A question that divides a nation.
Is it strictly for emergencies? Or a part of your routine?
What we really mean here is the pink rubber ones or the blue metal ones.
Fans of the dolls are recreating their makeup looks.
Justin Bieber’s the latest celeb to seemingly go under the laser.
Do you get your shampoo from a supermarket or department store?

YESTERDAY, A SURVEY was released by the Irish Second-Level Students’ Union that showed 68% of students want a ‘hybrid-model’ Leaving Cert used in 2022.
This would involve a similar set up to last year, with students being offered the choice between sitting the traditional exams, and having their grade assessed by their teachers and then ‘standardised’ by the Department of Education. If they choose to do both, the higher of the two grades will be their final grade.
Current Government plans for this year’s Leaving Cert are for a ‘traditional’ pre-pandemic State exam with “some modifications”.
So we’re asking: Do you think there should be a ‘hybrid’ Leaving Cert this year?
