Wet N Wild: Beauty Benefits
As some of you may know, Wet N Wild has a new more adult makeup line called “Beauty Benefits” and the website has finally been updated with new information about the line. This is a full line of cosmetics, which includes foundations, concealers, eyeshadows, lippies of all types and more.
This is what I consider to be Wet N Wild’s second foray into Mineral Makeup, since I can’t in good name consider their crappy excuse for mineral foundation as a true mineral foundation. From what I understand, this collection is priced a little higher than the normal WNW line, but it is still incredibly cheap for a drugstore line. Unfortunately for me, there are no places near where I live that carries this new line, so I have to go on what others say on Makeup Alley, and other beauty blogs.
Here is a description I found of the new line from Entrepreneur. Com:
A new collection of Lotus Marine Mineral infused color cosmetics to correct, protect and enhance natural beauty will be available next month. Wet N Wild Beauty Benefits contains lotus flower extract which offers anti-aging properties. Among the bevy of new products are Triple Fusion eyeshadow, Beauty Unblemished treatment concealer, Fresh Effects mineral foundation and Sheer Satin lip sheen with SPF 15.
This line is now found in select WalMarts and a couple of other retailers. You can visit Wet N Wild’s Beauty Benefits website at http://www.wnwbeautybenefits.com
Enjoy!
La Femme and Ben Nye… aka I’m an idiot
When I was still in college, I lived extremely to a theatre / costume shop that sold Ben Nye, La Femme and other theatrical makeup brands that many beauty bloggers are in love with right now. I, being a dumbass then did NOT pay any attention to those brands that were sitting literally right underneath my finger tips.
Now that I am no longer living anywhere near a costume shop, the only thing I can think about now is how much I want to try the La Femme and Ben Nye brands. While feeling like the idiot I am for not the goldmine I had just sitting before me for two freakin’ years. So now I am left drooling over all these beautiful swatches that are popping up everywhere on line, and I can’t do anything! **SOB** Anyway I plan on ordering some Ben Nye and La Femme from MakeupMania.com. They have some amazing prices, I just don’t know anything about their tax / shipping policies.
For those of you who do not know about these two brands, there are several videos on the internet, especially youtube that demonstrate all the wonderous things about these brands. Here are some links to blogs that have gone gaga over these products:
For swatches and pictures galore of the Ben Nye 12 eyeshadow palette that retails for around $45 head on over to PurseBuzz
For info on La Femme, especially the loose powders, some of which are perfect dupes for MAC pigments, check out this you tube video:
Behind the Scenes Look at Twilight the Movie
If there is one movie that that I am dying to see, it would be Twilight, which is the movie version of Stephenie Meyer’s hugely successful book of the same name. Imagine how utterly excited I was this afternoon when I came across this behind the scene video. I nearly peed myself in happiness (not really…. lol).
So I thought to share it with the rest of you! Feel the excitement…..

Fitness Journey: My Return to the Gym
Now that I am employed, I will begin going to the gym again. I am going to sign up for a year membership to a local gym that is very respected in my area. I am determined keep up with it, so I am hoping that the classes that are offered will keep me going. If not, all of the cardio machines have personal televisions so I can watch my fave shows while working out.
So wish me luck!
