Joelle Mardinian

This Lebanese TV superstar, celebrity make-up artist, beauty expert and entrepreneur is the epitome of the ‘girl done good’ story.

An early adopter of the powers of social media and its impact on the beauty business, the Dubai-based Mardinian started as a make-up artist but soon spun off into presenting her eponymous TV show on MBC, before rolling out a series of salons, and her own line of products. She is a woman with grace, style and substance — and has each in abundance.
