Today, Lebanese makeup artist Sara Khabbaz brings that mission to the Middle East, curating the lines she relies on for runway shows, bridal suites and red-carpet shoots.

Layla J.

The Velvet Matte Lipstick is the first matte that doesn’t crack after coffee #3. Color stays rich, my lips stay soft. Sold for life!

Hani M.

I used the Luminous Skin Foundation on a bridal shoot and the photographer asked if I’d retouched the files. Nope—just KOST.

Carla S.

That Butter-Soft Blush literally melts into the skin. Zero patchiness even on my textured cheeks.

Dalia K.

Five-minute eyes with the 4-in-1 Shadow Stick? Game-changer for school-run mornings.

Nour A.

I’m sensitive to fragrance, but the Hydra-Fix Setting Spray is scent-free and still locks makeup for 10 hours in UAE humidity.
