A NEW range of popular beauty products are now available in the Rivergate Shopping Centre in Irvine.

Meggi Lashes have stormed the market in the UK since they were created by Meggi Morgan in 2020.

The founder said she was looking for a good quality, affordable, false eyelash - and decided to do something about it herself.

She started the business with a small £300 investment and it quickly became a hit.

Her lashes are now available across the UK - including in Irvine.

But the beauty product is available somewhere a little bit out of the ordinary.

Earlier this month Meggi Lashes installed a lashes vending machine in the Rivergate Shopping Centre.

It now means that those popping into the mall can pick up the company's products, which also include lipglosses and mascara, with ease.

The vending machine has been installed across from the public toilet at the entrance to the mall from the multi-storey car park.

The Irvine machine is the 40th to be installed across the UK, and the only current machine in Ayrshire. One has been installed since, in Aberdeen.

And after unveiling the latest machine in Irvine, business owner Meggi could not hide her delight.

She said: "We have just installed our 40th location all the way in Irvine, Rivergate.

"It's crazy to think two years ago I put my first vending machine in Bullring, and now we have 40.

"I can not express how grateful I am to have you guys; even if you're just spectating, it helps.

"The ones who show love, we appreciate you. Thank you for supporting, purchasing and growing with me as a brand."
