I Love Jared Leto but I don’t Need Skincare From Him

First Brad Pit now Jared Leto! Jared Leto is launching a new “lifestyle brand” that’s called Twentynine Palms. One of the first launches from the brand will be a line of skincare.

I love me some Jared Leto! He will always be my Joker. So sorry about that if you hated him as Joker but I adored him. I also happen to love Thirty Seconds to Mars and remember seeing them for the first time in concert and fan-girling out at level ten thousand.

That being said…..I really don’t think we need expensive skincare from him. He’s qutoed as saying, “I’ve never been interested in beauty products, but I’m interested in the idea of taking care of ourselves in the most natural way possible.” Wait, Jared, this isn’t gonna turn into some weird Mila Kunis only shower every other month thing is it? I’m kidding and I guess I get what he means about wanting to ensure a line of products is as clean as possible. However, if you’re not interested in beauty why are you even doing this clean or not clean line of skincare?!??! That’s questionable, good Sir.

His new line of products will be housed in elegant violet-hued packaging that is environmentally friendly. From what I’ve seen prices range from $50-$100 which is considerably cheaper than Brad Pitt’s Le Domaine Skincare which starts at $100 and upwards to $385 per item.

But skincare is only the tip of the iceberg as Leto plans on releasing limited-edition home and design objects in collaboration with a rotating list of multidisciplinary creators. And fragrances that build on earthy aromatics with notes of smoky Japanese vetiver, eucalyptus, myrrh.

Honestly, it sounds incredibly pretentious and dare I say, “I’m a bored celebrity” eccentric. If you’re a Leto fan you know eccentricity is a specialty for him. I know, I sound like I’m hating but I’m really not. I just think the market is incredibly saturated and I do wonder who are the people jumping to buy skincare from Jared Leto and Brad Pitt.

Twentynine Palms will be launching officially soon.

Is it something that intrigues you?

About the Muse

Isabella MuseIsabella is just an average everyday geeky girl who doesn’t blend her eyeshadow correctly, wears too much blush, and hopes she never finds her holy grail products because she likes the thrill of the chase so much. Her mission is to bring you super honest reviews on makeup, skincare, fragrance and all things beauty. She’s in no way an expert on the topic and she sure as hell isn’t a super model. But she’s passionate about makeup and is seeking like-minded individuals that like pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, and ones that enjoy spending hundreds of dollars at Sephora without feeling buyer’s remorse. If you’re that person feel free to reach out and leave a comment or follow me on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Bloglovin‘.

    Oh lord…. Enough with the celebrity my and skin care lines! None of them are worth what they cost- I gotta admit I love the packaging for this line, I doubt anything in it is worth a third what it costs.

    And what is it with the men saying, mmm yah, I never cared much about taking care of my skin (but now that there’s bazillions of dollars in it for me) suddenly I am! Jest. Stahp.

    Twentynine palms just says unwashed Marines to me. Not a harbinger of effective skincare.

    The celebrity skin care market is so saturated right now! The packaging is beautiful though.

  • Frozendiva

    The packaging is reminiscent of Tom Ford – one of the bottles reminds me of the Black Orchid perfume bottle and another of the higher end fragrances. Maybe a slightly luxe vibe for less.

    The market is saturated with makeup and skincare. Don’t know if it will last more than a few months, plus his image has taken a few hits and people may.not be keen on the products.

    Requiem for a dream + what Swoozy said = big fat no. Part of what rubs me the wrong way is the access celebs have for any endeavor they wish to do. There are many people in the ‘little universe’ who have better ideas, better credentials, and far better knowledge. Yet those qualified persons usually get no chance. Does Brad Pitt need to put out a quasi-challenger to Caudalie? Didn’t think so. People with celebrity bucks can take the risk. Coppola spent a fortune and the wines are well respected. (If they haven’t been fire & smoke scourged) But the real work is done by the professionals behind the scenes. The figurehead gets the credit and the visibility and the noses, skincare specialists, true wine growers get virtually no recognition or credit.
