As a self confessed magazine-aholic, Cosmopolitan magazine South Africa is definitely an informative digest in fashion, make up, events and of course updates in the latest world trends and a must have for any fun fearless female!
A friend of mine, Wiedaad Samsodien had invited me to join her in the Cosmopolitan Nails workshop in association with Revlon, me not being THAT into nail art I thought it was a good time to get with the program and see what all the fuss would be about.
We had used GPS to find the venue, and parked way down the road, the number was a bit tough to find, and eventually we found a quaint photography studio with (obvious) amazing lighting, chandeliers, an open bar along with Champagne, Chambord cocktails and an array of beverages along with sweet and savory canapés from DISH tantalizing our taste buds. Our table was filled with variety an array of Revlon nail vanishes, Revlon nail polish remover, bowl of water, nail phials, ear buds all the tools needed to panel beat our nails!
Cathy Lund – Cosmopolitan South Africa’s Editor had opened the event with a warm welcoming speech and rocking her Cosmopolitan Revlon red (which I think is Revlon seduce) nails on the evening. Chi-Chi nail artist and previous content editor for Mweb had demonstrated step by step how to accomplish the nail art design and how to vary them, and in no time we were all tuning in to our inner Da Vinci’s! Okay.. Maybe the helpful, extremely patient Revlon fairies who came around to everyone’s tables had a little bit to do with it teehee!) We also received a chart to demonstrate ombre nails – which I tried and loved! It was much easier than what I expected and with that magical quick dry in 60 second spray – I kissed my smudged nails goodbye forever! Home grown Cape Town sensation ShenFM performed live for the crowd and got the ladies swooning all evening! We all walked away with a fat goodie bag with Revlon products that would well last me for the rest of the year! Definitely an event not to Miss Ladies but for now, you will have to wait until next year!
