The Belle of Bel-Air

More is more, as the adage goes. That's certainly always been the motto of beauty entrepreneurs Jerrod Blandino and Jeremy Johnson. The California-based founders of the makeup brand Too Faced have always relished excess, so perhaps it's not surprising that for them, one home wasn't enough even when it is a maximalist mansion designed to their hearts' content. Their 17,000-square-foot home in Corona del Mar, featured in ELLE DECOR in March 2019, has Chanel tweed upholstery and a malachite-hued library. It is where they spend their workweek running Toy Box Brands, a beauty brand lab they started after selling Too Faced to Estée Lauder in 2016.

In early 2020, the couple bought a second home, in Bel-Air. After living in it for a year, they reached out to the designer of their first house, ELLE DECOR A-List talent Mary McDonald, whose fashion background lends her interiors a chic sense of color and pattern. "We create products that inspire people to live their best lives, so we need our own environments to make us feel like we are living that dream," Blandino says. "Mary captures that desire so beautifully."
