Oh. My. Gosh. You literally could not have more perfect timing. I've been dancing more almost 9 years now, but this is about to be my first Oireachtas. (For solos, I went once before for set dance) I'm really excited but also nervous. Definitely going to watch!!! EDIT: Ooh, I'd also just like to mention about the "numbers aren't everything" tip? That's so true! I remember the first competition I did toes in, where I hit all of the toes and I just walked off the stage *beaming* because I was just so excited. And I didn't place, but I didn't really care because oh my gosh I hit the toes! XD
Aww! That's so exciting! I'm so glad I got it up in time!! You're going to do great! Good luck! Just remember, believe in yourself. That's the most important thing! 💗
This video was sooo incredibly helpful!♡ Your Irish Dance content is always on point! I love your Christmas background and that Tsum Tsum phone charger is adorable!!😍😍
Oh, how exciting! Wish you lots of luck! I'd say to stay close to your family and friends. It can get pretty crazy and overwhelming so staying with your crew can help make it not so intimidating. Go to bed early, stay stretched out and don't go too crazy when practicing beforehand. Be plenty warmed up but don't risk injury. And have a ton of fun!!! 💗
I did my first oireachtas this year at the grand old age of 28 😂 (I've been dancing since I was 6) and this video really helped! To top it off I qualified. Love your Irish dance videos!
Sure! I would stick with Revlon. They're comfortable and don't have a weird smell or taste. Perhaps in Bare Affair or Sassy Mauve? They're nice neutrals that stand out without being too intense. Take a peek online and let me know if that's the kind of shade you're looking for. If not, come back and I can recommend others! 😘
Thank you so much! Christmas is clearly my favorite time of year. lol Competing was always stressful, that's for sure! But getting to make new friends in the process was the best part. 😊
@@caitb Mine too! Aww, that's always great! I've uploaded a new tutorial recently. I'm trying to get back into it and would really appreciate it if you had the chance to check it out. Thanks Cait!
okay this is really helping me since I'm doing solos for the first time this year, thank you so much!!! last year I was first for trad sets but I still wish I had watched this sooner
One of my FAVE lip combos at the moment! It's Maybelline Truffle Tease topped with Butter London gloss in First Kiss! I feature it in Monday's video!! 😘
I just qualified for Oireachtas a few months ago. I'm super nervous because my Oireachtas is in 2 weeks! Is a recall likely for me? I have been dancing for seven years, and working really hard lately, but this is my first O.
In 2018 I actually won the orireachtas. I was 9 and I did only do trad set but I won first over all on my first oireachtas over all. In 2019 I was in open But I did not place.
Which dance do you feel the most confident in? ☘
Slip jig! My favorite haha
@@niamhomega6912 I always loved slip jig!
Definitely my Slip Jig!
@@happilyeverhope Wow! Slip jig is popular!!

Any advice to somebody (me) who is going to Oireachtas for the first time? I’m doing trad and teams this year.

Do you have a lipstick recommendation for Oireachtas for my 12 year old who dislikes makeup? (blond, blue eyes, fair skin) Thanks!

Love your festive background! I used to do ballet when I was younger, but I can't ever imagine competing! You do so well :)
