Pakistani Brands Worth Spending On Summer’24 Edition

Guess who went over board with lawn and promised herself she won’t be doing it anymore? ME. That’s right. ME. What’s summer without tons of lawn suits you’ll even probably not wear because you prefer staying in Pyjamas at home. Every girl/woman needs dresses just in case they might need to dress up.

HUSSAIN REHAR

I absolutely love his clothes. Specially the lawn unstitched suits. Though you need a lot of effort to find the right laces in at least 3-4 different shapes and designs. I wore his designs on both the Eids this year. His lawn quality is the best amongst Pakistani designers. He also launched Jugnu Pret and I got a yellow 2 piece dress from that collection it’s so cute and the best part is it’s super comfy and super loose. Loose fitted clothes are extremely comfortable to carry in this 44 degrees heat. Do check out his collection if you’re into something similar to these cute dresses.

ZARA SHAHJAHAN

I absolutely love all her collection. From the Eid RTW to her coco lawn collection. The quality never disappoints and they recently opened their outlet in my city previously they only had studios in Karachi. I just realised all the articles I got and/or planning to get are from the same color family, Blue.

If you’re into blues definitely check out her collection. My size in the Pret for completely sold out, will probably visit the studio to see if they have my size available over there. I absolutely love her Coco Collection, it’s perfect for day to day wear. I prefer having minimal embroidery for causal wear clothes because it’s very difficult to carry heavily embroidered lawn clothes in this heat. You want something soft, loose fitted and easy to carry anywhere anytime.

SERÁN

I got a few dresses from this particular collection. Absolutely loved the soft lawn fabric and the easy to carry cotton net and chiffon duppata. The only headache was to find the right laces and getting them dyed. I’m big on all the tiny details of my dresses. These are again easy to carry with minimal embroidery. They have had multiple collections launched too but this collection literally has all my heart for all the florals and cute prints.

ZAIB

Disclaimer: Their stitched options are very loose, if you’re a size small usually just get an extra small.

Absolutely loved the quality of their fabric however the sizing is a bit confusing so I’d recommend you to get in unstitched and get it stitched from your own tailor. Their models are super skinny which makes you think you might want to size up but trust me the fitting doesn’t come in slim fit, it’s loose. I got a dress and will probably never wear it or just give it to my tailor to fix it. Do check it out if you’d opt for something unstitched. Rest it’s all good and pretty.

SAPPHIRE

This is my everyday wear go to brand. The best part is it’s not that pricey and I experiment new designs on them and they turn out to be amazing every single time. The lace, necklines, hem and sleeves I experiment with every single thing. Again their cute minimal prints, duppatas and basic embroidery is what I love the most about this brand.

MIAASA

This is just another Pakistani Footwear brand which I absolutely love. I have a couple of pairs from this amazing brand. Got flats and heels. It’s a very unique brand and different from all these other common shoe brands. The way they sparkle and look is just too good. Whenever I go through their website I just want to order everything. I absolutely love buying shoes in different colors and designs to match my outfits. Just a quick tip make sure you get padded shoes not the ones with a hard plastic sole, otherwise your feet will start killing you and it’s terrible. Comfort needs to go hand in hand together with fashion. They recently started selling their shoes in New York too, and this brand has a long way to go.

Lastly i’d like to say is you can wear the most amazing outfit but at the end of the day it will all come down to how you carry yourself. Take care of yourselves, you are what you eat and think. So eat good and think good/positive too.

Favourites 2024 🫶

Hey guys!

We’ve reached the end of the 5th month of this year and the time is just slipping by so fast. Anyways, I have been using some products this year which have been my go to every single time. I’d recommend these to anyone reading this blog post;

Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun : Rice + Probiotics (SPF50+ PA++++)

This is a light yet very creamy and hydrating sunscreen and i’ve been using it for 3 months now. This is contains 30% rice extract which is highly nourishing for the skin. I use it twice throughout the day once after my morning skin routine and the other layer 4-5 hours later throughout the day. I generally use sunblock a lot, even if i’m home i’ll use it.

Beauty of Joseon Ginseng Essence Water

I have been using this amazing toner and it’s my go to everytime I wash my face. Ginseng has been a cherished herb in Korean history, renowned for its benefits to our overall health and particularly our skin. This Ginseng Essence Water, is made with 80% ginseng water, harnesses the natural power of ginseng, nourishing and hydrating the skin deeply. This essence not only supplies your skin with ample moisture and nutrients but also ensures long-lasting hydration.

Bioderma Sensibio Gel Moussant

My skin has gotten really sensitive and I cannot use harsh chemicals or cleansers on my face. This has been my favourite facial wash since over a month now. They didn’t have the 200ML size available in my country to I had to order it from abroad. They had the 45ML sizes which hardly lasted me 10 days or maybe 12. This has no fragrance and is amazing when you want to wash off your stubborn mascara or even normally washing your face in the morning.

*remember you need to clean the excess makeup off before washing it with a face wash for a double cleanse and make sure everything comes off before you start your skincare*

Bioderma attoderm moisturiser

This is my favourite moisturiser. This is insanely hydrating. They stopped selling this particular moisturiser in my country *yet again* had to order it from boots and they had an amazing deal of buy 2 get the third one for free. Boots.uk has amazing deals so do check them out when ordering. Bioderma has been my favourite brand since last year.

Cosrx Pimple Patch

We all have that day when we have a pimple show up in the most obvious place on our face , and guess what I got? Cosrx pimple patch. You can literally do all your skincare and put up a patch over your annoying pimple and wait for it to go away.

Armani Luminous Silk Foundation

This foundation is everything. I am so upset that I never listened to people suggesting me this hydrating , sheer coverage and silk foundation before. It feels like your own skin and it gives you such a natural glow. I have used it 3-4 times already and I absolutely love it. This is coming from someone who has used Nars, Huda Beauty, Fenty and Chanel foundations; Armani takes the cake. Also your makeup will only look good if you take care of your skin and your diet. You can get all the expensive stuff but if your skin isn’t doing good you won’t look good.

Nars Creamy Concealer

I’ve been using this concealer since I first got it 2022. Got 2 more this year. The best part? It’s not at all heavy can be used on its own or over your foundation for a more glammed up look.The shelf life of this product is 2 years making it a major plus point to anyone who, like me, throws away makeup after the shelf life has ended.

Kiko Colored LipBalms

I absolutely love these lip balms. They are so hydrating and not too pigmented. It has the perfect balance of both. Even if it comes off it leaves a hint of the pigment on your lips. It has this immense scent of shea butter with a creamy formula. If you’re someone who loves lip balms do try it out.

Rare Beauty Soft Pinch Liquid Blush & Lip Oil

Previously i’d used their lip oil when it came out and I usually just wear it under my lipgloss for that pop of color. It’s really long lasting and hydrating and a perfect substitute for lipsticks. The cheek tint however is absolutely lovely. A little goes a long way, one dot is enough for your cheeks and i’ll definitely be repurchasing these items. I got the dewy liquid blush in the shade happy.

L’Occitane Shea Butter Hand Cream

I’m a complete germaphobe and I tend to wash my hands a lot. I prefer using mild soap since they are less drying and then boom I got this hand cream and I always use it whenever I wash my hands. It doesn’t have an extremely strong scent and it is very thick consistency and immensely hydrating. This can be used as a hand mask too for immense hydration.

Summer Fridays Lip Balm

Another absolute favourite lip balm has to Summer Fridays lip balm in the flavor; pink sugar. The scent of vanilla is very overpowering in this lip balm and it gives a hint of sugar too making it really cute. This is the best product you can carry in your bag and if you’re someone who doesn’t like using lipsticks. For all my lip balm and lip gloss girlies I’d suggest this lip balm. I’m definitely getting 3-4 different flavors in this now.

YSL LIBRE INTENSE EDP

I am a huge fan of Vanilla and Tonka generally and whatever perfume has these two as base notes tend to grab my attention super quick. I got this a couple of weeks ago and I reach for this perfume every single time. I absolutely love how it dries down on skin, it’s a perfect balance of everything. If you’re a girl who loves buying perfumes and still hasn’t gotten their hands on this one i’d suggest go for it.

Will be adding more to this list! 🩷
