A surprisingly large group of well known girls turned out on a Tuesday evening for the Essence make-up and beauty party at the Grafton Lounge. The brand launched its gorgeous winter colour collection and winter trend editions, so perhaps it’s not that surprising that girls love make-up after all.
Joining in the beauty crew was Rosanna Davidson who looked effortlessly chic in her new winter LBD; mother and daughter duo Mary and Dervla Burke from Crystal Swing were minus Derek for a night (apparently he’s not really into make-up) while Elaine Crowley, Zoe Wong and Hira Shah were all enjoying a girls night out.
Essence was also delighted to have current Rose of Tralee Clare Kambamettu in attendance. Gorgeous Claire has a busy year ahead of her with work, charity commitments (she just launched the Christmas card campaign for the Cystic Fibrosis association) and international travel assignments to countries such as the U.S. and India.
