And while she makes it look like a breeze in her perfect pink dress, Jaime King assures us that she&#8217;s just like every other mom out there trying to figure it all out as she goes.<\/p>\n<p>We had the chance to pull up a chair and chat with Jaime at the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pull-ups.com\/en-us\/?WT.srch=1\" target=\"_blank\">Pull-Ups <\/a>#PottyPartnership launch party at Disneyland Resort to discuss this whole new way to potty train based on your child\u2019s unique personality, and to get the inside scoop on her exciting new projects.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Can you tell us about any of the funniest or silliest potty training moment you&#8217;ve had with James?<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\nThere really hasn\u2019t been anything crazy or wild other than the fact that he just gets extremely stoked when he goes on the potty. It\u2019s like the equivalent to me seeing the new <em>Star Wars<\/em> for the first time. He\u2019s just so proud and he builds up so much confidence. It\u2019s really kind of amazing to see such a tiny human understand and be aware of their body. When [your child] first comes out and they\u2019re in your arms and they\u2019re so reliant on you, and then you see them grow, change, and develop this personality &#8212; it\u2019s very beautiful.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Pull-Ups has a quiz to help you figure out your child\u2019s personality and determine a potty training plan. What kind of animal what was James?<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\nWhen we did the quiz he was a puppy, which means he\u2019s very advanced. He\u2019s ahead of his time, he\u2019s kind of mischievous, but he takes direction well. There\u2019s been moments where he\u2019s like, \u201cI don\u2019t want to wear Pull-Ups!\u201d He doesn\u2019t want to wear the Pull-Ups because he thinks that he\u2019s now been fully potty trained! He\u2019s that excited about it, and Pull-Ups has made [potty training] that enjoyable.<\/p>\n<div class=\"getty embed image\" style=\"background-color: #fff; display: inline-block; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; color: #a7a7a7; font-size: 11px; width: 100%; max-width: 594px;\">\n<div style=\"padding: 0; margin: 0; text-align: left;\"><a style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/520021328\" target=\"_blank\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"overflow: hidden; position: relative; height: 0; padding: 75.757576% 0 0 0; width: 100%;\"><iframe width=\"594\" height=\"450\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"\/\/embed.gettyimages.com\/embed\/520021328?et=Y0gvWPG7R0xoOZUivpEipw&amp;viewMoreLink=off&amp;sig=5aDuOkcK3zQeGZ4_f3bOA5KW7XVA9kie-0rvF_L7Psc=\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p style=\"margin: 0;\">\n<\/div>\n<p><em><strong>Were you nervous about potty training?

I looked on Amazon and there were all these books and I was like, \u201cI don\u2019t know\u2026Oh my gosh.\u201d When you have a child, you have no clue what you\u2019re doing. You really are walking around in the dark trying to feel for a light switcg. What I really love about [Pull-Ups] is that it\u2019s a free resource. You take a simple quiz and it gives you directions and that\u2019s that.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>You have a lot of exciting projects right now! You started your line with <a href=\"https:\/\/colourpop.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">ColourPop<\/a>. Why did you want to create a makeup line?<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\nI poured my whole heart and soul into [<a href=\"https:\/\/colourpop.com\/product-category\/collabs\/jaime-king\/\" target=\"_blank\">my line with ColourPop<\/a>], and what\u2019s amazing is that it sold out in two hours. It went live at 5:30, sold out by 7:30. I created this line because I really wanted a completely gender-fluid makeup line that was also made for every single race. I was getting really frustrated with seeing my girlfriends that have say really dark skin borrow a nude lipstick of mine, and it would disappear. Why should they have to go buy something different than what I buy &#8212; or anyone else? Bottom line: I am going to make a line where it has all the essentials.<\/p>\n<p><a style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/520021326\" target=\"_blank\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"getty embed image\" style=\"background-color: #fff; display: inline-block; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; color: #a7a7a7; font-size: 11px; width: 100%; max-width: 396px;\">\n<div style=\"overflow: hidden; position: relative; height: 0; padding: 150.000000% 0 0 0; width: 100%;\"><iframe width=\"396\" height=\"594\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"\/\/embed.gettyimages.com\/embed\/520021326?et=bg84IiaQRr53qzlLb9Wdrw&amp;viewMoreLink=off&amp;sig=JuayfrI0weC3km1ywY-bFGd3JVJ-B1GrTKna8HB0VJY=&amp;caption=true\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p style=\"margin: 0;\">\n<\/div>\n<p><em><strong>How did you make sure that this line would work for everyone?<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\nI had up to 25 different people of every race, every shade, every color, from Asian to Persian, to light-skinned to dark-skinned.

I was like, \u201cIf it doesn\u2019t look beautiful on everybody, it\u2019s gone.\u201d And it was a really powerful experience to see a company that was willing to stand behind me and make something that\u2019s so highly pigmented and that is so high-quality, and also, at the prices that I wanted.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>The line is also very accessible! Why was that important to you?<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\nI grew up not having a lot of money. I didn\u2019t get to go to department stores &#8212; I had Wet\u2019n\u2019Wild and that was what I got to buy. But [ColourPop] makes vegan, cruelty-free in a brilliant factory, high-quality products. And it\u2019s $5 for a lipstick. I remember a girlfriend of mine saying, \u201cAll other makeup is dead to me.\u201d You know? She only wears my lipstick.

I\u2019d wake up and be like, \u201cI had this idea for this contour and highlighting stick.\u201d (I wanted a contouring stick so that if you have dark skin it shows up &#8212; it doesn\u2019t fade or disappear. And if you wanted to make it lighter you could use Relev\u00e9 which is a lighter highlighting pen to make it lighter.) And then you can also use those contouring sticks on your cheeks and on your crease and you can use them as eyeliner. You can use them as an eyebrow pencil. So everything goes everywhere. And that\u2019s something I learned from Pat McGrath and all of these great makeup artists. Then I woke up and I was getting really frustrated with, \u201cDo I choose 75% shimmer or 25% shimmer? This kind of shimmer? That kind of shimmer?\u201d I was like \u201cugh.\u201d It was really frustrating because I didn\u2019t want to [worry about] how many shimmers vs. mattes and this and that. One day I woke up and I was like, \u201cOh my God. Is there any way to create a shimmer that has no color? But can be applied to any lipstick; Any eyeshadow; Any bronzer; Any blush and turn it into a shimmer from a matte?\u201d And I was like, but I want it to kinda look like there\u2019s color when it catches the light. And I want it to also be able to be worn alone. And they\u2019re like, \u201cUhhhhh.\u201d And we made it and that\u2019s the color Alchemy.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Why did you pick the name Alchemy?<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\nI named it Alchemy because alchemy is one of my favorite things &#8212; it\u2019s truly like magic. And when you see Alchemy on its own it\u2019s so beautiful. All of my friends have been calling me, they\u2019re like, \u201cIt\u2019s the only thing I wear&#8230;.I literally just put it on my eyes and it\u2019s the only thing that I need.\u201d Because every product is made to go everywhere on the face. I just want to make it easier for all of us because our world is so cluttered with emails and texts and social media and the day never ends and when are our work hours? When aren\u2019t our work hours? When do they stop? There\u2019s no boundaries anymore with anything. I just want to make people\u2019s lives easier.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>You also have a new baby clothing line coming out. What\u2019s special about this line?<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\nMy new baby line is with Gardner and the Gang, and I\u2019m really excited about it. My first partnership was with Sapling, and then I got the call that Oprah was buying my baby clothes [to gift] and I was like, \u201cWHAT?!&#8230;Oh my God this is so amazing!\u201d So I partnered with this amazing woman named Kristin [Nystrom] and we created the first completely genderfluid baby and kids line that\u2019s really rad. Where the sweatshirts can be a dress or a sweatshirt. They\u2019re all in these awesome colors &#8212; I\u2019m tired of all these rules like &#8220;Boys can\u2019t wear pink, girls can\u2019t wear blue.\u201d I\u2019m all about self love and so, the title of the collection is \u201cThe Lion\u2019s Heart.\u201d So there\u2019s for instance, a cat and a dog holding paws, and there\u2019s a thought bubble that says, \u201cWuv You.\u201d And then we have these rad sweatshirts that say \u201cLove You. Love You. Love You. Love You.\u201d And we created these really great baseball jackets that have half of the best friend heart on them (they\u2019re made for kids and adults &#8212; because all of my friends are like, \u201cHow do we get that?!\u201d) So we started creating more adult things as well. So you can wear it with your best friend, or wear it with your kid, or siblings can wear it&#8230; The whole collection is so beautiful and exquisite.<\/p>\n<p>xx, The FabFitFun Team<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":"She's a mommy of two (her youngest's Godmother is the Taylor Swift), an actress, and ...","author":114725,"featured_media":78472,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[260],"tags":[],"thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/static.fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/18123724\/Screen-Shot-2016-04-18-at-12.33.09-PM.png","thumbnail_url_middle_card":"https:\/\/static.fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/18123724\/Screen-Shot-2016-04-18-at-12.33.09-PM.png","formated_date":"April 18, 2016","category_name":"Life","category_icon":"https:\/\/d3vodd1ws13xud.cloudfront.net\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/10113832\/entertainment.svg","author_name":"Tasha Ball","trending":false,"sponsored":false,"random_color":"#7815ea","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78127"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/114725"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=78127"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78127\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/78472"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=78127"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=78127"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=78127"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
