25 Things Lebanese Social Media Influencers Would Die Without

Ah, the life of a social media influencer. What do they influence, you ask? Nothing really, just themselves into thinking they have something important to share with literally anyone who will like their pics. Here are some things the not-so-elusive Lebanese influencer wouldn’t be able to survive without.


1. The smile their boyfriend gave them.




2. Coconut oil, coconut water, coconuts in general.




3. Free lunches

They’d literally die of starvation if they had to start funding their own meals.


4. Macarons




5. Graffiti

Doesn’t matter what it says or what it means – graffiti is always a go-to backdrop for a ‘spontaneous’ boomerang of you twirling in the city.


6. Free make up sent to their house

How else would they post their daily ‘no make up’ morning selfie?


7. Photo editing apps

For obvious reasons.


8. Starbucks Frappuccinos to pose with




9. Giving unsolicited advice




10. The word ‘guys’

How else would they start every sentence?


11. The Instagram app




12. Inflatable flamingos




13. Front-facing cameras




14. The ‘I <3 Beirut' sign

You know, the one in Downtown Beirut – on that note…


15. Downtown Beirut

Where else can you take pictures to pretend that you’re rich?


16. Snapchat filters




17. Stolen graphics that say things like ‘Hello October’

What else would they post on the first of every month?


18. Red lipstick




19. Offensively large sunglasses

Is it because the less that your face shows in the picture, the more you think people will find you pretty? #Deepthoughts


20. T-shirts about needing coffee

We get it, we get it. First, you drink the coffee. Then you do the influencer things.


21. T-shirts about needing fries

Fries and guys should not be mutually exclusive.


22. Housekeepers to take their pictures for them

You know it’s true.


23. Lip fillers




24. Veneers




25. A false sense of social validation
