“Fergie’s approach to beauty and style is an ideal representation of our brand. She has the unique ability to go from hip, edgy and sexy to red-carpet glamorous. Her versatility and range is perfectly aligned with Wet n Wild,” said Bill George, president and COO of Markwins Beauty Products.
Other advertising and partnership ventures Markwins will embark on in the coming year will be a robust advertising plan, quadrupling its national print advertising budget to feature a minimum of four FSIs (free-standing inserts) in publications and a national television campaign with leading Spanish-language network Univsion, according to the company.
