Love Island bosses have lined up a glamorous Liverpudlian makeup artist to star in the show, MailOnline can reveal.
Lucy Quinn, 20, is the first female revealed for the upcoming season, which begins next month, with sources confirming she will enter the Mallorca villa as a bombshell once the eight-week series is underway.
The Scouse makeup artist, who regularly shares pH๏τos of her beautified clients on Instagram, is set to join the new Love Island cast this summer alongside 6ft5 personal trainer Aaron Buckett.
Host Maya Jama, 30, stars in a brand-new trailer to tease the series that marks a decade since the show was first broadcast demanding ‘bigger and bolder ideas’ from a boardroom of executives.
She says: ‘This year I want more drama, more bombshells, more break-ups, more make-ups, I want more twists, I want more twists than ever.’
As well as the summer instalment, Love Island is celebrating 10 years on screen with an anniversary special where Islanders from the past will return to share their experiences having appeared in the famous villa.

A TV source told MailOnline: ‘Lucy is single and ready to mingle. She can’t wait to enter the Love Island villa and is counting down the days until it becomes a reality.
‘She’s fiery and doesn’t take any nonsense when it comes to dating but is equally looking for the man of her dreams, hopefully all will come true for her this summer.’
Fitness fan Aaron is also confirmed for the upcoming series and as a 6ft5 personal trainer, he has a lot to offer potential daters.
A TV insider told The Sun: ‘Love Island execs are still finalising whether he’ll be in the opening line-up or as a tempting bombshell.’
ITV will be revealing the full cast of singletons next week ahead of the show’s launch with more twists than ever promised for series 12.
In the new trailer, Maya demands a fresh set of ideas from a boardroom of Love Island executives but rejects their uninspiring suggestions which include moving the show to the Isle of Wight and turning it into a musical.
The presenter, who jet to Mallorca on Monday, shared an image of six suitcases and three bags ahead of her trip to the airport.
Writing on Instagram once she landed, Maya said: ‘On holiday until I start Love Island’ as she posted videos of herself dancing.
MailOnline has approached ITV for comment.
