FROM JANE FONDA TO PRINCESS CHARLÈNE: MAKE‐UP ARTIST KARIM SATTAR JOINS MEDICAL BEAUTY RESEARCH

Make-up artist and skincare expert Karim Sattar joins MBR to lead creative artistry, celebrity relations and global brand visibility.

AUE-BAD SCHLEMA, SAXONY, GERMANY, September 16, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — The internationally renowned make-up artist and skincare expert takes on the newly created role of Head of Creative Artistry and Celebrities at Medical Beauty Research and will further strengthen the brand in the global luxury and celebrity arena.

Aue-Bad Schlema, September 15, 2026. He has done the make-up for Jane Fonda, Princess Charlène of Monaco and Annie Lennox, his work has appeared in Vogue, ELLE and Harper’s Bazaar, and for many years he has accompanied international actors and German film teams onto the industry’s red carpets. Now Karim Sattar is joining Medical Beauty Research (MBR): as Head of Creative Artistry and Celebrities, he will be responsible for the brand’s creative presentation and for building its relationships with international personalities, artists and opinion leaders. The newly created role is part of the company’s international growth and brand strategy.
For Karim Sattar, a make-up artist choosing a skincare brand that operates at the frontier of medicine is a logical step: “Beauty begins with healthy skin. Making MBR’s expertise visible on international stages is a task I am very much looking forward to.”
MBR develops its formulations together with specialist dermatologists and experts in aesthetic medicine and has been manufacturing exclusively in Germany for more than 25 years. With around 200 products and treatment systems, the company is now one of the established international players in the medical luxury skincare segment. The brand is represented in more than 30 countries – from New York to London and Monaco – and is used primarily in aesthetic practices, specialized skin institutes and spas. The products are now also available through the company’s own online shop.
Stefan Kalmund, CEO of Medical Beauty Research: “Skincare has been moving closer to medicine for years. That is exactly the frontier where we work. In Karim Sattar, we have gained someone who can convey this standard to the outside world without oversimplifying it.”
Sattar brings more than 25 years of experience in the cosmetics industry. Most recently, he was Global Senior Artist and Pro Face at UND GRETEL and Global Communications Expert and Brand Ambassador for PRIMAVERA; before that, he spent more than nine years as an international make-up artist and trainer for Dr. Hauschka and held international leadership and expert roles at The Body Shop in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. At MBR, in addition to brand presentation, he is responsible for the company’s presence at international film and celebrity events and in the context of awards in the fields of beauty, health, innovation and sustainability.
