Being an Artist means capturing beauty
Ever since I was a young boy, I loved art, painting, and design. I was amazed at how they open the doors to fantasy and imagination. Beauty was everywhere and I was instantly attracted to it. Young Bassam was excited to grab his pencils and redo the make-up seen on models and celebrities in magazines. I embraced my calling early on and went on to study at the prestigious Paris Carita Beauty Institute. This marked a turning point in my life as I realized my dream and developed a unique approach to the beauty industry. I opened my first Bassam Fattouh institute in 1997 in Beirut, Lebanon.
Respected by some of the world’s most prestigious beauty brands, I havehad the privilege of participating in groundbreaking collaborations. I was the first
spokesperson for Clarins in the Middle East and later worked with Dior on aspecial edition eyeshadow editorial, creating an iconic smokey-eye with an oriental twist.
My expertise has also earned recognition from Saks Fifth Avenue Riyadh, who appointed me to establish the Bassam Fattouh Institute as their official beauty
center, a testament to my skill and vision. Beyond collaborations, my artistry has been celebrated by celebrities, royalty, models, and women worldwide, reflecting
my belief that beauty is an art and everyone deserves to experience it at its finest.
