Beautiful Things My Mother Taught Me


Mom and me, circa 1979 Disclosure: This post is sponsored by CoverGirl. Mother’s Day is this Sunday and I’m so excited. Not just because Mr. Spoiled Pretty and my son, Westley, are treating me to a decadent brunch. But because it’s an opportunity to celebrate my hero, Andrea Stamps. I must admit that until two years ago, Mother’s Day was just another CONTINUE READING

Bath & Body Works 3-Wick Candles: 2 for $22


At Christmastime, I agonized over what to get my son's daycare teachers. There are 12 of them - and even though he has his two main teachers, they all have interaction with him and take excellent care of him. So I needed to buy 12 gifts to show my appreciation, without breaking the bank. $10 each seemed doable, except CONTINUE READING

IMAN Skin Tone Evener BB Creme SPF 15


As a beauty expert, I’m embarrassed by how late I am to the BB Cream party. In the past year, so many friends and colleagues have asked me about BB Creams—what’s the buzz, which brands are the best, etc. —and they would look at me funny when I admitted to not having tried BB Creams yet. I mean, they CONTINUE READING

CoverGirl Outlast Brilliant Shine Nail Gloss in Vio-last


I’m very fickle about my fingernails. Before I paint my nails or get them professionally did, I spend a inordinate amount of time pondering my polish options. I consider the season, recent trends, my wardrobe that week and anywhere special I might go. But despite all of this planning, I’m usually over my polish choice before it even dries.

My New Arm Candy: Rebecca Minkoff Swing Bag


After beauty products, handbags are my secondary addiction. But when it comes to arm candy, I have discriminating taste. For me, the perfect handbag seamlessly marries fashion with function, is handcrafted from high-quality materials, has really unique hardware and is classic but edgy - all at the same time. I don't like to carry the of-the-moment "it" bag. I CONTINUE READING

Barry Fletcher Hair Products Giveaway!!!

Posted on by daneen in Conditioner, Contest, Giveaway, Hair, Hair Styling, Shampoo | Leave a comment
hair+shower Barry Fletcher Hair Products Giveaway!!!Hey there! If you’re regular visitor to Spoiled Pretty, you know that I don’t waste time or money on shampoos and conditioners that merely cleanse and condition. My hair is dry, overprocessed and has some serious behavioral issues…so I expect more from my hair care products. I expect them to be miracle workers, which is why I’m such a big fan of Barry Fletcher. I love his Moisture Therapy Honeysuckle Moisturizing Shampoo and Moisture Therapy Revitalizing Conditioner so much that there’s always a back-up at the ready.

You know how I get when I love products this much…I give them away; Mama Spoiled Pretty taught me to share my toys. So get ready for a Spoiled Pretty giveaway, sponsored by Barry Fletcher.

One grand prize winner will receive:

barry fletcher Barry Fletcher Hair Products Giveaway!!!Moisture Therapy Honeysuckle Moisturizing Shampoo: Nourishes the hair with protein and pure biological extracts to moisturize and leave hair silky smooth and shiny. Natural humectants soothe the scalp rendering it moist, healthy and refreshed.

Moisture Therapy Revitalizing Conditioner: Helps to build elasticity and improve porosity. This revitalizing conditioner can be used on natural and chemically-treated hair. Leaves your hair silky and shiny.

Thick N Slick Custard: A naturally fresh, alcohol-free conditioning creme gel with super moisture and sheen. It has an exceptional blend of 100% natural extracts, Hawaiian white ginger, aloe vera, and flowers bountiful in natural lubricants.

Glo N Grow: A vitamin-enriched hair treatment that moistens the scalp to promote hair growth. It gives protection and super shine for use of hot tools.

Press N Curl Wax: This special blend of carrot oil, soybean oil and bees wax helps penetrate hair, adding moisture and protecting against pressing hot tools – rendering hair silky smooth with a long-lasting satin finish.

Memory Mist: Humidity resistant, gives curls memory, seals in moisture, holds style longer and leaves hair soft and shiny.

Silk N Shine: This vitamin enriched, non-aerosol, finishing gloss is lightweight, so there’s no build-up. And the formula contains no alcohol, so it doesn’t dry hair out. It seals in moisture and makes hair feel like silk.

Moisture Silk Mousse: The light, alcohol-free, foaming conditioning lotion provides the ultimate variety for any texture and style. Detangles hair prior blow drying, and minimizes frizzing when drying naturally.

One runner-up will win Moisture Therapy Honeysuckle Moisturizing Shampoo, Moisture Therapy Revitalizing Conditioner, Thick N Slick Custard, Press N Curl Wax, Memory Mist, and Silk N Shine.

I can’t wait to share these products with you. Don’t be fooled by the plain packaging…the products inside are absolutely amazing – and you’re going to love them!
