Skin Deep

Here’s one of my latest fashion mag obsessions in this region. Skin Magazines is an English magazine published in Jordan. And it’s not just another fashion and lifestyle magazine. Skin covers bold statement of creative ingenuity in fashion, art and design, photography, film and music from the Middle East and around the world. Their main approach allows Middle Eastern inspired ideas to flourish by presenting them to the masses. The artwork and design of the magazine is done in-house by their talented Art Director. You can browse the pages of their current issue online here.

Picked this magazine up from Beirut airport, loved the fact that it was jam packed with colourful images and profiled interesting characters in the middle easts artsy scene. and thankfully wasn't full of advertisements.

I couldn't agree more. I was fascinated by the beautiful photo shoots and the artwork. And as you said, many interesting articles and reviews on creative middle easterners.

Miu Miu Pays Tribute to the Middle East

Everyone who knows me, knows that I have a soft spot for bag charms. They're fun, cute, and add a dose of irresistible character to your plain handbag. So when I got the news about Miu Miu paying tribute to the Middle Eastern culture by presenting an exclusive playful yet multifunctional accessories in luxurious precious skin, I got excited intrigued. The round-shaped charms has the Arabic alphabet, each piece presenting a letter design with metallic hues and vibrant colors. They're cute, nothing groundbreaking. I'm not sure if these bags charms would step up my bag charms game, but I guess it depends on their price tag and how "exclusively" exclusive they are. Maybe they'll grow on me? I don't know... What do you think? The charms should be available exclusively in  Miu Miu   Boutiques throughout our region.

Sephora Opening Soon At The Avenues II

Beauty Junkies rejoice! The famous retailer of perfumes and cosmetics and the leading beauty chain in Europe and US, Sephora , will be opening soon at The Avenues Phase II. Personally, I like Sephora not only because of its tempting cosmetic selection, but mainly because I don't feel pressured by sales associates to buy stuff that I don't really need. I can actually touch and try the products without having the sales associate stalking me around and giving me some unnecessary comments about my skin/make-up. I think Sephora will make it big here if it sells its high-end cosmetics which are unavailable at other beauty stores/pharmacies in Kuwait. Does anyone have any product recommendations or favorites?
