From glowy foundations to handy fridge organisers to the £6 hair serum she applies every single day without fail, we find ourselves forever #influenced by the Love Island star.
Since taking to the Strictly dancefloor, we're just as obsessed with Zara and her flawless make-up. Recently she took to her Insta story to answer some burning questions sent in from her followers. As she revealed her everyday make-up essentials, we spotted Zara raving about L’Oréal's Paradise Mascara to get her luscious lashes looking camera-ready.

Enriched with castor oil this must-have mascara nourishes the lashes as it lengthens to give a fuller, false lash look. Need we say more? Keep scrolling to pick up this mascara now available for £8.

Finding a hero SPF that doesn't 1) pill under make-up 2) leave a dreaded white cast or 3) cost more than a family food shop to Waitrose. Despite the formula being both 'lightweight' and 'non-greasy' it boasts a factor 50 protection and will set you back just £9.99. Enter, the L'Oréal Revitalift Clinical Vitamin C SPF 50+ Daily Anti-UV Fluid which has already amassed hundreds of five-star reviews despite it being a new beauty launch.
Sharing all in a dedicated TikTok ad, Zara firstly shared her love for another product in the range - the TikTok-viral L'Oreal's Revitalift Clinical 12% Pure Vitamin C Serum - and told fans that not only does she swear by using vitamin C serums daily, but it can also help ward off signs of premature ageing.

Then the star gets on to the hardworking factor 50 cream. "Did you know that 80% of ageing is caused by UV rays? That's why it's so important we wear our SPF."
Zara continued, "I love this one from L'Oreal because it's lightweight, it's not oily, it's not greasy, and it sits perfect on my sensitive skin. These products are my holiday essentials."
She hilariously concludes: 'You know when it's good when even your boyfriend starts stealing it!"
