YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe founder of popular cosmetics brand Huda Beauty is facing calls for a boycott after declaring on social media that she doesn’t want “blood money” from Israeli customers. NY Post reporter Lisa Fickenscher shares this story.
A day after the brutal Hamas attack against Israel on Oct. 7, Huda Kattan — a Kim Kardashian lookalike whose fast-growing brand is sold at retailers including Sephora and Walmart — was celebrating her 40th birthday at a luxury hotel in Dubai and posted a jubilant photo of herself on Instagram surrounded by balloons and roses.
“I don’t know if you noticed, but Israelis from all over the world love you and your products,” one Instagram user replied, according to a screenshot of the post reported by The Express Tribune, a Pakistani-owned news site.
