Behind Every Picture, There Is an Untold Story

Soheil Sabet born in 1985 in Tehran, Soheil Jalili Sabet’s passion for cinema, theater, and television secured him a seat at Seda Va Sima high school in Shamiranat, where he finally graduated in performing arts. Sabet enrolled in a film editing program in 2003 and graduated with an associate’s degree. Because of his fascination with the field of makeup for film and screen and his background and work experience in the industry, Sabet continued his education in makeup and graduated with a bachelor’s degree. Since there was no master’s program in makeup, he continued his higher education by pursuing a BA in film and television directing, an industry he mastered over the years by working on ample projects in the theater, cinema, or television. Sabet’s extensive traveling, including trips to Canada, Qatar, the UAE, Germany, and several other European countries, provided him with ample opportunities to meet like-minded world-quality professional makeup artists such as Mario Dedivanovic and Sumer Khouzami and accumulate extensive expertise in his profession; this made him more than qualified to set up his own academic field in beauty and write books on makeup and beauty. Sabet’s academic efforts came to fruition with the publication of his Mr. Makeup, a nine-volume book series. Soheil Sabet is currently the founder and head of the first online beauty school in Iran-Closeup School. Currently Sabet has taught numerous Iranian and foreign pupils. The covid-19 pandemic proved an opportunity for him to shift his focus to online learning by establishing an online beauty school through which he enables access for all those interested in beauty to top-quality expertise and knowledge in the field.
