Fall Beauty Forecast Class!
As a beauty expert, I've been enlisted by Skillshare to teach a class on - you guessed it - beauty!
The class, Fall Beauty Forecast, is now listed on the Skillshare website - but it is currently in 'Pilot' mode. This means that, before I set a date/time/location, I'm waiting to gauge interest in the course.
So if you're in the Philadelphia area and interested in attending, visit the page and click the eye icon. This lets me know that you want to learn - and will alert you once I've set the date.
Here's the class description:
Want a fresh look for fall? Class is in session for those who, while still sporting shorts and flip flops, want to get a jump start on the upcoming season.
It might seem far away now, but Autumn is just around the corner – prime time to start stocking up on the season’s essential beauty gear. In Fall Beauty Forecast, beauty expert Daneen Baird will share the fiercest fall beauty trends and introduce you to new must-haves - from cosmetics, skin care, hair care, bath and body, fragrance and tools.
Test drive these fabulous fall products before the temperature drops. They’re so hot, these products are sure to raise the mercury a few degrees.
If your makeup bag is so last season, secure your spot at the head of this class.
Note: The Fall Beauty Forecast class will culminate with a beauty basket raffle!
Based on the response to this first class, I might make teaching a regular thing. So stay tuned for more announcements. That is all for now. Class is dismissed.

Salon Rouge: Blown Away By My Blowout
While Salon Rouge isn't exactly in my neighborhood (it's located in Cherry Hill, NJ), I had such a wonderful experience that I would gladly cross state lines and pay the $3 bridge toll again for such sleek and chic hair.
Then Heather gave me a blowout that blew me away. It took almost no time at all, and she has a very gentle technique. My bangs were almost past my nose, so I asked her to shorten and thicken them up - and she trimmed them to perfection. Seriously, I can't remember the last time I was so happy with my bangs. Finally, she sprayed my hair with Bb.Shine before flat ironing to protect and add a polished finish.
If you're in the Greater Philadelphia/South Jersey area, I highly recommend you pay Salon Rouge a visit…and tell Heather that Spoiled Pretty says "hi."

If The Boot Fits: Tall Boots For Big Calves
For months, I've had a serious case of tall boot envy every time I see a chick on the street rocking a knee high boot. I, myself, am short with extra girthy Gastrocnemius muscles. So the thickest part of my lower leg falls in the spot that is usually the thinnest part of the boot.
Since September, I've been trolling shoe stores to find my Cinderella boot that will effortlessly slip over my monstrous calves - only to be dejected and embarrassed when even the roomiest boot won't work its way past my ankle. I even contemplated buying from online retailers like widewiths.com and aylaboots.com. But I'm the kind of girl who can't purchase clothes and shoes from the web; I'm hard to fit and need to try before buying.So I lucked out two weeks ago during a last ditch mission to Nordstrom's shoe department. I found these Steve Madden Intyce boots on sale ($129 down from $199) and they managed to slip on without the need for elbow grease.
Problem is that the only thing that would fit between my leg and the leather would be a pair of tights or leggings...certainly not a pair of pants or skinny jeans. So I took my new boots to Villa's Shoe Repair (266 S 19th Street in Philadelphia), a fab shoe repair shop a few blocks from my office. They stretched the boots and waterproofed them for less than $30. Plus, the helpful owner punched extra holes in the buckle - free of charge - to further accommodate my zaftig calves.
Thanks to Steve Madden and Villa's Shoe Repair, I can finally stop sipping the tall boot haterade.
NBC 10! Show Segment: Beauty Products You'll be Thankful For

Treat your lips to delicious new flavors that'll remind you of your favorite winter drinks. C.O. Bigelow's Mentha Cordials combine the high shine and breath-freshening benefits of Mentha Lip Shine with a host of new seasonal flavors: Hot Buttered Rum, Triple Hot Chocolate, Warm Spiced Cider and Vanilla Cream Eggnog.
June Jacobs Perfect Pumpkin Peeling Enzyme Masque, $78
This deliciously spicy, skin purifying pumpkin enzyme masque is a natural, gentle enzyme "peel" designed for home use. Gently digests and exfoliates dead skin cells and impurities as it delivers pumpkin’s botanical repair benefits into the skin. Leaves the skin cleansed, detoxified and silky smooth. Age-fighting anti-oxidants and vitamin A protect and silken the skin. Roughness retreats and dryness disappears.
June Jacobs Creamy Cranberry Cleanser, $44
This hydrating creamy cleanser provides moisture and nourishment to the skin during the cleansing process with a bouquet of fresh cranberry. Active antioxidants and nourishing botanicals soothe and protect from moisture loss leaving the skin revitalized. Completely water-soluble emulsion, rinses off easily, leaving the skin refreshed.
Philosophy Pumpkin Spice Muffin Shampoo, Shower Gel & Bubble Bath, $16
Philosophy Pumpkin Spice Muffin Shower Gel smells absolutely scrumptious. The ultra-rich formula cleanses skin and leaves it feeling soft and hydrated. Not only is the warm, gooey smell of pumpkin spice muffin appealing to the senses - according to scientific research, this aroma has been found to arouse men and women. It's a smell that's so irresistible, you'll lather, rinse, and definitely want to repeat.
Studio audience members received a gift bag that included a C.O. Bigelow Mentha Lip Cordial, and samples of the June Jacobs Pumpkin Peeling Enzyme Masque and Creamy Cranberry Cleanser...but I'm sweetening the deal for one lucky Spoiled Pretty reader. One of you will win ALL of the products!
To enter the giveaway, send an email to spoiledprettycontests@gmail.com. Be sure to include your full name and mailing address. The subject line should read "Thanksgiving Beauty Giveaway."
