<p>“I spent a few years producing a TV show, during which I was on set with some of the top makeup artists every day. I would always ask questions about the best products and how to use them, as well as what not to do when it comes to beauty. They would always tell me if they didn’t like a product I was using on my face.”</p>

<p>“<strong>Byredo</strong>’s ‘Gypsy Water’ is another one of my favorite scents.”</p>

<p>“When I first wake up, I immediately wash my face with <strong>Brave Soldier</strong> ‘Clean Skin’. A doctor recommended it to me and it’s by far my favorite face wash. It’s great for removing makeup and very gentle on the skin.”</p>

<p>“I always use a witch-hazel toner after I wash my face.”</p>
<p><em> </em></p>

<p>“After that, I apply <strong>Institut Esthederm</strong>’s ‘Intensif Hyaluronic’ serum, which I found in a French pharmacy. It’s my favorite everyday moisturizer.”</p>

<p>“I cannot live without this <strong>Giorgio Armani </strong>foundation!”</p>
<p><em> </em></p>

<p><em>“</em>I’ve only recently started using it, but I now love the <strong>Beauty Blender</strong> sponge. The secret is that you always have to dampen the sponge with water before using it for smoother foundation application. This product is a life changer!”</p>

<p>“I became interested in makeup at a young age. I always had older girl cousins, so I would constantly study them applying makeup and then go practice with all their products. I was probably around ten years old when I started.”</p>
<p><em> </em></p>
11/47
<p>“I love the long-lasting wear and color of this <strong>Beauty Is Life </strong>lipgloss. I can’t find it here, so I order it online. I usually apply it with a <strong>MAC </strong>lip liner in ‘Soar’.”</p>
<p><em> </em></p>

<p>“I’m not sure what’s in this product, but it’s one of my favorite masks to use twice a week. I buy it from <strong>The Dollhouse Dubai</strong>.”</p>

<p><em>“</em>I never thought I would wake up one day and decide to cut my hair shoulder length. It turned out to be the most refreshing feeling ever. I think it’s important to make some kind of change every so often! My go-to hairdresser is <strong>Joe Raad</strong> in DIFC.”</p>

<p>“I love using this <strong>Nuxe</strong> oil on my body to give it a nice bronzed shine, especially in summer.”</p>
<p><em> </em></p>

<p>“This is my favorite translucent powder. I use the ‘Banana’ color under my eyes and the ‘Fair’ color to help with contouring.”</p>
<p><em> </em></p>

<p><em>“</em>I love the <strong>Malin + Goetz</strong> ‘Lip Moisturizer’. It’s great to use over a light-colored lip liner during the day.”</p>
<p><em> </em></p>
<p> </p>

<p><em>“</em>If you want to grow long, dark lashes, I recommend using the <strong>Epione</strong> ‘Lash Therapy’ by <strong>Dr. Simon Ourian</strong> every day. It really works!”</p>
<p><em> </em></p>

<p>“This <strong>Chanel</strong> eyeshadow palette is my favorite.”</p>
<p><em> </em></p>
19/47
<p>“The <strong>Crème de la Mer</strong> is my go-to cream when I’m feeling dry and just need something to really moisturize and repair my skin overnight.”</p>
<p><em> </em></p>
20/47
<p>“The <strong>St. Tropez</strong> ‘Gradual Tan’ is a great self-tanner for the face. I apply it to my face at night if I want an extra-bronzed look for the next day.”</p>
<p><em> </em></p>
21/47
<p>“I don’t think it’s recommended for everyone, but taking Vitamin A has really helped me maintain good skin and control any type of blemishes that may arise. I take one pill before sleeping. Make sure it’s made from fish-liver oil and consult a dermatologist before you start taking it.”</p>
