SoftShe styling tips

  • Pick shades that flatter your skin tone – warm nudes, blush tones and gentle neutrals always look elevated.
  • Use an underscarf for grip so your hijab stays in place all day.
  • Magnets are softer on your fabrics than sharp pins.
  • Keep jewelry simple so your hijab drape remains the focus.
