WOW Women Wednesday!!

Hello, Sassies! :-D

I'm so sorry for posting this so late, I've been having some IT problems, which is a bit of a challenge at the moment. But I really think this would be worth the wait!!

Wow, do I have something exciting to share with you today! Those of you who know me well, know that one of the things I love job, is empowering other women, and networking with like-minded ladies. Well, today's post is ALL about that!!

Towards the end of last year, I got this bright idea to do a fun project with a few ladies, who's network of clients will go hand in hand with each other. Between myself and my friend Andrea, we got the most perfect team together for a stylish and elegant photoshoot to use for marketing material, and at the same time, promote everyone else in the team. Everybody wins!! Everyone involved were young women, starting their own businesses, with one goal in common: To promote our businesses, and empower ourselves and each other on our journey to success. Freaking awesome bunch of ladies, let me tell you! Here, let me introduce them:

Model, Make-Up & Hair: Angelique Grobler from Composure Hair and Makeup Artistry

 Venue: The Hertford Country Hotel - Devon Venue

The Hertford Country Hotel is absolutely exquisite! It's a quick 15 minute drive from Fourways, towards Lanseria airport. Once you enter their premises, it feels like you're 100's of kilometers away from the noise and stress of South-Africa's biggest city. I could actually see myself going there every Sunday with a book, just to escape the buzz of the crazy busy Jozi vibes. Ahhhh, bliss!

Let's get to the bragging, shall we? Hehehe. I met Angelique at her day-time job, where she teaches makeup classes, and did here nails at work. (Yep, you can also get me to do your nails at work!!) The theme here was very soft, delicate and elegant, so I decided to do a nude base, with white lace stamping. Here, let me show you. :-) 

How gorgeous, right? And with that stunning henna design by the talented Tineesha - wow!! I really love it! For the mani, I used natural tips with an Acrygel overlay, over that we did a nude base with Planet Gel Polish's brownish gel polish. I love this colour, and so do most of my clients. It's a super popular color and if you don't have it in your collection yet, I suggest you get it! ASAP!

I then stamped with white Revlon ColorStay Gel Envy, and a born pretty store stamping plate. I just LOVE bornpretty's stamping plates. They work like a charm! When the stamping was done, I sealed it all in with Planet Nails's Gel Polish Top Coat (which I loooooooove, by the way).

Here's a look at some more pictures. :-D I'll share ALL of them on my Facebook page again in a few weeks.




So, honeys.. On that note, I'm going to say Happy International Women's day to ALL you fabulous ladies out there! Chat again soon!

xoxo
Sassy Sam
