Just wanted to give y'all the heads up that Mally is doing another mystery bag. I got the last one and really loved it. Definitely worth a try if you like their cosmetics. The site keeps going down from heavy traffic, but I was able to get in a few minutes ago.  I got 2 so I could get free shipping - that's how much I liked the last one. Hopefully this one will be as good.

 
I was all right with the first bag.  I got it with the free shipping code before they stopped allowing that.  I had not used any Mally products before, so it was a good way to test them out.  I think the highlighter in mine might actually work for me (rare for a highlighter because I'm so pale).  Didn't need any more lip gloss or mascara, but it will all get put to use.  The purse is pretty small but I need a few smaller bags.  (I got the white one.)

 
Ahh, ditto on the finally a pale highlighter thing! I really liked the formula for the lipglosses a lot and absolutely loved the blush - I like cream blush to begin with, and thought this formula was great. Also thought the eyeliner was great (although, yeah, don't really need black eyeliner at this point) and can always use brow gel. Haven't tried the eyeshadows yet.

I have a super-close family friend who is quite wealthy, obsessed with buying makeup, and her two daughters are total hippies, so she saves it all up and gives it to me when I visit. She is super pale, i'm only regular pale, so the stuff that is too dark for her I usually wind up getting. She gave me a ton of mally stuff  last time I saw her and i liked everything except for a concealer that was too light for me. I actually bought a refill of it in the correct color from Ulta because you can just pop it into the compact.  Overall I've been surprised with how much I like the line.

 
Thank you for posting this. I grabbed two. If nothing else I thought they could make really great gifts. Can't wait to see what colors/products I get.

 
Does anyone have pictures of what's in the bag? I'm so curious! 

I kinda want one but Idk haha

I've only ever tried Mally's mascara and wasn't a fan, but I am open to trying more stuff

 
I found these pictures online (not my blog):

I got my Mally Cyber Monday bag yesterday.  I received everything in the picture, only my bag was a light/metallic pink. 

I don't really have a use for the bag and as expected, the quality of the bag isn't really that great . . .though I suppose it could be used for a makeup pouch or something.  The little elastic holders that some of the products came with are a nice addition.  Overall, I was impressed with the assortment of products. 

I'm especially excited about the eyeliner, it's so buttery and pigmented.  I'm going to take a look at the website and might order another bag (if they're still available) and perhaps a full size product or two.  Thanks for letting us know about this!

 
I got the white bag - not really great quality or anything, but will totally come in handy for things like outdoor festivals when you want a small crossbody type of bag. Definitely not something I would use as an everyday bag. I suspect it's also meant to be able to be clipped to a belt / apron to be worn as a brush bag for their makeup artists? Could come in handy for use like that too, even if it's not for makeup.

The colors of my lipglosses seem to be different than the ones the person in that blog got (unless it's just a color calibration issue, since some of her other pictures look a bit off too).  I actually found that the formula wasn't sheer at all - I'll have to check later to see if maybe there were different lip products offered?  

I hope that this next one is just as good and that I didn't steer you wrong! And I really hope that they offer totally different products - I took a screen shot of where they said the bags would be different, just in case we needed it later.

My lipglosses were not as bright as on that blog, either.  I haven't used them yet, though.  I am suffering from lip color overload at the moment.  I have more than 80 lip color products sitting around my bathroom sink.  (I really need to stop buying stuff...)

 
All in all, I think Mally products are innovative and really great quality.  I went a little nuts on Cyber Monday and made lots of cosmetic orders, plus I still have my $25 Sephora coupon to spend.  

As much as I want to try another mystery bag from Mally, I'm going to be good and wait until the next big Mally offer.  Can't wait to see what you all get in this new bag, it'll be fun to see how they differ.  Oh - I have to say the lip glosses are a nice formula but the brush is a little bit weird for me as far as application.  I think they are versatile colors though and are pigmented enough to wear on their own, but could also look great over a lipstick.   :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
I don't think I have ever tried anything by Mally so I grabbed 2 of these. I thought one would be a nice gift for my SIL. They just came today. My bags were both a metallic bronze/gold color with a pale pink lining. Very pretty. It would be a great bag to take to a NYE party. The products in each bag were identical. It's definitely nice enough to gift.
