Not that there’s anything wrong with Wet ‘n’ Wild, I mean, everybody has purchased Wet ‘n’ Wild cosmetics at some point in their lives. For me, I was probably 14 and I was buying maroon frosted Wet ‘n’ Wild lipgloss from the drugstore.
Both ladies are the newest faces for Revlon and it’s both their first times acting as brand ambassadors for the makeup line. Clearly, they were a good choice because both ladies look fantastic.
She’s also sharing the campaign with Ricky Martin, who is a stunning and handsome man, but does he actually wear make-up? I mean, he’s gay sure, but that doesn’t mean he’s going to wear lipstick. That’s like a homeless person trying to sell me a kitchen remodel.
Regardless, I love looking at Ricky Martin’s face and Nicki Minaj’s colorful get-ups are always an eye-full so this new campaign is fine by me.
The duo were shot by famed photographer David LaChapelle and feature Ricky holding up a giant lipstick tube like a Viking while Nicki crouches low over a bright blue motorcycle. True to form, Nicki is wearing a hot pink dress, pink wig, tiara, and those infamous hot pink Nicki Minaj lips.
While her former co-star Kristen Cavallari has been busy ballroom dancing with other c-list celebs, and Audrina is not-busy watching her own show get cancelled, Lauren Conrad has been HUSTLING!

1) The Hair: Peter Savic created a classic chignon bun for her hair, "We wanted to make her an amazing movie star from the '40s, '50s, '60s; like Sophia Loren or Ava Gardner or Elizabeth Taylor. While most brides visit their stylist several times before the wedding to get that wedding up-do just right, Savic said, "I just created it that day."
2) The Headpiece: Kim wore a diamond encrusted headpiece on her big day, which friends were saying, "She looked very Armenian, like an Armenian princess." Some may think a headpiece is a little too much, but Savic thought it was just right, "She looked very polished. It was classic and tasteful yet exotic."
I’m looking at the Julia Roberts ads and wondering what the problem is, that’s just Julia Roberts face, don't they know everyone in Hollywood always glows like that?!

Kate Middleton aka The Duchess of Cambridge, looked absolutely flawless on her big day.
Rumor had it that Kate did her own makeup for the royal wedding and wanted to keep her Bridal look minimal so the Prince would “still recognize” her. But of course the Princess had her own glam squad for the big day.
For her hair, her longtime stylist James Pryce and Richard Ward of London’s Richard Ward salon gave her simple, yet elegant curls.
"Catherine was very involved in her chosen style and the bridal look was based on her own personal preference," Ward told People. "It was really a matter of getting a fine balance of feeling natural but also reflected the occasion."
Her half up, half down bridal look was called a "demi-chignon," which the salon defined as "an up-do style which combines a classic bridal look with a regal, couture finish."
Kate Middleton has decided to forgo using a makeup artist for her wedding, and when you look like Kate Middleton, I guess you can get away with it.
Middleton has had a series of private lessons with makeup artist Arabella Preston, and apparently, she is confident she can handle it.
"I heard that Arabella Preston was called in by a mutual friend of hers and Kate's," wedding planner Mark Niemierko tells People. "She's had about three or four lessons with Kate at her private flat in Chelsea and has also gone, very privately to Clarence House. Arabella was suppose to be coming on the day as well but now she isn't, because Kate's comfortable and confident in doing it herself."
Way to ensure job security, Kate. You might as well design your own wedding dress while you're at it. Kate's been known to keep things simple (aside from the whole marrying into royalty thing), and according to Niemierko, it's her attempt to "keep some normality" in her life.
Each offers women a way to experiment with their makeup and create as many looks as they want to, without breaking the bank!

Sparkle & Shine

Apply the dark brown shade in the crease and outer corner and smudge along top and bottom lash line. For a more dramatic look, use the black eye shadow to line and define top and bottom lashes.
* CHEEKS: Use the bronze blush on your cheeks for a beautiful warm glow.
* LIPS: Use the light pink lip color to create a sultry pout.
Old Hollywood Glamour
* EYES: Start by applying the lightest shade to highlight from lash line to brow bone. Apply the silver or gold on the lid. Smudge the black shadow along the upper lash line starting at the inside of the eye and gradually getting thicker towards the outer corner, winging up and out, to create a cat eye effect.
* CHEEKS: Use the pink blush for a soft flush of color.
* LIPS: Use the true red lip color to create Hollywood glamour. Dab the red on your lips using your fingertip for a natural just kissed look. Or, apply with a lip brush for a more dramatic red lip.
