Summary
"I find the body to be a very sacred place and I don’t think that you need to get attention by exposing your skin, I think you can get attention by dressing interesting." - my guest Negarin, on the modest fashion movement and her personal style
Negarin has always been a go-getter. In the same year we met, I watched her launch her own fashion line,Negarin London, debut at London Fashion Week. She was also really nice to me when I moved to London (which I can’t say for most girls). We discuss how she came to understand self-presentation growing up in Iran and how the hijab changes beauty standards. We talk about her father’s intensity and commitment to human rights and her Mom’s phobia of sun exposure. I learn how this relates to colorism and an unfair premium on fair skin that seems to be a global phenomenon. We talk about COLOR: why she loves wearing pastels and how good pink and coral look on darker skin.
“I want to be loud about the fact that I’m different” is Negarin’s stance on standing out in the tech world where everyone tends to look the same. Her skincare routine is super simple and she believes the more you touch your face and mess with it, the more problems you’ll have with your skin. She also shares her experience following a fully ketogenic diet which made her ‘feel like a bird’ because she just had so much energy. Apparently salmon, avocado and spinach is the best way to delve into Keto but I’ll take her word for it because it sounds like entirely too much work (urine strips & weighing food are involved). We talk hair, history of hijab, See below for all of the amazing products mentioned:
The Products Negarin Loves:

Keto Diet: A detailed Beginner’s Guide
Kjaeir Weiss Blush - beautiful cream blush with gorgeous sustainable packaging

| 0:13.0 | I've been sick with the cold for the past few days. |
| 0:15.0 | Nothing major, but just even having the common cold really makes you appreciate your body. |
| 0:19.0 | And it's when you really start to think about food as nourishment and the importance of rest and |
| 0:25.2 | hydration. |
| 0:26.5 | You guys on the Naked Beauty Planet Instagram group have been amazing. |
| 0:30.1 | You guys have dimmed me so many things to do to like get over the cold quicker, |
| 0:34.4 | tea with lemon, adding fresh ginger to your tea, adding garlic to your tea, or |
| 0:39.7 | even chopping up a garlic clove and eating the pieces of garlic hole. I've been doing that for the past four |
| 0:44.7 | days. It's kind of gross, but if you just like put it far back in your tongue and don't taste it, it's not so bad. |
| 0:50.9 | And I think it's what's helped me recover much quicker than I would |
| 0:53.6 | if I was just taking the over-the-counter cold medicine. So I appreciate all of |

| 1:01.2 | another one that so many of you said just take shots of apple |
| 1:03.7 | cider vinegar. I've been doing that. Adding chlorophyll, liquid chlorophyll to water to increase the |
| 1:08.7 | oxygen content. That's been making me feel great. Two things I didn't get to try that so many of you said you have to do |
| 1:14.7 | oil of oregano, and I've heard this for years that oil of oregano knocks out a cold. |
| 1:18.8 | I didn't get to try it. |
