including Rochelle Humes, Molly Smith, EastEnder's Molly Rainford and TOWIE's Clelia Theodorou.
The mascara went TikTok-viral on launch and has since recieved hundreds of five star reviews with customers loving it for giving a 'false lash effect.' Another reviewer shared how it's great for transforming 'short and stumpy lashes'.
If it's good enough for Helen (and practically the rest of Celebsville), then sign us up.
