Mika Abdalla is the face of Urban Decay’s latest collection, and you already know she brought her effortlessly cool energy to the collab!

Known for her breakout role as Allie Hayes (hey, what a cool name!) on the hit Prime Video romance series Off Campus, the actor has been having an incredible year so far. For one, it was announced earlier this summer that Abdalla’s character—who played a side role in the first season—was set to lead the second season. And this week, beloved makeup brand Urban Decay dropped an ad featuring the star, marking her very first beauty campaign.

Humorously named the “Ghosting” trio, a video shared by Urban Decay on Monday, Aug. 3, showcased the new three-piece set with the actor front and center. The clip began as she exited a vehicle, only to be swarmed by paparazzi—that is, until she sprayed the brand’s latest creation in their direction, opting to literally “ghost” them. The rest of the ad continued the same tone, showing the star “ghosting” an unwanted call and spraying a door reading, “hottest man on the internet.”

“The premise of the campaign is transforming a familiar cultural conversation around ‘ghosting’ into an unexpected act of empowerment,” a statement shared with SI Lifestyle said. “Centered around the idea of ghosting what no longer serves you, Mika confidently ghosts the noise (using Urban Decay’s Ghosting Spray) that surrounds the rising star and instantly blurs anything that gets in her way.”
