Does anyone know why there are so few Mally beauty items? Is she getting out of that business? I find it strange seeing her on the Q all the time but not for her beauty line.

I just noticed that as well.  Was looking for her shadow sticks and none to be found.

I just noticed the same thing. Somewhere on the site there was a place to look at items nominated for the Beauty Awards........................Over to the left it listed all the brands and I noticed there was no Mally. So it looks like her beauty line is definitely being phased out.

Mally Beauty was acquired by AS Beauty Group in 2021.  AS also owns Laura Geller Cosmetics and Julep.

I looked last night because I was out of the tinted primer I use in her line.  There's next to nothing; only a single page.

I thought the same thing - the line is being discontinued, most likely.

ETA:  I just did a search online and even her own website only shows about 16 items and they all say "Sold Out".  I think this line is gone and the stuff QVC has is probably leftover, old stock.

I do know the last duo I got of her correcting primer wasn't the same as previous versions.  I had to keep shaking the tubes because the product had separated.  I should've sent it back, but I couldn't find it anywhere else.

I also noticed this. As I understand it, when a lot of founders of makeup companies sell or are bought out by a large corporation the original founder stays on as a spokesperson for a while.

In Mally's case I don't think she has anything to do with the line she founded any longer.

 I think Laura Geller is staying involved somehow with the SECOND and current owners of the line she founded. The first owners changed a lot, which I wasn't happy about. 

But I don't think QVC wants to let Mally go. That's why she is on different shows a lot and has her own show coming up.

I hope the line continues. Mally's Face Defender is one of my HG's!

is it possible they are repackaging her stuff now that it has been sold.?  I have never bought her products ,but I know she has been a staple and well love brand forever, maybe over 20 yrs . I know when brands are sold there is a 3=5 yr period , depending on contract, before new owners change, blends, drop items and such and then drop the previous  owner from promotion. Perricone, Bobbi brown, and many others di that after they sold. Then the previous owner can market another brand. .  Also, she may be under contract not to talk about it for a while. Idk.  I hope it isn't so

It seems like all of her work energy is going towards being a Q host.  I don't know why her photo isn't on the host page!

Is her website still up? Not that it's really "her makeup" anymore anyway...I've ordered only a few things from there since she sold her company...not nearly the quality or performance of her old line.

Sad she sold...many of her products were my Holy Grails, concealer, mascara, shadow sticks, eyeliner pencils, lipglosses, lipsticks, forever. All which I've yet to replace with anything I've liked as much!

I still have eyeliner pencils of hers I use everyday...glad they don't "use up" all that fast.

Sad when I had to finally throw out, last year, some old favorite lip glosses...felt it was time, past their prime, worried about bacteria. Prettiest shades and look of those!

Anyway RIP Mally Beauty. As for Mally as a host...not with Shawn, way to silly and loud and chaotic. But I did watch a few of her interviews on QVC+ channel last year...and they were better...she was more calm, "real."

Maybe that's why she started a home decor and fashion line.  Truth be told her presentations give me a headache.
