The 30-year-old Al-Fares—who became the youngest TV reporter in the Middle East at the tender age of 17—made sure to document the prestigious cinematic festival via her various social media platforms, which boast a combined total of 4.9 million devoted followers across Instagram and Twitter (making her the most followed woman in Jordan after HRH Queen Rania).

Al-Fares looked nothing short of elegant with her waist-grazing chocolate lengths raked back into a sleek, half-up hairstyle. The Jordanian journalist proved that she isn’t afraid to break the rules and paired a dramatic smokey eye with a bold, siren-red pout for the BFG screening. Get the look by reaching for the L’Oréal Color Riche lipstick in 430 (US $10; AED/SAR 37).
