Isabel on …
… Being popular: "I keep asking myself 'why am I so special?'. I don't understand why I'm so blessed to have been on Home & Away."
… Her beauty routine: "I love rosehip oil as a moisturiser and Lucas' Papaw ointment as a lip balm. I just splash my face with water in the mornings and wear a moisturiser with sunscreen on it. After work I remove my make-up with cleanser and then moisturise."
… On fashion: "Be individual and wear what suits you and what you like."
… Her other talents: "I love art. I've always loved creative arts — all of those arty subjects at school like painting, sketching, anything like that. Also music — I love guitar and I've had singing lessons."
