A cancer charity on the Isle of Man has benefited from the latest craze sweeping social media.
Manx Cancer Help says it’s noticed a spike in donations over the last week thanks to the ‘no makeup selfie’ trend.
Women have been taking to Facebook and Twitter to post a picture of themselves barefaced, making a donation to charity and then nominating their friends to do the same.
Yesterday Cancer Research UK – which didn’t start the movement - reported over £2 million of donations within 48 hours.
Andrea Chambers is the chief executive of Manx Cancer Help – she says some people are choosing to donate locally:
