Hindash is a Dubai-based makeup artist whose career spans digital education, editorial work, and commercial partnerships. Born and raised in the city to Jordanian parents, he studied visual communication and studio art before turning his attention to beauty. His early work on platforms such as YouTube and Instagram established him as a visible voice in the region, with tutorials that emphasized technique, clarity, and repeatable process rather than transformation for effect.
Over time, his work moved beyond digital instruction into high-profile professional settings. Hindash has collaborated with international beauty houses and worked with figures from fashion and entertainment across the region and beyond. In 2025, he was appointed the Middle East regional makeup ambassador for Guerlain, placing him within a heritage luxury house while maintaining his base in Dubai.
The masterclass itself stayed close to practice. Hindash focused on how makeup behaves under different lighting conditions, how proportions shift in photography, and how finishes register in motion. The discussion remained technical. Brushes, layering, and product selection were addressed with the assumption that makeup is applied craft, shaped by environment and repetition.
That approach aligned with the setting. The Grand Atrium offers no controlled backdrop. Faces are seen briefly, then again, from different angles and distances. Hindash’s emphasis on durability and restraint reflected those conditions, treating makeup as something designed to hold in open space rather than disappear once the lights change.
The session closed without ceremony. Questions centered on application choices and professional judgment, not trends. In opening the festival’s masterclass program, Hindash set a tone defined by clarity and control, establishing makeup as work done in real time, under real conditions.
