About the event

What is Beautyworld Middle East?

Beautyworld Middle East is a trade-only exhibition that brings the full beauty supply chain together in one place. Buyers, distributors, salon owners, retailers and brand teams come to source products across more than ten sections, from cosmetics and skincare to fragrance, hair, nails, beauty tech and packaging. Alongside the halls, the show runs live demonstrations, the beautyLIVE education programme, conference streams on beauty and fragrance, country pavilions and the Beautyworld Dubai Awards.

The 2025 edition drew more than 85,000 visitors from 178 countries and over 2,500 exhibitors from 68 countries across 22 halls. With so many brands competing for attention, exhibitors need clear visual content: close-up product shots, launch videos, influencer and demo clips, and fast social posts that reach buyers who are walking the halls and those following online.
