Singer Ruweida Al Mahrouqi is the ambassador for Marico’s new ‘Parachute Gold’ hair care products and you can see why that would be the case.
In the clip above, she shows a nicely understated arabic makeup that is not as hard to capture for yourself as many others we see.

To put it gently, Ruweida Al Mahrouqi is unique. The UAE singer has smashed through stereotypes and unabashedly challenged critics who have deemed her music and lifestyle inappropriate. With a bubbly personality that’s infectious and a genuine sincerity that is almost impossible to come across in the Arabic music industry, Al Mahrouqi is all about putting on a good show. Her image, she says, is just an act and her only concern is entertaining the fans. We sit down with her in a candid talk about her past and how she’s managed to outsmart the cynics.
“I have basically no makeup on, I stay very casual, I avoid being flashy and I like comfortable clothes. You’ll most likely see me in jeans, a top and sandals. If I want to get a little bit more dressy towards the evening it will still be jeans, but with maybe high heels and a fancier top. But I’m definitely into sporty chic.”
“Once I have the make-up on and the hair up something goes wrong! I’m quiet and calm in real life; I avoid being flashy. On TV I have to shine.”
