Spending time on social media has become a hobby for some, and a habit for others. We spend hours on end on different platforms that we have become very selective on who we follow and why we follow them. Based on this, we asked the team to share 8 Lebanese content creators they believe everyone should be following. Here is who they chose:
1. Farixtube – Comedian
https://www.instagram.com/farixtube/Farid, which is Farixtube’s real name, is a local comedian who has left the internet amused with his sketches and highly relatable content. Below is one of our favorite videos.https://www.instagram.com/p/CRbMkqKl5_1/2. Miriam Abadi – Beauty
https://www.instagram.com/miriam_abadi/Miriam Abadi is a Lebanese-German influencer who has made her mark on social media over the past couple of years. Her content is mostly focused on skincare, fashion, and her two little boys – Jad and Sary. She recently launched her own beauty magazine called “Tru and Beyond,” the first platform of its kind in the Middle East.
3. Dr. Costi – Celebrity Dermatologist
https://www.instagram.com/dr.costi/
Dr. Costi is a celebrity dermatologist who sheds light on everything related to skincare and debunks myths that we all – at some point – thought were true. His charisma and friendly approach makes you want to follow him on his day-to-day journey, and you’d never go out without sunscreen once you hit that follow button – that’s for sure!

We’re sure you’ve seen her face before, and that’s not a coincidence: Sarah is a socio-political writer who’s been talking in the name of Lebanon for more than a year now. Her rich content helps people understand what’s really going on in Lebanese politics. If you happen to be into politics and political reforms, her account is definitely worth checking out.
