Beauty with a great cause! This is the idea behind Fergie's newest project with Wet 'n' Wild which will benefit the amfAR foundation. Found out more.
Black Eyed Peas star Fergie teams up with Wet n Wild yet again.
If the first time, the collaboration was only a way for the star to
express herself through the Fergie for Wet 'n' Wild
nail polishes we've seen not so long ago, this time the diva
has other plans in mind. The global Wet 'n' Wild ambassador now
supports a good cause with her new project, the Perfect Pout V.I.
Pink lip colour. The new lipstick, a shimmery pink tone will be
retailing for $3.49 and about 50 cents from each product will go to
support the American Medical Foundation for AIDS research
(amfAR).
The star's desire for the project was inspired by the diva's
earlier charitable campaign: “For me, it was really important to
have a charitable component to my cosmetics line. I did the MAC
Viva Glam campaign [in 2008], and I was very inspired by the cause
and motivated to do something myself. Wet ‘n’ Wild has been
amazing, and we’ve really pushed this forward and embraced it with
open arms. I want to pay homage to MAC Viva Glam”, the diva told
WWD.
Despite her busy schedule, Fergie wants to popularize the new
project as soon as possible so she is planning to take full
advantage of the perks offered by technology by reaching out to her
652,186 fans on Twitter.
“We really wanted to include social media with this. We’ll select
three winners and feature the makeovers on live television and on
social media. [This cause is] very close to my heart, ”she stated.
Though she got off tours, she hasn't given up her active lifestyle
and still does a great deal of work in the comfort of her own
home.
The star's charitable efforts will be acknowledged on April 5 at
the third annual amfAR Inspiration Gala in Brazil with the amfAR
Award of Inspiration. The star plans to make new charitable
projects each year. The Fergie for Wet 'n' Wild products that will
benefit amfAR are said to change every year and it will surely be
interesting to see how the diva will handle all the new
responsibilities given the fact that she'll welcome bundle of joy
this September.
