The sonic frequency moves Clarisonic's soft, gentle brush back and forth at more than 300 times per second, thoroughly clearing pores and skin surface. The Clarisonic Mia removes makeup six times better than traditional methods, clears pores and reduces the appearance of pore size, cleanses so thoroughly that skincare products absorb better, creates noticeably healthier looking skin.

This incredible value set ($15) is a perfect stocking stuffer, office gift or a personal treat.

Felix Rey Cosmetics Cases: How many makeup bags are so gorgeous that you could carry them as an evening clutch and be the chicest gal in the room? Not many…and I would wager that most of them come courtesy of Felix Rey, a sophisticated and ultra-feminine luxury brand of accessories founded by Lily Rafii Band and Sulaika Zarrouk. The cosmetics cases run the gamut in terms of size, style, print and price ($24-120) – so you’re sure to find the perfect present for that makeup-loving gal on your gift list. Leighton Meester, Hayden Panetierre, Hilary Duff, Penelope Cruz and Fergie are all fans of Felix Rey.

The brand's signature details (bows, leopard, and hardware - oh my!) are back - and better than ever. But what sets these handbags and accessories apart from previous collections is the razzle dazzle factor. Using sequins and metal mesh, co-founders Lily Rafii Band and Sulaika Zarrouk (above left) have fashioned impossibly chic accessories that seamlessly transition from day to night.

Spoiled Pretty Sneak Peek: Felix Rey for Target!

Target is partnering with two of my favorite handbag designers, Lily Band and Sulaika Zarrouk, to launch a limited-edition handbag collection - Felix Rey for Target.

This chic and incredibly-priced collection is the eighth handbag launch in a series of limited-time-only accessories at Target.

The Felix Rey for Target collection will be available at most Target stores nationwide and online at Target.com March 29 through June 14, 2009.

Felix Rey handbags have become a staple on the arms of celebrities, editors and industry insiders alike. Now, stylish women across the country can experience these affordable vibrant designs with the exclusive Felix Rey for Target collection. “Our collection offers whimsical and classic handbags for the fashion forward with a discerning eye,” says Band. “We were so excited to design a value-priced beach-inspired collection for Target!” says Zarrouk. “Our line combines form and functionality, and will take women from the boardroom to the beach in style.”

Inspired by the beach, the Felix Rey for Target collection includes clutches, totes and oversized bucket bags in lightweight canvas and straw, all perfect additions for a summer ensemble or day by the seaside. Gold hardware including shell detailing, studs and toggles, as well as patent and metallic trim add a sophisticated touch to the fanciful collection. Oversized ric-rac prints mimic the ocean, while sequin fish appliqués and coral raffia embroidery add sparkle and color.

The Felix Rey for Target collection ranges in price from $19.99 to $49.99, in comparison to their high-end line which can cost as much as $800.

Felix Rey’s signature bow and pyramid studs make the Emma cosmetic case a fashionable way to hold all of your travel necessities. The bag, which retails for $90, features:

In The Bag Summer Beauty Giveaway: Clutch

On a summer night, you don’t want to be schlepping a heavy handbag. A clutch is the perfect accessory to carry your beauty booty. But with a smaller bag, you must be careful not to cram. Your cell, keys, wallet and other basic necessities will take up a majority of your clutch’s empty space. So you need to be efficient with the cosmetics you add to your bag. What to carry in the clutch? Travel sized tools and multi-purpose products, of course!

It’s Friday. Thank heavens for that, right? And you know what that means - day five of our In The Bag Summer Beauty Giveaway Week!!! Spoiled Pretty is giving away Felix Rey’s deliciously chic Michelle Clutch. This bag is the ideal combination of elegant and earthy. It is crafted of oven straw with mirrored-leather bow detail and has a magnetic-snap closure front flap. And leave it to Felix Rey to put a surprise inside…the interior is lined in leopard print fabric! The bag also features a detachable wrist strap.


One reader will receive the Michelle Clutch, chock full of the following:

Cover Girl Lash Blast Mascara: My holy grail mascara gives you a blast of lush, volumized lashes! LashBlast's patented volume-boosting formula and patent-pending brush are designed to max-out each and every lash, leaving you with the ultimate big lash look.

Tarte Lock & Roll Creaseless Eyeshadow Duo: Say goodbye to cream shadows that crease & smudge. Whether it’s a hot day or you’re on a steamy date, this waterproof-shadow is sure to last! We’ve brought you one of our favorite makeup artist tricks for creaseproof cream shadow—two simple steps in one little wand.

Clean & Clear Oil Absorbing Sheets: These sheets soak up excess oil and remove shine from your face, without smudging makeup or leaving behind a residue. Use them anytime, anywhere to remove oil and shine throughout the day.

Goody Mosaic Mini Versa Comb: This 3-in-1 comb is small enough to fit in your purse, but large enough to maintain your style.

To enter, send an email to spoiledprettycontests@gmail.com. Be sure to include your full name. The subject line should read "Felix Rey Clutch Giveaway." The contest ends at midnight (EST) on Thursday, July 3rd. One winner will be chosen at random from among the entrants. On Friday, July 4th, I’m going to make some lucky lady’s Independence Day by proclaiming her the winner! Please, only one entry per person; duplicate entries will not increase your chances of winning. Contest is open to U.S. & Canadian residents only.

And be sure to check out the other bag giveaways. You can enter all of the giveaways, but you can only win once. Good luck!

Felix Rey Giveaway Winner Writes Back

Amber, winner of the Felix Rey Giveaway, emailed me to say thanks for her prize. Here's what she had to say:

So, I've been using my totally gorgeous cosmetics bag from Felix Rey this past week and it is absolutely fabulous. I cannot get over how perfect it is and how pretty the floral print is! It's bigger than a typical cosmetics bag which is PERFECT for me, because all of my beauty tools actually fit. Thank you so much for the amazing contest, and you tell Felix Rey or post on your blog that I am absolutely thrilled with my prize!!! The clear plastic-y outside material is perfect so I don't worry about staining the bag with makeup or getting it wet. Basically, it's just what I needed!

Felix Rey is available at shopbop.com, neimanmarus.com, saksfifthavenue.com, and bergdorfgoodman.com.
