Make-up forever

Last night I had attended a small dinner in honour of celebrity make-up artist Daniel Sandler, who works with Bourjois Cosmetics. He was in town to record a feature on RTE's Off the Rails, which will be broadcast on the first episode of the new series.

He's worked with big names such as Kate Moss, Mena Suvari, Naomi Campbell, Gareth Gates, Rachel Weisz, Yasmin Le Bon, Boy George and Jade Jagger. I could go on, but you get the picture. Let's just say his talent is always in demand and he regularly travels around Europe, making lucky girls and boys look even prettier than they actually are.

Last night's dinner, in the ever popular Bang Café, was hosted by the ever charming Luca Hickey, head of Bourjois Cosmetics in Ireland. Business must be good - he's driving a new Ferarri.

Daniel was accompanied by his UK publicist, the lovely Lesley Chivers. PR dynamo Louise Byrne was also there, looking great after a hectic time at the recent Rose of Tralee, where she was working with her client, Newbridge Silverware.

Making up the blond trio was the beautiful Pamela Flood, who co-presents Off the Rails. Pamela is in the process of buying a new pad and is looking to move to the Rathfarnham area in the near future.

Now that will be a stylish abode.
