Mally Roncal
Biography
Celebrity makeup artist Mally Roncal's love affair with all things ‘gorgois' started as a young girl in upstate New York, experimenting with makeup on her mother. Inspired by her mom's incredible beauty and career, Mally initially pursued a pre-med degree, but the pull of her first love — makeup — proved too strong. She moved to Manhattan and got her start at the Barneys New York Shiseido makeup counter and working on private clients. Her passion for art, color, and design — along with her magnetic personality — helped her become one of the industry's most dynamic, in-demand talents For a decade, Mally globetrotted doing makeup for some of the most fab faces in the world, including Angelina Jolie, Beyoncé, Celine Dion, Heidi Klum, JLo, LeeAnn Womack, Mary J. Blige, and Rihanna. Renowned for her ability to make her clients look and feel beautiful, Mally began sharing her advice in the pages of top magazines and on shows like Oprah, The Today Show, Rachael Ray, and The View. Always true to her roots, Mally made it her mission to empower women everywhere to celebrate the differences that make them amazing. Using her inside knowledge of all the tricks of the trade and driven by her frustration with so-called translucent powders that show up in paparazzi flashes, and lipsticks, concealers, blushes, and bronzers that fade all too fast — she was inspired to launch Mally Beauty: A collection of over 1,000 user-friendly, multitasking products that truly stay put all day. Created for the real woman who doesn't have the time (or glam squad) to touch up her makeup midday, each high-performance product was developed to deliver ‘gorgois' results. As a wife, mother of three, makeup maven, and entrepreneur, Mally isn't just the brand founder, she's Mally Beauty's biggest fan.
