Mikayla has over 15 million followers across her social media channels and this has been labelled as a "big win" for the Irish beauty community.
Mikayla said: "I completly understand why for months people were begging me to try this brand. These products are good. They are super fu**ing good. Thank you to my Irish followers who were like begging me to try this.
