- Leaders
- Barkha Shewakramani, Founder
- Analyst view
- Barkha Beauty is a founder-led UAE color-cosmetics label built around inclusive nude lip shades for deeper skin tones, launched in 2018 by Dubai entrepreneur Barkha Shewakramani. It sells directly through its own site with international shipping and has recently pushed into India. Similarweb shows negligible, largely untracked traffic, consistent with a small, early-stage brand. No manufacturing partner, production country, or funding history is publicly disclosed, and distribution appears limited to its own DTC channel.
- Partnership angles
- Early-stage founder brand with undisclosed manufacturing likely still needs a stable OEM partner for lip and complexion color cosmetics as it scales · Recent India expansion suggests interest in cost-effective formulation that travels well in hot/humid climates · Inclusive-shade positioning implies demand for a broad, well-documented pigment range across skin tones.
United Arab Emirates · Not disclosed on site · Niche fragrance / perfume

- Contact
- Only home and 'Our Story' pages were reachable this session; no dedicated wholesale/press contact page was found
- Analyst view
- Ghawali is a UAE-based niche fragrance brand selling eau de parfum around AED 599 and concentrated perfume oils near AED 320, positioned around Gulf cultural heritage and 'high-end allure.' It runs its own e-commerce sites for the UAE and Saudi Arabia plus physical stores, but Similarweb shows no measurable public traffic for the UAE domain, consistent with a small or early-stage niche retailer. No manufacturing, ownership, or funding details are disclosed on its own channels.
- Partnership angles
- Niche fragrance positioning around regional heritage would value formulation/compounding partners who can protect proprietary scent profiles · No disclosed manufacturing partner or production country leaves an open question for any supplier discussion · Store-plus-DTC model across UAE and KSA suggests interest in partners comfortable with multi-market regulatory and labeling needs.

- Analyst view
- Huda Beauty is a Dubai-founded global color-cosmetics brand launched in 2013 by Huda Kattan and sister Mona Kattan, built on Huda's influencer following. TSG Consumer Partners took a minority stake in 2017 before the family regained full ownership by mid-2025; it later added fragrance (Kayali) and skincare (Wishful) lines. It sells via its site plus Sephora and Harrods, with a large, US-led audience. A 2022 settlement over restricted ingredients is a compliance risk; manufacturing undisclosed.
- Partnership angles
- Recently became fully founder-owned after buying out its private-equity investor, which may open room for new strategic supply relationships · Spawned fragrance (Kayali) and skincare (Wishful) sister brands, suggesting ongoing appetite for category expansion needing new formulation expertise · A past regulatory settlement over restricted eye-area ingredients underscores the value of rigorous ingredient documentation and compliance support.

- Leaders
- Mona Kattan, Co-Founder & CEO — Wikipedia, Business of Fashion
- Analyst view
- Kayali is a fragrance brand Mona Kattan founded in 2018 as a Huda Beauty family extension, built around a 'fragrance layering' concept of complementary concentrations. Similarweb shows a large, US-led audience with meaningful UK and Australian reach, and it sells via its own site plus Sephora and Ulta, typical of an accessible-prestige fragrance house. No manufacturing location or independent funding is disclosed; it likely shares marketing and retail relationships with parent Huda Beauty.
- Partnership angles
- As a fragrance-layering brand, it would need fragrance-compounding and bottling partners capable of producing multiple coordinated concentrations · Wide Sephora/Ulta distribution implies a need for reliable, retail-scale production capacity · No disclosed manufacturer leaves supply-chain partnership details unconfirmed publicly.
United Arab Emirates · Not disclosed on site · Multi-brand curated beauty, skincare and wellness retailer (not a single-product manufacturer)
Powder Beauty Site ↗
Self-described 'region's first' curated multi-brand beauty/skincare/wellness e-commerce destination for the Middle East, hand-picking indie and 'conscious beauty' brands from around the world (Glow Hub, Vida Glow, Manasi 7, etc.) rather than manufacturing one product line itself.
- Revenue
- Not disclosed
- Channels
- DTC e-commerce platform reselling 50+ third-party beauty and wellness brands
- Manufacturing
- Not disclosed — Site describes itself as a curated multi-brand retailer ('hand-picked from around the world') carrying 50+ third-party brands, so it does not manufacture its own products (powderbeauty.com).
- Contact
- Standard e-commerce customer service; no distinct wholesale/press/brand-submission page was found this session
- Analyst view
- Powder Beauty is a multi-brand beauty/wellness e-commerce retailer rather than a manufacturer, curating 50+ third-party brands (CosRX, Oribe, Glow Hub) around stated clean/ethical values. Similarweb shows a small, split audience across the US, Saudi Arabia and UAE with a very short average visit, suggesting a browsing-heavy audience. As a retailer it has no manufacturing model of its own; it is a distribution channel, not a production partner, and discloses no funding.
- Partnership angles
- As a curator of others' brands rather than a manufacturer, it represents a retail/distribution channel opportunity rather than a production partnership · Its 'personal values' curation criteria (clean, ethical formulations) suggest any listed brand needs strong ingredient documentation · Cross-border audience (US, Saudi Arabia, UAE) points to interest in brands with multi-market shipping and compliance already sorted.

- Analyst view
- Shiffa is a Dubai-founded skincare brand built around a physician-led, natural-ingredient positioning. Its own storefront and About page both returned 404 errors this session, suggesting a broken or unmaintained site. Similarweb shows a small, UAE-and-India audience with low traffic and a very short average visit, consistent with a niche or under-invested presence. No manufacturing, funding, or ownership could be verified, pointing to elevated continuity risk.
- Partnership angles
- A currently broken storefront (404s on core pages) is a reliability flag worth confirming before any partnership discussion · Physician-led, natural-ingredient positioning would need suppliers able to document clinical and sourcing claims · Small, UAE/India-concentrated audience suggests current capacity needs are likely modest.
