'Doing Botox on myself was awful'

Love Island star Jess L Harding has revealed she administered her own I Botox injections before she headed to the villa - to make sure she was wrinkle-free on TV.

The beautician, who is just 22, has been having Botox and fillers since she was only 18 and runs her own west London cosmetic procedure company, Candy Aesthetics, where she also offers fat-dissolving treatments and Brazilian bum lifts.

Often her beautician friends help each other out by doing each other's jabs. But ahead of Love Island, Jess took matters into her own hands.

"The other day I did do my own Botox because no one was available," admitted Jess.

"It was horrible but I had to do it, you can't have wrinkles on telly." While she regularly has cosmetic enhancements, Jess insisted it's "nothing extreme".

"I do have a little bit of Botox and filler," she explained. "I just got it because when it's your job it's quite easy to just say, 'Go on then.' A lot of the practitioners work together. I've had so many of my practitioner friends come to me, like, 'Babe, can you just put it in my face?" To us it's nothing, and people are spending hundreds and thousands. It's easily influenced but I'm quite scared of needles, considering it's my job."

She might be insecure about her wrinkles, but Jess is very confident in her bikinis and wants other girls to feel proud if they've got "boobs and a bum".

"I'm body confident. I'm not a size skinny 6," said Jess. "I've got boobs and a bum. I've got curves. It'll be nice to show the outside world that it's OK to be curvy."

Armed with her tweakments, Jess wasn't worried about wearing make-up in the villa all the time. "I'm fine waking up next to a man with no make-up on," she said. "I never wear make-up, even to work, as long as I've got some sort of lash on and my eyebrows done, I'll be fine."
