As a blogger im often asked to events for product launches, new restaurants etc but when Miss Ireland invited me to the launch i squealed with delight. Myself and my husband decided to stay overnight in the beautiful new hotel Iveagh Gardens Dublin and boarded the train on Thursday August 23rd 2018 bound for Dublin.

After checking into the Iveagh Gardens Hotel (you can see a room tour in my instagram highlights under Miss Ireland) https://www.instagram.com/lurganista/  I was invited as a VIP to have my makeup and hair done at the Makeupstore Dublin. The beautiful Nicole Cardiff made me look amazing using SoSue lashes and contour as they’re one of the sponsors of Miss Ireland 2018 you can book in with Nicole HERE

THE CROWN

I couldn’t go to Miss Ireland 2018 and not show you lovelies the crown, Sadly I couldn’t try it on incase it was broken before the big night. As im only 4ft 11 sadly even in my younger days I couldn’t enter Miss Ireland but was vicariously living through all the beautiful entrants.
