How to Rock a Full Face with Arab Beauty Brands
Who doesn’t love a little glam-up? A lot of us do, and usually, we go for popular global brands, whether it is Rihanna’s Fenty Beauty or literally any product from Sephora.
Did you know, though, that today, the Arab world carries some of the most prominent names in beauty? To introduce you to a few, we created a guide on how to glam up with a full face of makeup using Arab-only beauty brands:
Get Blushed & Bronzed With Huda Beauty
Known as one of the first beauty gurus of the region, who launched her own line of false eyelashes in 2013, Iraqi American beauty influencer Huda Kattan has grown even more and has become the founder of the ultimate beauty brand both regionally and globally.
To use her makeup line for the ultimate glam, start by using her GloWish Soft Radiance Bronzing Powder. Brush it onto the highest point of your cheekbones and the side of your forehead, then blend upwards to create that contour effect.
Then, take her Blush Filter Liquid Blush and sweep it at the top of your cheekbones for a touch of warmth or a sun-kissed look, if you like.
Wing Out Your Eyes With Hindash Cosmetics
When a makeup artist launches their own makeup line, you’ll be guaranteed that it will be good. That is the case with Dubai-based Jordanian makeup artist Mohammed Hindash, who launched his own beauty line in 2022.
Today, it has become a staple in many makeup lovers’ beauty routines and was even used to glam up royals, including the Queen of Jordan herself!
With him being an eyeliner expert, a go-to product we want you to use is his Eye Tone, which is a vegan slim wooden pencil with a creamy formula that gives you that smokey, winged look.
Lash It Out With By Mina Al Sheikhly
Not too long ago, Iraqi social media star and budding beauty mogul Mina Al Sheikhly introduced to the world her mascara line, By Mina Al Sheikhly. This line is the bomb, as her mascara products do it all, from lengthening and thickening to including a waterproof topcoat.
Recently, she even came out with a more daring line of colored mascara that comes in green, blue, brown, and burgundy.
To amp up the volume of your lashes, add flicks of her Curved and Elevated mascara kit, with one mascara curling your lashes while the other separating them for that voluminous look.
Shade Those Lids With Asteri
Saudi entrepreneur Sara Al-Rashed likes to generate buzz. That is why when she launched her beauty brand Asteri, she didn’t do it in the conventional way of gradually launching her brand, product by product. Instead, she emerged with a full makeup line when she officially launched.
To get the most out of her makeup, we recommend glamming up your eyelids with her four-shade ‘Maha’ eyeshadow palette. Trust us, it’ll take your look to the next level.
Balm Up With SimiHaze Beauty
Palestinian sister duo Simi and Haze Khadra brought their very own beauty brand back to life in 2021. They made crazy noise because of introducing the “eye play rave” pack of peel-and-stick eyeliner designs. These stickers can be applied to the face without smudging.
Along with the stickers, the brand is also known for their multi-purpose color tints as well as lip balms and glosses.
To give your lips that plump look, go for SimiHaze’s Matte Lipstick Balm, which has a matte look yet feels hydrating like a lip balm. It comes in 16 shades giving you ample ways to glam up!
Using our guide, you’ll create a complete look using Arab-only makeup, showcasing how much the region has propelled itself into the beauty industry.
