Celebrity Makeup Artist, Mally Roncal has created a product you will love.

Poreless Face Defender is a new technology that imparts a beautiful poreless look to your skin. It  feels wonderful and looks completely natural. It also comes with a sponge that is very user friendly.

This is a product sold exclusively at  www.qvc.com. Search: Mally Beauty. The product is called Poreless Defender with Sponge.

I personally use this product, and as an HD-TV makeup artist I’m so delighted with the soft natural look my clients have on tv.  Bye Bye powder !  If you’re looking for that soft poreless look, you might want to give this a try.  It’s colorless, and great for men as well.

Apply your makeup, as usual, and  lightly sponge over your face with Poreless Defender as your final step. Whether inside ,outside, day ,or night you will have a flawless, enviable look from season to season….all year long.

Everyone is so busy these days, and often forgets or ignores a very important element of their skin care regime.

No more excuses! If you have 15 minutes, this unique user friendly mask created by myfaceworks, has a solution for you.

These individually packaged fabric masks with various blends of just the right ingredients, and proper fabric, will address your individual skincare needs providing either maintenance, prevention, or repair.

I personally chose to try the “I Need To Bring Out My Youth” facial mask with antioxidants, and anti-aging ingredients, and the “I Need To Be Firm” facial mask that lifts, smoothes, and helps with puffiness. My skin looked and felt great after each mask, and the fresh glow, lift, and tone of my skin was really impressive!

myfaceworks masks are fun to use with no mess and individually packaged, making them perfect for travel. Most important, their ingredients go right to work.

Makeup artistry is an interesting topic since it’s very subjective. Of course, there are some rules to follow, but most often you have to adapt those rules to create a look on each individual’s face that you are applying makeup on. That’s where the creativity, and the artist’s individual style, comes into play.

There are also different venues, like theater, where makeup is not only utilized to create the various characters the actors portray, but to be seen in a defined manor from a well lit stage.

On television, and in film, makeup is used to achieve a finished look under different types of lighting that is being used for any given scene.

HDTV has now entered the arena, and though the techniques may remain the same ,there are a few new rules regarding product and application that have makeup artists experimenting with new textures and how the are applied .

My brother, Robb Fischer, is a national cinematographer and  has always said, “With HDTV, what you see is what you get.”   So now there is another issue for the makeup artist to contend with. Think about it! The reality of the large screen and high definition format is not very forgiving. As a result, a more natural approach to makeup application is more important than ever.

I believe we are in the right place at the right time! Most of us don’t have the stress of worrying about our  “on camera” close up shots, but with the new technoogy that is available, we are not only able to look better than ever, but allow “our” natural beauty to take center stage. That has always been my approach to makeup application and goal as a “camera ready” makeup artist.

I look forward to sharing with you what I’ve learned over the years.  I’ve been trying many wonderful new products that are great for your skin , with the newest ingredients, that are not only healthy but actually bring out that youthful beauty that is so desirable. Can’t wait to share them with you!

I hope to bring a confidence to your approach to makeup, and fads that come and go, by teaching you how to adapt them to your individual needs.

Oh yes…. I even have a few tried and true tricks that are easy, fun, quick and effective to look good and feel great about yourself when you “check” yourself in the mirror.
