Woman, 25, mistaken for her 59-year-old mum's SISTER slams trolls for ‘nasty, awful comments' about her appearance
Some shared their unsolicited beauty tips to ''look younger'' NO KIDDING Woman, 25, mistaken for her 59-year-old mum's SISTER slams trolls for 'nasty, awful comments' about her appearance A WOMAN, 25, mistaken for her 59-year-old mum's sister has hit back at the brutal online trolls. Beauty buff Coco Pons went viral on TikTok earlier this month after she shared an adorable make-up video with her mum, 59, before heading to a wedding. 2 Many said Coco looked ''the same age'' as her mum - who is more than 25 years older Credit: TIKTOK/@curatedbycoco___ 2 The US-based TikToker posted a follow-up message hitting back at the meanie Credit: TIKTOK/@curatedbycoco___ In the video, which has since racked up close to 7million views, the wholesome mother and daughter duo could be seen doing their make-up and hair. But while the two stunners looked incredible both with and without the glowy make-up, the clip, unfortunately, landed on the so-called 'wrong side of TikTok'. Hiding behind their profiles, thousands of online trolls flooded to comments, where many said Coco looked ''the same age'' as her mum - who is more than 25 years older. While some wondered if the two were ''sisters'', others dubbed the cute duo ''older twins'', as they begged Coco to start using ''sunscreen''. Meanwhile, some brutal viewers refused to believe the daughter was 25 - and others shared their unsolicited beauty tips to ''look younger''. After reading the thousands of ''awful and nasty'' comments about her looks, the US-based TikToker posted a follow-up message hitting back at the meanies. Sharing a series of snaps of herself and her mum, Coco said: ''I've never had anything done to my face because I felt like it wasn't necessary. ''I've always had freckles and pale skin because I'm a ginger,'' said Coco who posts under the username @curatedbycoco___. Coco, who's always sported ''blonde eyebrows'' trolls urged her to dye ''darker'', added that she's also using sun cream - despite what some may think. ''I have, wear a tonne of sunscreen because I live at the beach - and I've never entered a tanning bed in my life.'' I've lost 9 stone & am barely recognisable from my former self - my transformation's so insane people even think it's AI She went on: ''I don't remember asking others for opinions. And I couldn't care less what random people think about us. ''Keep your comments to yourself next time speaking about someone looks,'' Coco urged everyone to be kinder in the caption. The latest video has since taken the internet by storm, amassing more than 8million views and over 535k likes. Why is turmeric good for anti-ageing? A study published in the Asia Pacific Journal of Clinical Nutrition suggests that turmeric and curcumin may help prevent DNA damage and aid in DNA repair. This is promising news for disease prevention and slowing the ageing process. It also: Boosts Collagen Production: Collagen is a protein that maintains the skin's elasticity and firmness. As we age, collagen production decreases, leading to wrinkles and sagging skin. Turmeric helps stimulate collagen synthesis, thereby promoting firmer and more youthful skin. Improves Skin Health: Turmeric has been shown to improve various skin conditions, such as acne, psoriasis, and eczema. Its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties help soothe the skin, reduce redness, and promote a clearer complexion. One fan said: ''PEOPLE ONLINE ARE MISERABLE!!!! You're beautiful!'' Someone else chimed in: ''you're just a happy person with smile lines why is everyone so mean.'' A third commented: ''You are STUNNING. Unsolicited opinion, I think if you filled in your brows darker it would have a youthful effect. But truly you look your age and are gorgeous.'' Meanwhile, another wrote: ''As a fellow ginger we are more prone to sunburn which means drier, wrinkle prone skin. ''Many people are overdoing it but both you guys need/needed to protect your skin more. People wouldn't point it out if it wasn't in our face.''

Plans unveiled for revamp of Phoenix cinema in Dingle
The developers behind the proposed arts centre for the former Phoenix Cinema in Dingle unveiled a preliminary design for the new venue at a meeting in the Co Kerry town at the weekend. Yvonne McGuinness, who had purchased the premises in 2024 with her husband, actor Cillian Murphy, was joined by planning consultant Laura Brock and architect Andrew Clancy in the second of a series of three public meetings they are hosting at the Phoenix. This 'sketching' phase of the consultations had an almost-full cinema witness the unveiling of a potential model for the new venue, and a discussion of its possible uses. Yvonne McGuinness and Cillian Murphy last year bought the iconic Phoenix Cinema in Dingle which had shut during the covid lockdown in 2021. File picture The ambitious plans for the approximately one-acre site include the addition of building of similar height next to the existing three-story cinema, the enhancement of the outdoor courtyard area, and the creation of exhibition and rehearsal spaces, as well as several residential studios for artists. The current main cinema area would be transformed into a state-of-the-art performance space with removable seating that would allow for films and theatre performances, as a well as music gigs. Yvonne McGunness, centre, at the consultation session at the Phoenix cinema in Dingle on Saturday, with planning consultant Laura Brock, left, and architect Andrew Clancy, right. Picture: Manuela Dei Grandi 'We are building less than what a commercial developer would, but we're building a good bit more than what Cillian and Yvonne would have ever envisaged at the start,' said Mr Clancy, a director at Dublin-based Clancy Moore Architects. No budget was mentioned for what would likely be a multi-year, multimillion euro project, but those involved in the development are mindful of trying to ensure the planning process is as streamlined as possible. Ms McGuinness — a respected artist who has a house in the area — and her team are aiming to have their plans for the venue finalised in the coming months to avail of regeneration grants being awarded in spring 2026. The current co-owner urged local people in Dingle to engage with the development team as early as possible to identify any potential issues. 'I've done a postcard drop. I've called into every street around here myself,' said Ms McGuinness of efforts to spread the word on their proposals. Having opened in 1919, the Phoenix in Dingle served as a cinema, concert hall, and events centre for more than a century for the whole community including these revellers at the Sea Angling Festival Dance in August, 1958. File picture The final instalment of the local consultation sessions will take place near the end of September when more-detailed plans will be presented. The early proposals at the Saturday meeting seemed to be warmly received by attendees at the Phoenix, with issues raised such as the lack of facilities for the youth of the town, and the need for the building to be accessible for the elderly and people with disabilities. The architect confirmed the proposed new building would have a lift, and that upstairs rooms would be accessible and available for local organisations to avail of. The Phoenix Cinema in Dingle. Mr Clancy also outlined the sustainable ethos of the new premises, with heat pumps as the primary source of heating, as well as the use of materials such as Irish timber, and low-carbon forms of cladding. The Phoenix had been put on the market by previous owners, the O'Sullivan family, after its closure during the first Covid lockdown in November 2021. It had operated as a cinema and entertainment venue for over 100 years, being reborn twice after fires — hence the name 'Phoenix'. Cillian Murphy himself had visited the cinema in 2010 for a screening of his film Perrier's Bounty, and other luminaries who have appeared at the venue include Rory Gallagher, who played there with the Fontana showband in 1964.
