A KILMOYLEY native who runs a facebook and instagram blog called ‘Lotions and Potions’ about all things skincare, has made the long list for the Beauty Blog Awards.

Niall Fitzgerald is hoping people will take time to give him a vote to progress to the next stage of the competition.

Niall qualified as a beauty therapist in 2017, through Kerry ETB under Tara O’Halloran Cronin and was one of the first men in Ireland to achieve the CIDESCO international diploma (highest level of beauty).
