With over 240k followers on Instagram, Talia Fawaz is adored for channeling her real life blend of beauty, travel, and lifestyle into relatable content.

It’s no surprise that when Sephora announced their fourth regional collaboration, our January 2025 digital cover star was tapped to co-create a limited-edition Sephora Collection set that captures her fun and effortless approach to beauty.

The Sephora x Talia Fawaz Blush & Eyeshadow Edit features the Beautiful Dreams nine-pan eyeshadow palette in a medley of shimmers and matte nudes and a pink On A Roll Blush and Go liquid blush. We caught up with Talia to find out more about the inspo behind her set and how she brought her signature aesthetic to life.

Cosmo ME: What was your vision when creating the Sephora Collection x Talia Fawaz and how did you want it to reflect your world and lifestyle?

Talia Fawaz: I wanted the collection to feel like my world in makeup form. Fun, confident, and a little cheeky, which is in line with the Sephora Collection DNA.

It’s inspired by everything I love. I just wanted it to feel real and easy-like. You don’t need to be a makeup pro to feel good using it.

Cosmo ME: Which shade in the Beautiful Dreams palette or shade combo feels the most you and why?

Talia Fawaz: My favourite has to be the sparkly silver shade. I’m obsessed with adding a bit of sparkle to my eyes. It just gives that little something without even trying, you know?

Cosmo ME: How does your ability to switch from soft glam to statement looks influence the products you designed?

Talia Fawaz: ⁠I’m always switching it up depending on my mood. Some days I’m all about the fresh, dewy look, and other days I love a bold eye or lip.

I made sure every product works both ways: buildable, blendable, and easy to layer whether you want something subtle or full on glam.

Cosmo ME: How does it feel to bring your signature style to a brand that inspires so many beauty lovers globally?

Talia Fawaz: It honestly feels surreal. Sephora Collection has always been a dream brand for me, and being able to infuse my own personality and aesthetic into a collection is such a full circle moment. Seeing people use it creatively is the best part.
