Up To My Eyes

Cathy comes home…

or those Greystonians who are surprised by the amount of hot out-of-towners who make their way to The Happy Pear, it’s worth noting that another hugely successful business around here has pretty much the entire nation under its spell.

When it comes to eyelashes, eyebrows, nails, waxing and beyond, Up To My Eyes on Theatre Lane is quite literally the hottest little beauty spot in town.

Its popularity is reflected not only in the fact that 80% of its busy schedule is made up of people travelling from all over the country to spend the day there – as they push that natural beauty all the way up to 11 – but there’s also the fact that some of Ireland’s biggest, and most beautiful stars, tend to wax lyrical about Up To My Eyes.

From Abi Titmus and Pippa O’Connor to Rosanna Davison and, eh, Brendan Courtney, Ireland’s beautiful people are all keen to give Up To My Eyes the perfectly-manicured thumbs-up.

Davison has raved about the Greystones salon when it comes to recommending those “doe eyes and luscious lashes“, stating that “those in the know are visiting the talented team at Up To My Eyes in Greystones to have last extensions professionally applied“. For beauty journalist Triona McCarthy, her scepticism about Up To My Eyes glowing reputation among the glitterati was soon torpedoed when she had her Mink eyelash extensions done there – “and I am now fully addicted. So many people have commented on them, and I think I look a lot like Kim Kardashian!”.

For GG’s future mistress, Georgia Salpa, being able to strut from photoshoot to photoshoot with no make-up and just Up To My Eyes lashes has been garnering all the right attention. “I wouldn’t be able to live without them now,” she says. “Thanks to Up To My Eyes for making my eyes look this good.”

The list goes on, each and every one of them singing the praises of Elaine McParland and her angelic crew.

Throw in the acclaimed Embrowdery (we think that’s where your eyebrows are weaved into a head-scarf, but, we could be wrong) and HD Brows (where tiny projectors in your eyebrows can screen High Definition movies on your forehead), and you’ve got yourself a unique little gem in the heart of Greystones.

Swoon!
