The #nomakeupselfie trend is continuing to grow, with the Irish Cancer Society confirming that donations have now reached a staggering €550,000.

The viral craze has spread across social networking sites like wildfire in recent days, with users making a donation and posting a fresh-faced selfie before nominating their friends to do the same.

Yesterday evening the Irish Cancer Society updated their Facebook page with a picture to celebrate the €440,000 landmark and in just a few hours that figure has increased again by €110,000.
