The cleverly-packaged Laura Geller Beauty X Wheel of Fortune collection is available online and features Spackle Skin Perfecting Primer ($36), Face the Wheel Blush Palette ($49), Prizewinning Eyes Shadow Palette ($45), Modern Classic Cream Lipstick in Big Money Red ($21), Kajal Longwear Liner in Glitz and Glam ($22) and a Dual-Ended Blush and Bronzer Precision Brush ($21). Per People, though each item was designed to destigmatize aging, they serve the beauty needs of all.
"They brought it to me and asked, 'What do you think of this?' And I absolutely loved it," White told People. "It's just so cute and it works so well. The eyeliner you can use day or night— the color works for everyone. I'm still learning, of course, because this is a new venture. Hopefully, this is the start of something big."
White specifically put over the red lipstick— a staple of her on-air look.
"I feel like we all need a red lipstick in our life. To me, it's the perfect one," she said. "I think it works with a lot of skin tones. I think it's perfect for everyone."
She also sees the products as practical for life away from television cameras.
"I have worn heavy makeup [on air] for so many years. When I'm not working, it's kind of nice to not have to wear full makeup," she added. "I just feel more natural when I'm not working and wearing heavy makeup. I'm not complaining about it, by the way. I like to be glam. Heavy makeup is good, so is light makeup."
Gellar lauded White as an inspiration when talking to People about the partnership.
"She's always somebody that I've looked up to," Gellar said. "She's aging gracefully and beautifully. She is so strong and such a loving mother. To me that is pure grace and strength. That's how I would depict her, pure grace. It's the best word. She's just a real lady with a lot of strength."
