She’s already earned her Victoria Secret wings, walked for the likes of Chanel and Versace and now Stella Maxwell has been named the newest face of Max Factor.

The 25-year-old model – whose parents are from Belfast – will join Candice Swanepoel as a global ambassador for the cosmetic giant.

Speaking of the deal which will see her make her Max Factor debut as part of the brand’s 2017 campaign, Stella said: “Max Factor is such an iconic makeup brand and I love experimenting with makeup, so becoming the newest ambassador is a dream come true.”

“I remember stealing Max Factor products from my sister when I first discovered makeup and now, more than ever, I rely on the products for whatever my hectic schedule demands,” she continued.

Earlier this year the stunning blonde was named 2016’s hottest woman by Maxim magazine.

While Stella was actually born in Belgium before moving to New Zealand with her family, because her parents are from Northern Ireland we still like to claim her as our own!

She already has a best-selling range of nail polishes, as well as a mega-hit contour palette.

And now – finally – Suzanne Jackson has released strip lashes, so (fingers crossed!) we can get the blogger’s gorgeously full look ourselves.

Yes, under the SOSU brand, the 31-year-old Dubliner has created not one but TWO lash collections – Human Hair Lashes, which boasts eight different varieties, and 3D Luxury Silk Lashes, of which there are four different types.  

The Human Hair lashes (€5.95 per set) are lightweight, of premium quality and enable beauty lovers to create quick and easy everyday looks.

While the 3D Luxury Silk Lashes are notably more costly at €19.95 a pair, they come in more dramatic designs and, once cared for, can be reused up to 20 times.

Speaking of her new venture, Suzanne said: “The initial SOSU Lash journey began three years ago but for me the range had to be perfect – a premium lash collection offering plenty of choice and catering for everyone.”

According to sosu.ie, the Ella, Gigi and Katie lashes – all of which are from the Human Hair collection – are already sold out.

Currently, the other nine lash styles are still available online.

SOSU Human Hair Lashes cost €5.95 and SOSU 3D Luxury Silk Lashes retail at €19.95.  SOSU Lashes are available from selected pharmacies nationwide and www.sosu.ie.

We love a good oul success story, and what better way to be successful than do what you love on a major celeb.

Irish hair stylist Gareth Bromell has been hailed for creating Taylor Swift's 'post-break-up-shag' and has been gathering major attention since posting a picture with her on Instagram.

The Limerick native even spoke to Vogue about the do' and said it's "Break-up hair done right.

"Taylor wanted a bit of a change with her fringe and her bangs," he told the fashion magazine.

"What's really modern at the moment is the shag hairstyle, which is a heavy fringe chopped into at the ends with a bit of layering.

"That's what Taylor and I talked about and what's what I did for her.

“I’m living the dream and I’m very lucky,” he added.

We can see A LOT of ladies getting 'the shag' soon.

When it comes to public transport there is no doubt that we would all much prefer to take the train rather than the bus.

Better views from the window, more comfortable seats and the option to go to the bathroom if nature calls.

But one big downside to that scenic, spacious journey is the irritating announcement we have to listen to every time we pull away from a station.

You know the one, the automated message that reminds you every 20 minutes that indeed you are still on the same train you got on an hour ago.

Listing every stop along the way in an unbearably monotonous tone, the Irish Rail announcement is the reason they sell headphones at the station shop.

However, one Kerry man has done what we never thought possible; he has made the announcement entertaining.

Comedian Bernard Casey posted the simple video to his Facebook page on Friday and has since been viewed over 110,000 times.

The simple impersonation is probably the funniest thing we’ve seen all day.

She’s joked about weight loss, gotten real with her stretch marks and has even blocked Piers Morgan on Twitter – yes, it’s safe to say there are many reasons Chrissy Teigen is already our ultimate girl crush.

But now the 30-year-old model has gone and given us Irish one HUGE reason to love her forever more as she has publicly declared that our butter is “awesome”.

Amid script reading and cookery books, the mother of one’s latest Snapchat story had us rushing for the replay button as we noticed one very familiar product pop onto screens.

That’s right ladies, in a snap captioned “not an ad just really awesome” Chrissy Teigen herself photographed a big ole tub of Kerrygold butter.

Naturally the star’s snap has sent her Irish fans into a tizzy, with one Twitter user summing us all up by writing “CHRISSY TEIGEN USES KERRYGOLD BUTTER UGH QUEEN” in celebration.

 

 

So next time you’re layering that golden goodness onto your toast, be sure to remember that that butter has been Chrissy approved.

With the likes of Nadia Forde, Samantha Mumba and Holly Carpenter, we thought this year's Irish Celebrity Masterchef would be different than any other.

But it turns out, the judges are not impressed by the contestants.

An inside source said: "It was all about creating a dish which reflected the identity of each celebrity cook. Honestly, nobody dazzled us.

"Our celeb cooks wouldn't be up to the standard of the top amateurs we get on Masterchef," the source told the Irish Sun.

"That said, during Tuesday's task some of our celebs surprised us with dishes, proving they have been listening to the advice they'd been given."

We can't wait for this to air!

Let's be fair, Irish reality shows are hilarious.

Where else would you get lads talking about their mammies and the elite collecting potatoes from a muddy field?!

Well, the stars taking part in the upcoming Celebrity Masterchef have just been revealed, and we have to say it's going to be… Interesting.

According to The Sunday World, some of the famous faces expected to take part include; Eurovision star Niamh Kavanagh, model Holly Carpenter, human rights campaigner Colm O’Gorman and former football star Oisinn McConville, singer/songwriter Mundy, former popstar Samantha Mumba, tv presenter Simon Delaney and meteorologist Evelyn Cusack.

With this lot, we can only imagine what's going to go down.

We get it. Speaking Irish can be a tad difficult (and this is coming from someone who went to the Gaeltacht for three years).

Some words don't even look like words and trying to pronounce it can turn out very, very bad.

And unfortunately, that's what happened to a poor Sky Sports News reporter last night.

While reporting on Shay Given announcing his retirement (again), he read Shay's statement live on air, but when it came to the end… things didn't go to plan.

Instead of saying, "Go raibh maith agat," he said something along the lines of, "Go…rabbith…meht…"

Awkward! Maybe we should stick him down in Árainn Mhór for a couple of weeks.

Wearing the face off your significant other – or indeed a random stranger who's caught your eye – is often part and parcel of a night out, but it looks like one bar in Galway has had to get stern on its patrons when it comes to this little issue.

Much-loved Galway hotpsot, Róisín Dubh, has taken to Facebook to remind its customers that the bar is only for ordering drinks, and not an invitation to play tonsil tennis in front of the poor bar staff.

Uploading a snap of a handwritten sign which reads 'No shifting at the bar please – sound', the good folk behind the cosy Galway hangout added:"Wait until after you get your drinks, please."

Commenting on the status which has been liked hundreds of times since its upload on Saturday, one Facebook user wrote: "To our visitors, this means no sloppy kissing or pulling at the bar until you've swallowed."

That's it ladies, you've been warned.

With Russian and English fans hitting the headlines for all the wrong reasons since the Euros kicked off, we can't help but feel more than a twinge of pride for our fellow countrymen who are flying the flag for Ireland in Paris this month.

From bonding with the locals to treating fellow football fans to a rendition of Dancing Queen, our lads and lassies know how to do it abroad, but the latest story to emerge from Euro mania is definitely the greatest yet.

Having stumbled upon a fellow Irish fan who had lost his ticket, Brian Kerrigan and a group of mates chipped in €50 each and made sure their new pal wouldn't miss out on seeing his country play in the French capital.

After capturing the glorious moment on camera, Brian uploaded the video to Facebook where it has been widely circulated since yesterday, and wrote "Just found Jay who was in tears because he lost his ticket. We all bunched in and sorted him out! COYBIG."

If this doesn't make you proud to be Irish, we don't know what will.

We get it. It's the Euros. And nearly every man in Ireland is getting giddy with excitement.

First, we had these two lads prank their mother by painting their WHOLE house green, white and orange. And now, we have this lad, who decided to prank his girlfriend.

Liam Kehoe from Co Louth text his girlfriend Rachel, pretending that he won tickets to Ireland's first game in the competition next Monday.

Being the supposedly loving boyfriend that he is, he then asked if she was free.

Rachel quickly responded, "Is this another prank?" before telling Liam that she's off on Monday.

However, Liam, who owns a bar, then hit her back with "Will you cover the bar for a couple of hours??" OUCH.

After the prankster uploaded the messages onto Facebook, he said: "I would imagine she is going to find some way of getting her own back or sweet revenge."

Oh, don't worry Liam, we bet she's plotting something brilliant for you.

A Sligo IT student found herself at the centre of some Hollywood rumours recently when the paparazzi caught her taking a selfie with rap-star Tyga.

Shannen Hurd – who studies social care – managed to get a snap with Kylie Jenner's ex when she spotted him outside his LA clothing store Last Kings last week.

Gossip websites quickly began to wonder who Tyga's 'mystery woman' was but it turns out Shannen has a boyfriend and has no connection with Tyga beyond their shared selfie which she captioned: "Chillin with Tyga on my last day in LA".

Since his split with Keeping Up with the Kardashians star Kylie last month,Tyga has been linked to a number of women, including model Demi Rose.

Meanwhile Kylie has been spending her time with Canadian rapper PartyNextDoor.
