Love Island's Sophie Piper was enlisted to help a beauty store open its new expanded shop at Kent’s largest shopping centre.
Sophie, 25, was asked to officially open the new, larger Superdrug store at Bluewater, near Dartford and was pictured getting her nails done while donning a bucket hat in-store.
The store has moved location to premises that are twice as big.
Superdrug’s move has created 18 new jobs and forms part of the retailer’s continued plan to open 25 new stores this year to add to its existing 790 branches as it celebrates its 60th year on the British high street.
The new store features a beauty studio where customers will have access to threading, waxing and manicure services, as well as a free nail health check.
New nurses services are also offered in store, such as travel vaccinations and advice, shingles, chickenpox and other vaccinations as well as health testing and checks.
Sophie, a former medical assistant, rose to fame as an islander on the sixth series of the ITV2 show, which aired in 2020.
She returned to our screens to appear on the Love Island All Stars show earlier this year, where she was placed third after a relationship with Josh Ritchie, and now works as a model.
The new store is at Unit L086 in the Bluewater Shopping Centre.
It is open Monday to Saturday: 9am to 9pm, and Sunday 11am to 5pm.
