Just waiting for the water works and the snap about online bullies from outside her therapists office. She brings all this on herself. Just declare. How she can say she's transparent with a straight face is beyond me.

So the instagram post is now edited to have #sp at the end! No idea how to attach a screenshot of it!

Yes even the other week grace was lamenting the issues she's having with her car ... oh its got this and this wrong with it ....I think i just need a new one. She probably thinks she's reached the heights that deserve a car ambassador gig.

She is actually a disgrace, she literally has to be policed by followers to do her job correctly. How is she not mortified at being caught out time after time? Does Andrea Roache not give a damn what the feck these "influencers" that are on her books get up to? How does she present the likes of Grace, with all her negative press, to brands?

It's hard to fathom.

That car is just over a year old, she was pregnant when they got it, I remember her talking about it. So if it's got issues then she needs to go back to the BMW garage, but yes I'd guess she's hinting at people to give her a car use, like her mate Rosie

NO way, so most of the bloggers are actually signed up to her agency? I actually never knew that

It's the hinting they would like a product that annoys me. All the bloggers have clearly been invited for a free blow dry in that new place in Dublin. Some have said it was free, most have not. Grace and her friend went in last week, just one snap of their hair done that was it. Yesterday she was saying she's organised a big dinner with her bloggers friends and was meant to ring and try and book in for a blow dry, and she would be ringing them to book now. Clearly she wants them to invite her in again. It's the first she spoke about having this blogger dinner, so I'm sure they will all be in getting their blow drys for free before the dinner.

Maybe I'm just cynical and that's not what happened at all.

Guess where she was today......you'll never guess.......Now she may have booked herself?

A lot of them are, including Grace. They are listed on AR's website.

Ray37 · 08-08-2017 06:35PM

Andrea Roche is doing such a poor job of running her agency IMO. She needs to cut ties with the likes of Grace who can't seem to understand how to add 2 simple letters to her sponsored posts. TBH I find Graces girl next door thing is slipping, she is really only in it for a few quid, which is totally fine, but why the need to hide it? It shocks me that so many of her followers are so easily duped by her, and think she is showing off goods just to share with her followers. Some of them genuinely have no idea how much of her snap is just like a shopping channel, and think that anyone who calls her out on it is 'jealous' (give me a break). Anything Grace shows I will avoid now, I only watch out of curiosity to see has she changed her ways re transparency, but clearly not, she only edits her posts when it's pointed out to her *eyeroll*.

bigpink · 09-08-2017 12:27AM

How is Grace so big and popular?Does she even blog?

fussyonion · 09-08-2017 07:14PM

Snore. Grace has said on FB she's doing 'master classes' in Dry & Fly. Ooh coincidence you mentioned them only yesterday!

€60 a ticket and you bring your own makeup and brushes and 'learn how to do makeup'.
Why does Grace have to copy Rosie Connolly all the time? She's become so predictable.

retro:electro · 09-08-2017 07:17PM

Wtf. €60 to bring my own make up and learn how to apply it. I'd hardly have it if I didn't know how to use it. Also these classes stand for nothing. They're not certified classes and you've learned nothing at the end of the day only how to squander €60 in the daftest way possible.

Imagine you just brought a lipgloss and mascara. That'd be a pretty short class!!!
Ha she will chance anything. But there's prob loads of ppl going to avail of it mores the pity.

fussyonion · 09-08-2017 07:34PM

Gets right under my skin that she earns her money in such a slieveen (spelling?) way.
Hosting a masterclass (which is not a new concept; everyone does them now) and expecting people to bring their makeup bag (is Faces going to go through everyone's bag is she?) and charge €60?

Sure what are YT tutorials for?!
Faces is just being very blasè about how she gets her dough now. Any credibility she had is slowly going; she'd turn up to the opening of a feckin envelope.

PS I'm fkin sick of her way of saying 'Gooood morning everyone' and calling Sienna a 'gorgee girl'. Ugh. I think I'll have to unfollow her.
She just irritates the hell out of me.

PPS Her sister has Snapchat but has closed Snaps. Why? She ain't famous enough to warrant it!!!

Lindy97 · 09-08-2017 08:13PM

60 quid for 2 hours work. 15 people.
She'll net 900 for that. Goodie bags will all be donated from Meaghers and the venue is a new place so theyre prob doing it for free to get publicity and feet in the door.

Even if she dedicates the full 2 hours to going around individually, theyll get eff all time with her. Better off going into make up forever and paying for a 1 on 1 class.

Anyone who pays for this is a mug beyond belief but I've no doubt there are 15 stupid people out there

Wexy86 · 09-08-2017 08:14PM

Honestly I would love a qualified MUA to go through my makeup bag and brushes and show me how to use them correctly.

However in saying that I don't think Grace is actually a qualified MUA nor will she have time in one masterclass to help all attendees, each person would require at minimum one hour to get some sort of look completed with their own kit, just another money spinner that will be lapped up by her followers.

Lindy97 · 09-08-2017 08:33PM

Exactly! One on one sessions are brilliant.

Toastytoes · 09-08-2017 08:44PM

€60 for a group make up lesson with 14 other people seems v expensive?! Would it not make more sense to go to one of the counters in BTs who give one on one lesson and you can redeem the cost on products?! Doesn't Grace get her own makeup applied by an mua for special occasions? Is she qualified/certified?

Apologies for all the ?! above, it's just a bit insane.

laylag · 09-08-2017 08:49PM

Well it's sold out n ppl begging on Facebook for more classes n different locations.
A lot of gullible people out there it seems!

fussyonion · 09-08-2017 09:14PM

No doubt her little human fashion accessory will make a surprise appearance.

I reckon you're right about Meaghers donating the goodie bags.

What I find cheeky is when Grace mentioned earlier '...it'll be in Dry & Fly. I've been there twice so far'. Yeah you happened to mention them yesterday. Setting your stall out early weren't ya?
Don't think we can't cop what you're doing!

Ray37 · 09-08-2017 11:33PM

Meaghers 100% doing the goody bags. She's soooo predictable. How do people not see she is just charging them e60 to hang out with her? I actually laughed when I heard her going on about this.... What's next, Pippa does a Fashion Factory, but you bring your own clothes?? I'm sorry if this comes off as rude, but I don't think she is even good at makeup. She has 2 looks, a red lip and eyeliner, or a brown eye shadow and nude lip look. That's alllll I've ever seen her do. Sorry, but she is taking the actual p*** now, and the people who are paying her a just ridiculous.

Cria · 10-08-2017 12:07AM

€60 I'm in shock how can she justify that much for a masterclass where it's just her looking in make up bags ..cannot actually believe people are paying that much .. is her sister a blogger or something grace shares her handle on Snapchat ,,

qo2cj1dsne8y4k · 10-08-2017 01:14AM

Probably so Bella baby can contact her directly lol
Girls I'll run a masterclass for all youse at the very special price of 80 euro per head. Bring your own makeup and I'll see if currys and Miss fit skinny tea will put together a goodie bag

ciaradx · 10-08-2017 08:21AM

Just as a comparison, The Beautiful Truth held a masterclass last week in Tralee with Benefit. €30 ticket with €10 redeemable against product on the night, a goodie bag and 10% discount on product aswell. That's good value!
I believe she had a makeup artist from benefit at the event as well (I might be wrong on that, just going on what she had on her snapchat!)

Lindy97 · 10-08-2017 08:44AM

The more I think of it then more I'm genuinely shocked at the price

Sunny Dayz · 10-08-2017 10:34AM

It's not the worst idea in the world. I've tons of makeup at home, some of it I'd say probably doesn't suit me or I could be applying some of it wrong, or not blending enough etc. Most make up lessons in the likes of BT's or Debenhams are brand centred. I do like the idea of being shown how to use what I already have in my makeup bag rather than feeling pressured into buying more stuff. It would be better for very small groups, like max 4 people or one on one. But €60 for that it's extremely pricey, I could get my makeup done twice by my usual lady for that price and it's all her own supplies used!

retro:electro · 10-08-2017 10:37AM

But she'd literally need to know about every product in order to guide you how to use it. I'd imagine some girls have make up that she's never heard of or tried before, and she's meant to assist them with it how? I doubt she'll have much time to spend 1 on 1 with people. To me it just screams "give me your money". It's actually cheeky.

qo2cj1dsne8y4k · 10-08-2017 10:37AM

I'm gonna come out and say it.
I wouldn't pay her to do my makeup, I don't think she's a makeup guru. She's a few "looks" that she does on herself but I was never impressed by the pics she put up on pelo. Now if she worked with inglot she'd obviously have been trained but I don't think she's very good at makeup. I'd keep my 60 quid and watch some YouTube tutorials

Lindy97 · 10-08-2017 10:55AM

She has herself down as one of Ireland's top make up artists...when did that happen?? Who decided that??
She's trained with Inglot as far as I know and maybe another company but is she ITEC/CIBTAC/CIDESCO qualified?
Bringing your own seems fine to some but you might not be using the right stuff so what's she going to do with that?
I've also been very unimpressed with her make up looks, I don't see any major skills that a hundred other girls don't have, or anyone with a flair for make up. She doesn't do her own for events etc which is very odd. I'm ITEC trained, although I don't do it as a career anymore and the only time I didn't do my own was my wedding as it would have been too hectic lol

Gunslinger92 · 10-08-2017 11:54AM

Hahahahaha.
Hahahaha.
Ha.

One of Ireland's top make up artists, yah keep codding yourself love, I've only heard of her for negative reasons such as the currys incident and the skinny tea.

Her make up is fine. Nothing wrong with it but nothing to make me think "ooh yeah I'd like her to do mine" either.
