New and Exclusive Limited Edition Collection: MALLYWOOD at Ulta

What a wonderfully fun Limited Edition collection from the delightfully charismatic make up artist to the stars, Mally Roncal. Mally has made it easy for us to look fresh faced and glowing by using these four products below.

Welcome to Mallywood! This is the place where all things are fun, sassy, gorgois and of course… PINK! The new Mallywood Collection will make you feel and look like a Hollywood star. 

Inspired by Mally’s life as a celebrity makeup artist, the new collection infuses her knowledge, expertise, and skills into every product, allowing all Mallynistas to achieve the perfois red carpet glam look!



Each item in the collection truly embodies Mally’s persona- dazzling, bold, and vivacious. In a sea of black compacts, the pop of pink packaging stands out amongst the rest. 


Available exclusively at Ulta, the Mallywood Collection includes:

Mallywood Eyeshadow Palette: This perfect mix of shades combines velvety smooth texture pops of color with everyday shimmer, glitter, and mattes for a fun-take on Mally’s hero Muted Muse palette. Create any number of looks and go as bold with color as you dare!

MALLY TIP: Starting with a clean lid, use an Eyeshadow brush and take the shadow of your choice and lightly dust onto your lid. Blend shadow from lash line to crease. To create a look using more than one eye shadow shade, apply the lightest shade directly onto your lid. Then, take the deeper shade and apply it to your lash line and crease. Blend to soften any harsh lines.

PRICE: $29

Smoky Mama! Mascara: This must-have mascara is essential for creating Mally’s signature no-fuss natural smoky eye. Teeny, tiny bristles reach every lash, root to tip, and the soft, black formula blends out easily for an effortless look.

MALLY TIP: Apply on the top lash line as usual. As you apply to your bottom lashes, gently press the wand softly from side to side and barely touch the skin beneath them.

PRICE: $20

"You know that amazing look you get the next morning when you accidentally sleep in your makeup? (I know, you would NEVER do that!) As a celebrity makeup artist, I have always been known to create my own products on set to create the look that I want. It was always so hard to replicate that smoky look and make it look believable. I created a way with something you would never expect: Mallywood Smoky Mama! Mascara! My secret is to take a regular mascara wand and trim the bristles down so far that you could barely see them." – Mally

Wazza Wassup! Ombre Highlighting Trio: This ombre palette will help you create the perfect, streak-free highlight for a flawless and natural look with every use. Each palette includes: Opaque Cream Soft Gold Highlight, Mid-Tone Champagne Highlight, Intense Silver Pop Highlight.

MALLY TIP: First, take the creamy low level shimmer and apply it on your cheekbones and anywhere you want a natural glow. Next, take the medium highlight and apply that on top of the cream. Finally, take the strong pop and tap that on the highest points of the ombré.

PRICE: $32

"How do you create a truly natural highlight like you just "woke up like this?" and say "Wazza wazzup!?" like my daughters do? I call it the Mallywood Wazza Wazzup! Ombre Highlighting Trio and it's super easy to build this modern look to lift the face and create a dewy complexion!" – Mally

Mallywood Highlighting Blush: Mally’s go-to blush- this soft pink blush and highlighter in one provides a buildable flush of color with iridescent shimmer. The compact’s unique “wave” pressing technology allows for all shades to blend seamlessly together, creating one perfect, universal tone.

MALLY TIP: Swirl your brush all over the highlighting blush and apply from the apples of your cheek to the highest point of your face.

PRICE: $28

All available exclusively at Ulta April 2018

A Favorite of Mine: Parisian Cult Product Collosol

Are you a fan of Collosol? I am in LOVE with this product. It leaves my skin looking both radiant and super clean. I can't get enough of it. I would bathe in it, if possible.

If you are a fan of Westworld as I am – I have to admit last Sunday’s episode left me feeling bemused.

One thing I know for sure is their skin looked clean and radiant! Westworld makeup artist Rachel Hoke has been using Parisian cult product Collosol everyday on set.

Collosol has been a cast favorite on Westworld season 2. The shows shooting locations often contain elements such as dirt, wind, heat along with character makeup. Collosol has been the product in the makeup trailer that the cast asks for at the beginning day for makeup prep along with the end of the day for clean up. Evan Rachel Wood and Thandie Newton use the product every day they work. It’s a perfect cleanser for mid day makeup removal for touch ups.”




So now is the daughter a host too? If is she is perhaps all the hosts have made a recent trip to Paris to for skin programming… I guarantee it is not only a memory!

Get The Look: Lili Reinhart's Tresses for the 2018 Met Gala

The looks at the 2018 Met Gala are starting to pop up on my Instagram feed so I will share as the information comes in. I love this gala as it is always creative and everyone involved gets to have fun with their hair, makeup, wardrobe, shoes, etc. 

Celebrity hairstylist Bobby Eliot  (who posted a beautiful picture of all of the products mentioned within this article on his IG feed, pictured below) used Leonor Greyl hair products to style Riverdale actress Lili Reinhart for the 2018 Met Gala.



The Inspiration
The inspiration for Lili’s hair was soft and ethereal.  Lili is wearing an amazing H&M gown with a beautiful dramatic train, and I wanted the hair to have an effortless feel. The gown is off the shoulders, and I didn’t want any hair to distract from the silhouette.”

The How-To
“We decided on a swept-back, textured look tied up in an effortless knot.”

“We started with clean, damp hair, and I applied Leonor Greyl Mousse au Lotus Volumatriceall over her hair, roots to ends.”

“Then I sprayed on Leonor Greyl Condition Naturelle for heat protection and blew-dry her hair, using the Leonor Greyl Natural Board Bristle Brush to smooth out her ends and my fingers to create lift at the root.”

Once her hair was completely dry, I misted her whole head with Leonor Greyl Lacque Souple Hairspray to give the hair hold while I used a Harry Josh Pro Tools 1" Curling Iron to create a soft bend in the hair.”

“I swept all of her hair back away from her face, then used my fingers to run Leonor Greyl Eclat Naturel Crème through her hair to create a little definition.”

“I created a knot, secured with French pins, and used a pump of Leonor Greyl Serum de Soie Sublimateur mixed with a pea-sized amount of Baume Bois De Rose to separate some pieces with my fingers. 

“I finished the look by misting Lili’s updo with Leonor Greyl Laque Souple Hairspray.”

Leonor Greyl products are available at https://www.leonorgreyl-usa.com/.

Moscow Mule: The New Fragrance from Juliette has a gun

Inspired by the famous Moscow Mule cocktail, creator Romano Ricci, created his new fragrance with two compositions that associate ginger with copper. These two elements are featured not only in the ad campaign by using a ginger haired model, but also the color copper in both the logo and top portion of the bottle itself as the cocktail is traditionally served within copper mugs.
