Grace Mongey celebrates some exciting news

Top Irish influencer Grace Mongey is celebrating – after reaching 100k followers on Instagram.

The mum-of-one admitted she is overwhelmed, after seeing her small blog turn into a fully fledged career.

When I started up my blog I was just a girl wanted to share makeup tips and talk about beauty products I loved! I always dreamt that one day I would make it my career! Today I reached a massive milestone! 100k followers! I wouldn’t be where I am today if it wasn’t for the amazing, supportive lovely followers I have who push and drive me each day to do better. Im so bloody proud of that 23 year old girl who set up a camera one day and started to film herself! It was the most nerve racking thing I’ve ever done! I didn’t want to tell anyone because I felt like I would be judged. I’ve tears in my eyes writing this because I’m so happy! I’m just a normal girl from Tallaght who decided to let the world in and share my life with you all! It took me 6 years to get to where I am today and it still feels like this is only the beginning! I’ve so many plans and I hope you will stick around for the journey! I promise to always stay true to myself and be the girl who just talks to you like a friend! You all mean so much to me! All I can say is thanks you! 100,000 is crazy!!!!! #100k #ThankYou #IAmSoGrateful #100kfollowers

The most thoughtful and beautiful gift! ?❤️? Chris walked in the door with 100 roses to congratulate me on hitting 100k followers!!!! ?? He has always been my biggest supporter!
