Over the years, Disney has created many memorable characters, but the Disney Princesses are amongst the most iconic. After all, there’s a reason why Cinderella’s castle has been used as part of the company logo for years and is the centrepiece of the Disney theme parks too!

But whether you prefer the traditional princesses such as Cinderella and Snow White, or more modern heroines such as Frozen’s Elsa, or perhaps Merida from Brave, everyone has their own favourite Disney princess.

Research using Google search data to find out the most searched for princess in every country around the world! The study also revealed the world's most-loved princess- Cinderella!

Europe was largely split between one of the classic Disney princesses, Cinderella and a much more recent favourite, Elsa of Arendelle.

Tangled’s Rapunzel was also popular in countries such as Spain, Portugal and Finland, while Italy was one of just eight countries to prefer The Little Mermaid’s Ariel. 

For the countries which search data was available for, there was a fairly even split between our leading princesses, with Cinderella proving to be the most popular overall.

Belle from Beauty and the Beast took the top spot in seven countries here, more than in any other continent, with Ariel coming out top in five African nations.

The results in South America were perhaps the most surprising of all, with almost every country on the continent searching more for Rapunzel than any other Disney princess.

Who is your favourite Disney princess?

Recent research commissioned by Citrine Healthcare indicates a significant three in five of the adult population (63%) have felt self-conscious in public, due to an adverse skin condition.

Females are more likely to report that problem skin, like acne, has affected their confidence (63%), as against 56% of males.  And, worryingly, 71% of those aged 18-24 have suffered feelings of anxiety on account of their skin.

Problem skin is relatively common, and is frequently caused by hormonal factors, Sarah O'Leary, a Director at Citrine Healthcare says.  Dermatologists indicate that acne affects over 80% of the teenage population and lasts for 8-10 years on average.  Pregnancy and menopause can prompt renewed outbreaks too.

The new Irish survey showed over two thirds of the population suffer, or have suffered with, a skin condition.   50% say feeling self-conscious on account of the appearance of their skin has held them back, particularly females and young adults aged under 35.

Females were more likely than males to report being worried about people judging them, because of how they look (42% vs 34%). 

20% of females and 17% of male respondents avoided social activities because of poor skin, and 11% of males said skin problems stopped them making friends.  Playing sports, getting a part-time job, or participating fully in school or college can also be avoided by sufferers.

Sarah O'Leary of Citrine Healthcare says some people who no longer have acne, or never suffered, may think anxiety, lack of confidence, and limited social engagement are extreme reactions.  

“In fact, these are very real emotions that can severely affect individuals, and their development, especially young adults. Skin health is more than achieving a flawless complexion; it is about self-care and self-esteem.” 

Acne is the second most common skin condition after dermatitis, according to the research. Almost 40%, 2 in 5, in Ireland, have suffered with acne at some point in their lives.  Six in ten say over-the-counter (OTC) medications to treat acne were effective.

Sarah O'Leary says the research findings, especially the emotional stress revealed, underscores the importance of a proactive approach to skincare. 

“Improving acne is absolutely possible, with a skincare routine tailored to the person’s specific skin type and issues.  Pharmacists can suggest suitable remedies, and good advice is to stick to a couple of specialist acne products, use them consistently, and give them time to work. 

“There are no overnight miracles, but the majority of those who follow a simple topical regime for up to 12 weeks will see improvement and get breakouts under control.”

Washing your face just twice a day, and after sweating, is also advised; but never scrubbing, so as to avoid irritating acne-prone skin.  While, touching, picking or popping is also strictly off-limits, the experts at Citrine Healthcare say.

The Irish skincare company, launched in 2021, produces a specialist range of four OTC products to help manage the symptoms of acne prone skin. 

Triboclense Cleansing Gel and Ceboderm Moisturising Cream are for daily use, and, depending on the type of acne, Triacine Control, an exfoliating cream, and Benoxor Clear cream, which helps keep bacteria at bay, may be recommended for periodic use.

Pharmacy ranges for psoriasis, rosacea and dermatitis (eczema) are also produced by the west Dublin company.

Lydia Bright has revealed her ‘dreams have come true’ as she celebrates a very exciting move in her career.

The former The Only Way is Essex star has announced an exciting career change as she reveals the front cover of her very first children’s book, titled Mummy and Me.

Lydia headed to social media to open up about the ‘passion project’ and explained the meaningful story behind the book, as it is based around her own experience of being a single mum. 

Taking to Instagram, the 32-year-old posted a snap of the front cover of her book to her 1.2M followers. 

The cover depicts two elephants- a mum and daughter- sharing a hug with each other as they are dressed in matching yellow outfits. 

Lydia captioned the post, “A dream come true. After four years working on this passion project today, I can finally reveal the cover of my first children's book, ‘Mummy And Me', illustrated by Jojo Clinch”.

“I started this journey when I was facing motherhood as a single parent, I was a little lost and in need of a distraction. That is when I started writing”.

The former reality TV star continued, “I discovered my set-up was to be very similar to elephants in the wild. So, this became the foundation of creating a story for my future daughter so she could feel represented”.

“Like the journey of motherhood, Mummy And Me is filled with magic, adventure, and a little bit of chaos”.

“It shares the beautiful bond between a mother and her child and the love that comes from family (whatever that looks like) Thank you so much to Jojo @mysmallfindings for your gorgeous illustrations that truly bring the story to life”.

Lydia closed off by saying, “To my whole team, thank you for believing in me and for all your hard work. I am so proud of what we have created. To my followers, thank you for giving me this platform and following my journey”.

Many fans and famous faces headed to the comments to congratulate Lydia on her achievement. 

Former The Only Way is Essex star Jess Wright penned, “Aww congratulations”.

“Aww my girl we so proud of you. Can’t wait to read this to brody”, wrote TOWIE’s Georgia Kousoulou. 

Presenter Denise van Outen added, “This is amazing! Congratulations Lyds. Love you”.

Lydia is mum to a daughter named Loretta, whom she welcomed into the world in February 2020 with her ex-boyfriend Lee Cronin.

‘Night Time Talk with Niall Boylan’ is calling on employers and employees in Ireland to join the ‘Work Smart – Speak Out’ campaign, fighting back against workplace bullying and encouraging listeners to speak out. Ireland’s Classic Hits Radio has carried out a survey which revealed that over half (57%) of Irish workers have experienced bullying in the workplace.

Commenting on the survey results, Niall Boylan said: “No person should live in fear of going to work. No one should be forced into a position where they have to choose their job over their mental wellbeing. Unfortunately, this is the reality for so many people in Ireland who are victims of workplace bullying.”

“We are encouraging our listeners to share their stories and receive expert advice. Workplace bullying has become a widespread issue across all sectors of the workforce; administrative roles, hospitals, bus drivers, construction, kitchens, manufacturing and it needs to stop”, Niall continued.

In response to the bullying crisis in Ireland, Night Time Talk with Niall Boylan is set to host a four-show panel discussion on the issue. The four consecutive programmes will air from Monday, 6th – 9th November from 9pm. Over the four programmes, Niall will be hosting a panel of experts across multiple fields, including: Clinical Psychotherapist, Stephanie Regan; Michelle Moran, Employment Law Solicitor; Mary Cullen, Insight HR; Nicholas Patrick Nally volunteer with the Samaritans; John Kenny spiritual healer from Healing House; Anne Brannick Relationship Mentor; Sinead Brady Career and Coaching Psychologist and Relationship Mentor, Aoife Ryan.

Of those surveyed that stated they had been bullied in the work place:

  • Eight out of ten (81%) stated that the bullying happened during office hours
  • Of the 57% stating they had personally experienced bullying four out of every ten were aged between 46 – 60 years with one in ten aged between 26-34 and almost a third between (28%) aged 35 – 45
  • Three quarters stated that they dread going to work for fear of being bullied
  • Over two thirds (68%) of victims said nothing was done after they reported the incident to their HR department
  • One out of every five bullied admitted that they would call in sick rather than suffer workplace bullying
  • Over half of those surveyed reported sleep disturbance, depression, and anxiety as a result of being bullied in the workplace
  • Two out of every five victims of workplace bullying are forced to leave their job as a result of the bullying. Ireland’s Classic Hits Radio listener, ‘Siobhan’* experienced continuous bullying by a senior member of staff, forcing her to quit her job and pursue another career path.

“The toxic situation between myself and the other staff member had reached a point where the stress and fear was no longer worth the cost to my well-being”, Siobhan said.

“As the months passed, the emotional and psychological scars grew deeper. My family and friends began to witness a stark transformation in me as my confidence disappeared and I became a shell of my former self. I stopped socialising, couldn’t sleep and my work began to suffer. It was then that I recognised that I was in fact being bullied and it was time to take action. Escaping the situation wasn’t merely an escape from adversity; it was an empowering step towards reclaiming happiness, mental health and self-worth. Prioritising my well-being and accepting and rectifying the situation I was in is what led me to finally pursue my true passion. I now run my own business where I will never let my employees experience what I went through”, Siobhan continued.

Ireland’s Classic Hits Radio are leading the ‘Work Smart – Speak Out’ movement to protect workers against workplace bullying and encourage other employers to do the same. ‘Work Smart – Speak Out’ encourages victims and witnesses of bullying to have their voice heard and hopefully protect others. Participating employers are expected to work towards a safer working environment, making their employees safer and to implement a zero tolerance for bullying,

If you are a victim of workplace bullying and in need of expert advice or wish to share your story, you can contact the show by emailing niallboylanshow@classichits.ie or calling 0818 942 105. No one should have to suffer in silence.

Night Time Talk with Niall Boylan is broadcast every Monday through to Thursday on Ireland’s Classic Hits Radio from 9pm-1am, providing listeners with breakthrough stories from real people with real lives.
