Olivia Attwood’s £7 purchase to draw freckles, despite shooting to laser them off

Honoring her natural beauty has been an easy progression for Olivia Attwood over the past year.

And part of that involves drawing freckles on her face… since she “paid a fortune” to have them all lasered off a few years ago.

When 33-year-old Olivia appeared on the third season of Love Island in 2017, the 33-year-old’s forehead and cheeks were covered in freckles.

They were a striking part of her appearance.

So much so that her then-boyfriend (fellow Villa alum Chris Hughes) even said, “Your freckles are one of my favorite sights.”

But after wiping them off with an intense laser in 2023, Olivia has now resorted to putting them back on one by one.

The Bad Boyfriends host addressed the “hilarious irony” of her beauty dilemma via TikTok.

“I paid a fortune to have almost all of my freckles lasered off with PhotoFabulous,” she said.

PhotoFabulous uses a combination of intense pulse light and a non-ablative laser to remove unwanted pigmentation from the face.

Olivia had the treatment performed at Dr. Skin Doctor’s clinic. Saleena Zimri in Manchester ahead of her lavish wedding to footballer Bradley Dack in June 2023.

She even filmed herself getting the painful beauty treatment for her ITV show, Olivia Marries Her Match.

But now that she misses her freckles and is looking for a more natural look, she has resorted to drawing fake freckles on her face with an eyebrow pencil.

“I’ll just put them back on,” Olivia admitted.

“I just make small, circular movements.”

The exact make-up product she uses is the Max Factor Brow Shaper pencil – and it’s currently on sale at Boots for £7.19.

According to the Skin Doctor website, Olivia’s PhotoFabulous treatment costs anywhere from £400 per session.

And normally it takes three to five sessions to actually give you a flawless face.

Fans were shocked by Olivia’s revelation.

“Freckles lasered off? Can we do that now?” Gee Race responded under her TikTok video.

“You look so beautiful with and without freckles,” wrote another.
