Beauty & Fashion
Alright, we're just going to say it: yes, there are Black muslims.
In fact, Black muslims all over the world showing us all that Blackness is not monolithic, and yes, modest style can still look effortlessly fly. Thanks to social media, the spotlight is getting shown on all the talented Muslim beauty bloggers who are striving to show that the beauty space can and should be more inclusive.
We love to see how style can transcend culture, and how Muslim women have, for years, helped craft much of the style narrative, though they have often been overlooked. However, we're looking to change all that by destroying the norms and stereotypes that exist against others.
