We've tried to channel the unicorn look through glitter festival makeup and holographic hair trends, but emulating the fairytale creature has now never been easier. 

While it may be physically impossible to convert ourselves into the mythical creature, these stunning makeup brushes are here to help.

The handle of each brush resembles a unicorn horn, while the brush hairs are dyed a rainbow of beautiful pastel colours. 

The bright blue handle is also the ultimate colour pop, making them uber-easy to find in a cluttered makeup bag.

And the best part is? 

These affordable bad boys are from high street favourite, Penneys. 

The PS… Unicorn Brush Set comes in at a super affordable €10.00 for four brushes.

The set includes a fan brush for an on-fleek highlight, as well as a triad of foundation, buffing and powder brushes.

These brushes are literally the stuff of fairy tales…

In a blast from the not-so-distant past, British hip-hop group N-Dubz have confirmed that they are getting back together.

Not only that, but the reunion is due to happen "soonish."

The trio, made up of Dappy, Tulisa and Fazer, released three albums together before splitting to pursue solo projects.

"100 per cent, that’s definitely going to come really soonish," Fazer told OK.

"Not right now, we’ve all got individual things we’re focusing on at the minute, but obviously it’s all about timing."

"It was never a fallout, we took a break when we were at the peak. We’d literally just finished an arena tour, so we thought, 'let’s do it while we’re on a high'."

So Ireland has gotten more than a little bit obsessed with gin, and now there is an entire festival dedicated to the stuff coming to the capital.

Ginfusion is coming to Dublin, and the G&T drenched drinks festival will be taking up residence at the Bernard Shaw.

Utilising both the Eatyard and Shawyard spaces, this festival promises great food, gin tastings, Djs, live music, workshops, pop-up markets, classes, cocktail bars, and, most importantly, the craic. 

The event will run across four days and nights across the June bank holiday weekend (so the prefect post-Forbidden Fruit jaunt?).

The festival sounds like the ultimate summer experience, and best of all, admission is FREE.

There are no ticket sales or door fees, just rock up and enjoy the free flowing gin. 

Just make sure you get a bit of soakage in at one opf the food stalls first.

Earlier this year, Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck, announced that they would give their marriage another try, after previously deciding to separate in 2015.

However, it looks like the couple couldn’t sort out their differences and have now officially filed for divorce.

The pair married in 2005 after meeting on the set of the comic book action flick, Daredevil, and have three children together.

Jennifer and Ben issued a joint statement announcing their divorce, confirming they remain firm friends and will continue to raise their family together.

‘‘We go forward with love and friendship for one another and a commitment to co-parenting our children. This will be our only comment on this private, family matter.’’

The couple have managed to stay close throughout separation proceedings – taking family holidays to the Bahamas and even co-hosting a birthday party for their son, Samuel.

The announcement comes just one month after Ben revealed he had completed treatment for his ongoing alcohol addiction.

So, even though Benniffer 2.0 are no more, it looks the they're in a good place going forward.

Easter is just around the corner, and with it brings chocolate eating, family gatherings, and maybe even a bit of mass if you're feeling devout. 

It can sometimes be tough to find an outfit that looks fancy enough for a family occasion, while remaining super comfy to accommodate the food baby made of confectionery that we plan to establish on the day.

Ed Sheeran, everyone's favourite flame-headed singer-songwriter, brought his Divide tour to Dublin this week.

The 26-year-old performed two sold out shows at the 3Arena – and he absolutely killed it.

Twitter is flooded with pictures and videos that are making us beyond jealous we couldn't be there.

With such a heavy Irish folk influence on tracks like Galway Girl and Nancy Mulligan, the Dublin shows were sure to create some moments of magic. 

Ed even treated the crowd to a cover of Steve Earle's original Galway Girl

Everyone was feeling the love during Ed's performance of Perfect, arguably one of the cutest songs on the new album, but one lad took it to the next level by getting down on one knee.

Here's the moment she said YES, complete with a cheeky smile from Ed himself. 

The crowds weren't the only ones enjoying themselves though. Ed was full of smiles throughout both performances, even telling the crowd "I knew that this was going to be the best concert of the tour".

And although he probably says that in every city, we're pretty sure he actually meant it this time.

Calling all 90s fans!

TLC have dropped a new single Way Back, and the nostalgia is nearly too much

The song is from their upcoming album, which has yet to be named. This album is reported to be their last.

iHeartRadio premiered the track on yesterday, and the smooth, 90s vibes are strong. 

"It's been a long, long time coming," are the opening lyrics to the track, which seems pretty apt. 

The girl band turned to a Kickstarter campaign to fund the new album, raising over €405,041.00 for the project. 

"The album date is firm, June 30th is the release of the new TLC album that you made happen," reads a statement on the Kickstarter page. 

The band are also taking to social media, to ask fans what the album should be called.

There is nothing more awkward than making a fool of yourself in front of your idol, but imagine if you accidentally cause them a slight instance of bodily harm while you were at it? 

One American journalist accidentally did just that, after she slapped Nicole Richie during an interview.

The facepalm (literally) moment happened to showbiz reporter Cat Greenleaf of Talk Stoop.

The pair started chatting about what good news had occurred that weekend and Cat offered Nicole a high five after hearing about the lack of rain in LA. 

"I live in LA and I heard it's going to rain three times this week so that's pretty" replied Nicole, raising her palm for the high five. 

Unfortunately, the presenter didn't make contact with the celeb's palm, but managed to whack the Simple Life star in the face, sending her sunglasses flying.

 

A post shared by Nicole Richie (@nicolerichie) on

Cat was visibly cringing after the clumsy move, telling Nicole: "I'm so sorry… I'm notoriously clumsy." 

Luckily, the star saw the funny side, despite looking slightly shocked, saying: "I can see that, out of my left eye only."

We'd be cringing hard.

Three weeks after strike action began, Bus Éireann services are set to return to the roads.

 The Labour Court recommended 200 job cuts, with 120 among drivers.

The court also recommended a cut to earnings over €60,000.

National Bus and Rail Union general secretary Dermot O’Leary told the Labour Court that once a recommendation was granted, the pickets would be lifted, according to The Irish Times.

The NBRU is now considering the 17-page document of recommendations. 

The strike has caused chaos for commuters, particularly in rural areas of the country.
