Charlotte Tilbury slashes price of mystery boxes by €66 in huge summer sale
One of the standout offers is the return of Charlotte's Mystery Boxes, packed with four full-size makeup and skincare favourites. There are two versions to choose from - 'Pretty Pink and 'Cheeky Peach - each tailored to a specific colour palette. Whether you love a rosey glow or a peachy finish, there's something here to suit your style.
Each mystery box normally costs €131, but is now on sale for just €65 - or you can grab the duo for €130 (down from €260) if you want to mix and match.
As the name suggests, the exact contents are a surprise - but Charlotte Tilbury has given a few hints. Promo images show silhouettes of what look like lipsticks (€37), blush palettes (€44), mascaras (€32) and possibly a skincare treat. And while shades and formulas are kept secret, everything will stick to either the pink or peach theme - great for summer makeup bags.
Irish fans of the brand know these mystery drops tend to sell out fast, and previous versions have included everything from the Beautyverse Palette to Magic Cream minis, making them serious value for money.
Elsewhere, LookFantastic's July beauty box - worth over €150 - is currently at €20 and contains products from Molten Brown, Avant, This Works and more.
And the Boots' Festival Edit Beauty Bag is €55 and worth €190.95. With the likes of Milk Makeup, Too Faced, Kylie Cosmetics and more inside, it's a real treat that'll help cure any festival blues.
While the new Charlotte Tilbury Mystery Boxes are a real treat regardless of what's inside, the only nuisance would be receiving a product that is not quite the right shade for the shopper's skin tone or type.
If you'd prefer to know exactly what you're getting, there are plenty of other summer offers worth checking out. The Charlotte's Summer Icons Box is down to €117 from €235 and includes seven full-sized favourites, including the Matte Beauty Blush Wand, Pillow Talk eyeliner, Push Up Lashes mascara and a travel-sized Magic Cream.
There's also the Hollywood Flawless Filter and Airbrush Flawless Foundation Duo for €52 (usually €104) - a cult combo beloved by makeup artists and influencers alike.
Charlotte Tilbury's international shipping means Irish beauty lovers won't miss out, and delivery is available across the country for €3.95 - or free on orders over €59. Whether you're topping up your makeup bag or trying something new, this is a chance to bag luxury products at a fraction of the price.

'I'm Ireland's emoji expert, and one you've never used is about to blow up'
The 'tears of joy' emoji remains the most popular in the world but the red heart is a close second, an Irish expert has revealed. Keith Broni, who is the editor in chief of which is the world's number one emoji resource, said the icons are no longer considered 'frivolous' and are a 'cornerstone of digital communication.' The Dubliner also stressed the use of symbols is constantly changing and believes there's an unused one that will surge in popularity in years to come. When asked why they are so popular Mr Broni, who spoke to the Irish Mirror for World Emoji Day today, said: 'Texts are dry without any kind of semantic markers. We don't write text messages as if they're prose where there are cues …we write text messages as if they are verbal speech. 'And when we speak face to face or even over the phone there are what we call paralinguistic cues. So my vocal inflection, my hand gestures, my facial expressions, my body posture, all of these are very, very important elements in communication and text messaging and social media posts can completely lack these, and emojis allow for us to add semantic cues into this space.' He continued: 'That's not to say that emojis are a one to one analogues with the exact facial expressions that they happen to depict. They're intentionally bombastic, cartoonish, playful, comic book-esque, but they serve a very similar function. 'They allow us to create a sense of emotional context and also create a sense of rapport when we're communicating with people, again, either via WhatsApp groups or social media platforms.' Mr Broni said the most popular emojis are the ones which are overtly positive and said even negative versions are mostly used in a jokey way. He also said there's a shift - older people are sticking with the 'tears of joy' emoji to convey laughter while those in Gen Z have begun using the 'skull' to express that 'they're dead or they're dying laughing'. But an even newer trend that's popular with those on the cusp of Gen Z and Gen Alpha is using the Wilted flower with the broken heart. He said this is used by people when they want to show they're sad but in a "performative way'. Keith Broni, the editor in chief of emojipedia, is an emoji expert (Image: EMOJIPEDIA / SWNS) Mr Broni declared emoji uses were constantly being repurposed and even the most banal can surge in popularity - replacing ones which have been used for years. The emoji expert explained: 'I guarantee there is an emoji sitting there that has gone, largely unused and unloved for the last decade, that is going to have its moment in the next few years. People look at the emoji keyboard every day. It's a freely accessible feature that is usable anywhere. When asked how an emoji can become popular, he added: 'Sometimes it can be an in-joke amongst a group of friends in a WhatsApp group. And if that then resonates with that group, it can kind of spread to other WhatsApp groups, to other social media platforms, and then it can scale up and potentially be the new version of how the skull emoji encapsulated the emergence in slang terms of I'm dying, laughing and I'm dead, which then began to eat into the use of the crying, laughing face.' Mr Broni also said emojis use cannot be stripped from transcripts during court cases because the text alone doesn't convey the entire meaning and said this proves their use isn't frivolous When asked about the misconceptions surrounding emojis, he said: 'The one that they're frivolous, that they don't hold real communicative weight. This is one that has really and truly been put to bed over the last decade as they begin to appear more and more in court cases. 'You cannot strip emojis from a transcript of a text message communication, and expect the text itself to contain all the information about the tone and intention of every single text message. The emojis being used are very valid communicative symbols in this context. And this kind of growing literature around emoji in legal cases is quite fascinating.'

Irish hopeful set to star in Netflix's Love Is Blind UK as air date announced

Tommy Martin: Club World Cup? Even if the players didn't need a break, we certainly do
Bloody hell, football, give us a break. This is, after all, possibly one of the greatest weeks of sport-that-is-not-football in history. It is the week of a properly historic All-Ireland hurling final, the first ever between Cork and Tipperary. What a wonderful thing! On Saturday it's the Lions first test against the Wallabies — THE LIONS! GRRR! TRADITION! PASSION! HEDGE FUNDS! Yes, it is a Leinster & District XV according to some, but still, come on — THE LIONS! You have The Open back on Irish soil at Royal Portrush. Northern Ireland welcomes Rory, Shane, Scottie, Bryson and all the lads, though thankfully not with one of its famous bonfires. There's Wimbledon to digest, and the All-Ireland football semi-finals and Katie Taylor winning her headline trilogy fight with Amanda Serrano at Madison Square Garden. An epic conclusion to the cricket test between England and India at Lord's. An Irishman in the yellow jersey in the Tour de France for God's sake! And still, football barges its way in. I mean, come on: Donald Trump doing a David May while Chelsea captain Reece James lifts the FIFA Club World Cup trophy — which looks like a cross between a precision astronomical instrument and Liberace's bedside lamp — and Cole Palmer staring balefully at the world's most powerful man as if he has skipped him in the queue for a sausage roll at the deli counter. Just out of shot, FIFA president Gianni Infantino is beckoning Trump to get off stage like a mithered teacher trying to direct a preschool Nativity play. As tableaux go, it's a modern Caravaggio. It's as if someone asked ChatGPT to create an image that summed up our mad old world. Even in such a momentous week in sport-that-is-not-football, here comes football, pulling focus, like a spoiled child demanding parental attention by doing a poop in the middle of the kitchen floor. Not that I actually saw it live, mind you. I managed to not watch pretty much the whole FIFA Club World Cup, due to a host of complex reasons, but mainly down to being too lazy to figure out how to put it on my TV. I guess that DAZN, the streamer that broadcast the tournament, is in there somewhere. I'm pretty sure I watched a Katie Taylor fight on it one time. And all I would have to do is find the other remote and toggle on to the homescreen and then find the app and possibly remember a password to log in and away we'd go. But sorry Gianni, I know the tournament was 'the most successful club competition in the world' and marked the beginning of 'the golden era of club football' — according to, well, you — but what can I say, I decided to sit this one out. And yet, here it is, barging its way front and centre in the midsummer sporting agenda, elbowing top golfers and beefy British and Irish Lions out of the way in all its silly, gaudy, attention-seeking glory. Yes football, we see you, we hear you, but mummy is busy right now, ok darling? Lamine Yamal. File picture: Emilio Morenatti/AP Actually, hold that thought. For arresting football-related images — possibly quite literally — we switch to Lamine Yamal's 18th birthday party, which has gotten the Barcelona star in hot water over reports that he hired a troupe of people with dwarfism to provide the entertainment. Spain's Ministry of Social Rights has asked the state prosecutor to investigate after the Spanish Association of People with Achondroplasia and Other Skeletal Dyplasias (ADEE) filed a complaint, describing the incident as 'unacceptable in the 21st century'. To add to the whole Wolf of Wall Street vibe, it was reported that a Spanish model claimed she was approached to attend the party and recruit 12 other women to join her, as long as they had a specific breast size and blonde hair, with each woman allegedly to be paid €17,500 for their trouble. Obviously, Yamal is an idiot, but then most kids his age are and especially if you hand them millions and millions to spend at their whim. In my experience, if you give a teenager any amount of money they will spend it unwisely. From cans of Monster and fruity vapes, it's a short hop to dancing dwarves and busty blondes. To be honest, the whole thing is actually an advertisement for the FIFA Club World Cup, in a devil making work for idle hands kind of way. Had Barcelona been busy traipsing around the USA trying to play football in face-melting heat, then Yamal would never have had time to reach the dubious section of the party planner's catalogue. As it is, he's gone from Ballon D'Or-chasing boy wonder to modern day Caligula just by being given some time off. Player burnout be damned, Gianni was right — keep flogging 'em, it's for their own good. Of course, both stories kind of illustrate why we need a break from football. At this level, in its modern form, it really is too much. It's such a pungent stew of ego and money and geopolitics and celebrity and utter nonsense, all filtered through the brainrot freeway of the social media driven news cycle, that not to give your jaded cranium a little two-month summer rest can't be good for you. You don't even have to take a full break from football. International tournaments like the women's Euros and League of Ireland are permitted in this metaphorical mind detox. They are hearty and full of fibre and crucially are not things that Fabrizio Romano is interested in telling you about. In truth, this is probably why most of us decided not to figure out how to watch the FIFA Club World Cup (which, to be fair, aside from half-empty stadiums, terrifying prevailing weather conditions and that awful Robbie Williams song, most observers accept wasn't too bad, given how it threw up a few decent storylines and shared the love beyond club football's European power base a bit). Yes, we echoed the concerns of bodies like FIFPRO about exploitation of players, acknowledged how the tournament was a conduit for Saudi Arabia to further spread its tentacles of influence, recognised Infantino for the nabob of narcissism that he is, and recoiled at the incessant sucking up to the White House. But it wasn't our principles — mostly we just needed a break. For our own good. It's only four weeks till the Premier League and eight weeks till most of the same teams that were in the Club World Cup go again in the Champions League. We can do this. And in case you haven't heard, there's some decent sport-that-is-not-football on to see us through.
