I'm A Celebrity 2017 winner Georgia 'Toff' Toffolo has revealed why she was allowed to take make-up into the jungle.
Early on in the show, viewers at home noticed that the Made In Chelsea star appeared to be wearing foundation, which has always been banned in camp.
The 22-year-old has now admitted she refused to appear on the show if she wasn't allowed it to cover her spots.

She shared: “When producers told me it was banned I broke down in tears and said, ‘I can’t do this.'"
Toff continued: "It’s a medical problem and I’ve been on strong tablets for six months trying to get rid of them. So show bosses agreed that, because it was a medical problem, I was allowed to put foundation on once a day in the morning.

“I wish I could walk around with no make-up on but I have big angry red marks all down the side of my cheeks. Some people don’t understand how badly it affects my confidence and upsets me.”
However, she added to The Sun that her jungle diet and break from bad food has done wonders for her skin and will now get allergy tests done.

Over the weekend Toff became the third female to win the series in a row – following Scarlett Moffat and Vicky Pattison – and beat third-placed Radio DJ Iain Lee and soap actor Jamie Lomas in the final.
After being announced as the winner she stood open mouthed for 30 seconds unable to speak.
She said: “I don't know what to say, obviously I am shocked I didn't think anyone would like me. “I am really taken aback, it is really overwhelming. Wow. Is this real?
“It is a dream, I have watched this since I was a little girl.”
