#WarOnWrinklesWednesday - Polishing Peel

Hey babes!

I hope you've all been having an amazing week so far! Today I want to share another one of my journeys with you. I'm an ambassador for a company who distributes THE most amazing health and beauty products, and I'd like to share some of my favorite products with you.

With more than 250 products, ranging from Vitamins and supplements, to skincare and make up, I have tons to share with you. So the members of Sassy VIP group on Facebook would know that I had a massive shock last week, when I realized I have a few unwelcome visitors on my face... And for the first time, it was WRINKLES, not pimples. What? Woah! Stop the bus right there! People, I'm only 31, and besides... Have YOU ever seen a mermaid with wrinkles? I think NOT ladies. They had to go!!! So, last week in my group, I declared my #WarOnWrinkles on facebook live.

 Today I posted my 1 week progress selfie, and I was so amazed by the results, I decided to tell all of you about it too!

My first weapon in my war against wrinkles, is the Polishing Peel. It's a creamy, nonabrasive formula, clinically proven to be equivalent to a professional microdermabrasion treatment. That's damn powerful!!! And... It's all natural ingredients!

One of the key ingredients in the Polishing Peel is pumpkin enzymes, which immediately works to resurface and smooth skin by dissolving built up dead and damaged skin cells, that make your skin appear old and wrinkled. That's EXACTLY what I need! By exfoliating regularly, your skin will actually appear more radiant and youthful, and it will help your antiaging products penetrate your skin easier. Whoop whoop. Double WIN!! The other key ingredient, Bentonite clay, a natural clay derived from volcanic ash, acts as a magnet to remove dulling cells and toxins.

At the same time, you don't want to exfoliate too much! By over exfoliating, you're removing the only protective barrier your skin has against everyday environmental toxins, sun exposure etc. It is advised to use the Polishing Peel 3 times in the first week, then twice a week thereafter to maintain your polished, youthful, radiant results. I've been using it for a week now, and I am absolutely blown away by the results.

Here, let me show you. The first picture was taken last week, before the first treatment, and the after pictures were taken yesterday, after the third treatment for the week.

I don't know about you, but I am absolutely in awe of what this product has done for me in just one week!! If you'd like to get more details or order yours, please join my VIP group on Facebook. (PS: There's a competition happening there right now!) CLICK HERE.

I could see a visible difference after the second use, but I waited till after the third use to take another pictuer. I never imagined it would be THIS awesome! I love how it instantly smooths your skin, leaving it feeling and looking absolutely beautiful and healthy. I SUPER LOVE this product! I can't wait to see how amazing my skin will be after the first month. Whoop whoop!

That's all from me for now, Check my LIVE video tonight at 7 in the VIP group, to see what the second AMAZING weapon is in my #WarOnWrinkles.

Toodles

Classic Nude & Delicate Lace

Hey babes! :-D

Wow, am I happy to be back!! :-D I hope you all had a MAGICAL festive season, and that you're ready to ROCK 2017. Whoop whoop!! I truly wish every single one of my readers the BEST YEAR EVER.

Today I have a very feminine and delicate manicure to share with you. A photographer sent me the picture for a shoot we're planning in March where I'll be doing the nails. I immediately fell in love when I saw it. I posted it online saying I want to do these for someone, and my insanely beautiful client Pam grabbed the opportunity. :-D Yay!!! Thanks Pam. Much love for you!!

We started off with natural tips and one thin layer of acrylic. When that was done, I applied two thin coats of Planet Nails Gel Polish in "nude". I absolutely love this gel polish. The colour is AMAZING (I literally fall in love with it every single time I work with it), the consistency is great, and it lasts for 3 to 4 weeks. Brilliant! We decided to do and accent nail on the middle finger, and used White Planet Nails Gel Polish for that one. Two thin coats ensure perfect opacity. :-)

Once the gel was done, I stamped with Revlon ColorStay "Sure Thing" and a Born Pretty Stamping plate, coded BP02. When we were done with that, I sealed it all in with Planet Nails UV Glaze, and added a silver diamond shaped rhinestone on the middle (accent) finger.


What do you think of these? I REALLY like the delicate and classic feel of this manicure. Something that I could've improved on, though, is the cleaning of the white polish from the stamping. Other than that, I think I'm going to be bold and call it PERFECTION!! *Bows, drops mic*


Till next time beauties - Stay Sassy!!

Butterfly Kisses

Hello beauties :-)

How are you all doing today? Can you even BELIEVE it's the 6th of December already?? INSANITY, I tell you!!

Today's mani was done for such a sweet client. She was a bride's maid at her sister's wedding, and I had the honor of doing her, the bride's and the bride's moms nails last week. What a stunning family!

Anyway.. We started off with a gorgeous mint gel polish from Planet Nails. I love their gel polishes. The colors are beautiful, and they apply like a charm. For this mint, we did 3 layers to build into a beautiful opaque mint.

Then, using a Born Pretty stamping plate, and Revlon Gel Envy "Sure Thing" (510) to stamp this beautiful delicate little butterfly.


Okay so I might have gone a bit overboard with the cuticle oil. Haha. So you really have to look to see the butterflies through all the shine.

Overall, I absolutely LOVE how this mani turned out. At first she wanted a hand painted flower on each accent finger, but when she saw the stamping plates. Well, everyone knows what I mean. LOL. Stamping for the win - ALWAYS!

Are YOUR nails and tootsies summer ready yet? What are you waiting for? Book your mani NOW, spots are filling up quite fast, especially after the 15th. :-)

Have a STUNNING Tuesday, babes. Lots of love.


Stay Sassy,

Owl you need is a STUNNING graphic designer.

Hey babes! :-D

Oooh, I have another awesome mani to share with you. Yay! At the same time, I would love to introduce you to my AMAZING design fairy, Ceri Carey from C3 Designs, who's the proud owner of this set of Sassy In The City nails.

Just a very quick few details of the mani, then we're focusing on this awesome power woman!

So, a while ago I did another mani, where the client wanted a VERY specific dark grey, which I didn't have. So, we decided that I should just mix my own colour. LOL. I used Tip Top Nails "Black Forest" and Tip Top Nails "Cream Puff" to create the colour. I had spares of both of these. Yay!

I painted two coats of this "Black Forest/Cream Puff" polish on all but the ring finger. I then sponged Morgan Taylor "Fame Game" Holo glitter on the ring finger nail. Ohhhh my GOODNESS! I love this polish. Well, it's a holo, which already says it all.

I then used Born Pretty silver stamping polish and a Born Pretty stamping plate to stamp the cutest little owls, and the full nail design on the same plate. :-) And the finished product..... Stunning!

(PS: Ceri might be a tiny bit obsessed with owls)


So.. Right on to the MAIN reason we're here. :-D The funky, crazy, passionate, loving, totally rockstar Ceri Carey. Here have a looksy (she might kill me, coz I'm still awaiting permission to actually use this stolen picture), how freakin SASSY is this chick???


I absolutely love her to BITS! What I love even more (sorry Ceri, but the love is VERY strong for this one...), is my super stunning business cards she designed for me. Here, have a look!

Front:

Back: 


RIGHT???? Way too awesome. I absolutely ADORE everything about it.

I asked Ceri how she's so amazing at what she does, why she started doing it, and what rocks her world with regards to her job.
Well, her passion DEFINITELY shows in her work.

You can find Ceri on Facebook, by visiting her facebook page. Or you can give her a call on 061 444 8253 or pop her an e-mail at ceri@c3designs.co.za.

So ladies, if you need an AMAZING graphic designer who totally gets you, and who invests so much love and energy in her work, please support this awesome momtrepreneur. I bet you, you'll love her and the work she does for you as much as I do!



Till next time - Stay Sassy!
