Cosmetics 101


Drugstore finds have always been a staple in many a girl's makeup collection.

One of the best drugstore cosmetics with the best value fort the dollar has been (for years) Wet n Wild.


For the sake of the "basics", let's just say tha Wet n Wild [WnW] cosmetics have been and will be the cosmetic of choice and recommendation of Back to Basics 101 [B2B101] from this point forward.


Wet n Wild aka WnW has products for every facet of the body: eyes, lips, face, nails, body...they even sell accessories. The best part about WnW is the convenience and availability of WnW in so many places and cities. Walmart, Walgreens, CVS--these are just the obvious locations, but supermarkets are on the list of total convenience too. In addition, WnW is a generous provider of coupons in magazines, etc. WnW has the most generous coupons that I have seen (ex: $5.00 off a $10.00 purchase-thats 50% off!) especially considering the value for each item.


Something else that w2e appreciate about WnW is the low key marketing and advertising they do. They don't have all of these expensive-high profile commercials with actresses and well known faces in order to get you to buy. The value, quality and accessibility is what keeps their customers returning. Thank you Wet n Wild! B2B101 is a fan of companies who don't make us as consumers fit the bill for high priced marketing campaigns! We intend here to get the word out--as WnW deserves--the good ol'fashioned way--by earning it!


Keep an eye out for the old school cosmetic that we have been enjoying for so many years. Amongst other old school contenders, WnW is in a 21st century league of their own!
