Here are all the items which contestants on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here could get in trouble for bringing into camp.

Every year it seems like at least one of the celebrities heading into the jungle finds themselves on the receiving end of the producers' wrath for bringing 'contraband' in.

So what items aren't the campmates allowed?

Make-up and beauty products

Long-term fans of the series will be well aware that contestants aren't allowed to bring cosmetics into the jungle with them.

The one exemption to this rule was 2017 Queen of the Jungle Georgia Toffolo, who was allowed to bring foundation with her in order to cover up severe acne.

"When producers told me it was banned I broke down in tears and said, ‘I can’t do this," she told The Sun in an interview.

"I’ve been on strong tablets for six months trying to get rid of [the spots]. So show bosses agreed that, because it was a medical problem, I was allowed to put foundation on once a day in the morning."

Contestants being banned from bringing make-up into camp is a topic which seems to come up every year when eagle-eyed viewers notice that certain celebrities don't appear to be as bare-faced as their other co-stars.

N-Dubz star Tulisa, Loose Women's Jane Moore, and Coleen Rooney are the latest crop of celebs to find themselves embroiled in the ongoing make-up saga, with several viewers sharing their confusion over the super defined eyebrows and elongated eyelashes.

"Why isn't Tulisa and Jane's make-up coming off?" one person questioned on X, while a second added: "Wait why is Jane also wearing makeup... have they changed the rules this year?"

The answer to this age-old question is relatively simple, several cast members will get semi-permanent make-up treatments before entering the jungle.

Food items

One of the main parts of jungle life is forcing the celebrities to head back to basics, which means no spicing up their rice and beans rations.

The repercussions of breaking this rule was seen during I'm A Celebrity... South Africa when contestants Gillian McKeith, Myleene Klass and Paul Burrell were rumbled by producers after brining in spices, mints, tea bags and coffee.

Recreational items

This one is more obvious than the others, but celebs are not allowed to bring in things to entertain themselves with while in the jungle, as it defeats the purpose of the show.

"So you wouldn’t have anything that could be distracting, part of this game is making sure that you are creating reality and having a chat with other people and doing stuff and dealing with the boredom," executive producer Olly Nash previously explained.

Anything else?

Sentimental objects and anything considered 'luxury items' by producers are also prohibited, with celebrities instead getting the chance to win home comforts during tasks.

There are also strict penalties for breaking the rules, with previous contestant Joel Dommett confirming the campmates face punishment for helping out with jobs which aren't their chores.
