SIX PICKS Amaya Papaya

Ever wonder what your favorite celebrities buy when they’re browsing their favorite boutique or shopping online late at night? Welcome to Six Picks, where we ask stars to spill their style and beauty must-haves so you can shop like you’re famous, too.

Amaya “Papaya” Espinal is stopping to smell the roses. In the months since she won *Love Island USA*, the 25-year-old star has popped up at New York Fashion Week and become a bona fide beauty influencer, most recently starring in a campaign for Herbal Essences’ rose-scented haircare.

“I definitely needed to make sure my Herbal Essences shampoo and conditioner were [at the ‘Love Island’ villa],” Espinal tells *Page Six Style*. “Maybe that’s why the boys were going a little crazy!”

While she quips that her pre-date ritual typically involves “taking a shot,” she’s also a strong believer in the power of scent and self-confidence. “I dress good and I smell good for myself, not for other people,” Espinal says. “If they don’t know the prize, then that’s their loss. And I feel like everyone should have that mindset.”

Though her onscreen dating must-haves also included press-on nails that “producers were nice enough to go out and buy,” these days Espinal’s not limited to the contents of her suitcase. Below, shop some of her ultimate beauty favorites — from tear-proof setting spray to an “iconic” lip-plumping gloss.

**Maybelline Colossal Bubble Mascara**
“Very iconic, especially in the villa. [I] do love that mascara. It’s light, but it does enough for your eyes.”

**Too Faced Kissing Jelly Gloss**
“Listen, baby, that gloss makes sure your lip gloss is popping.”

**Herbal Essences Rose Hips Shampoo and Conditioner**
“Growing up, Herbal Essences had been my only [brand] to go to [for] shampoo and conditioner. I just always loved it especially since not only is it beneficial for your hair (and makes your hair so smooth), but baby, the scents!”

**MAC Multitasking Setting Spray**
“I’m just an OG girl for Mac, especially the setting spray. Especially with me being a sensitive gangster, we need to set and make sure there’s no mascara running.”

**Garnier SkinActive Micellar Cleansing Water**
“You always need a good makeup remover in your go-to makeup kit. It definitely makes sure that my face is fresh and feels good after a long day.”

**Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Plumpgasm Lip Gloss**
“It’s just iconic.”
