Since starting her beauty blog in 2010, the 34-year-old has developed an extensive online following of more than 23.9 million Instagram followers, four million YouTube subscribers and 1.5 million unique monthly site visits. With the help of her sisters Mona and Alya she has converted this popularity into a business in its own right with the launch of a cosmetics line in 2013 that has since grown to produce beauty products that are sold across the world from its Dubai base. Huda Beauty’s pulling power was proven at the end of 2017 when it received a minority investment from private equity firm TSG Consumer Partners and the social media star also ranked number one on an Instagram influencer rich list with earnings of $18,000 per post of sponsored content.
