TEMPO: We love the Bedouin make up look, tell us about it.
Iman: I love traditional things! And I wanted so show it using makeup.Arabic makeup is usually focused on the eyes, using thick black kohl liner, so I used that on my eyes, blended it with black eyeshadow to intensify the look, and drew tribal marks on my chin and forehead. I made the look artistic by wearing navy blue lipstick. The colour blue was used a lot in the olden days; it was one of the favouritecolours to the Bedouin. They used to preserve their burgaa’with the colour.
TEMPO: Is the “Bedouin look” a trend that can be revived once again?
Iman: I have tried to bring Bedouin back but with a modern twist! Of course it could re-emerge. Just like how fashion comes and goes, old makeup could be revived again.
