Pakistan has seen the emergence of extraordinary talent in the ever changing fields of fashion and beauty that not only redefines beauty standards but also produces goods to meet various demands.
The two strikingly prominent ladies who have taken the beauty industry by storm are Nadia Hussain and Nabila.
The two make-up maestros have their own product lines throughout Pakistan, and Nabila has her brand available in Dubai too. Both brands are becoming increasingly popular day by day and are the most talked about since a few years now.
Let’s discuss the two beautiful ladies, their products, and, of course, the pros and cons of their most liked products.
Nabila
This lady is the expert behind the Zero Make-up range and also the face behind Nabila’s salon chain. Nabila Maqsood, who is well known as Nabila, not only has decades of experience under her belt but is a well-known name in most households due to her exquisite hair salons and exceptional make-up techniques.
Nabila’s luxurious looking cosmetics line promises to give the most natural and an absolute flawless appearance to anyone.
Nabila has many products, from lipsticks to concealers and the Zero Foundation range, which I personally have used, but her most popular item to date is the Zero Make-up Palette.
The Zero Make-up Palette
– Is an all-in-one palette that is designed for when you have no time and are always on the go!
This little square of magic contains a concealer, blush, lip color, and a lightweight powder.
The Zero Make-up range's pros include
- Convenience! Those who desire to decrease their makeup bag and streamline their regimen would find the Zero Make-up Palette ideal.
- It’s travel-friendly; as it slips into your handbag, so you’re always on top of your make-up game as touch-ups are made easy.
- Nabilas aim is to accentuate natural beauty rather than cover it up.
- Her formulations are absolutely lightweight, and all foundations blend effortlessly.
- The Zero make-up palette comes in different color ranges to suit our vast spectrum of complexions.
- Zero make-up is also available at Bloomingdales Dubai.
What are the cons?
- Nabila’s make-up range is slightly on the higher side price wise, so the average shopper might find it to be slightly out of their range.
- Though she has produced her range with a minimalistic approach in mind (which for some is a good thing),The average consumer might feel restricted, especially if they’re looking to broaden their variety of make-up.
Nadia Hussain
The Multi-Talented Beauty Business Owner, with her Make-up line, an eminent model, actress, and businesswoman, Nadia Hussain, has created a name in the beauty business and runs many salons nationwide. Nadia’s make-up range is designed and produced with the average woman in mind.
She has produced a larger range of make-up that is pocket-friendly, has high-quality formulas, and bright, flamboyant colors, as well as popular nudes.
Her most popular items are the liquid lipsticks, which come in a matte finish, her NH PRO primer, which promises to extend your foundation wear and produce a flawless canvas for you to work on, and for that gorgeous glittery glow that one can’t do without—NH face glow highlighter! Which provides that shine from within.
What are the pros of Nadia's make-up range?
- Nadia’s make-up range is very affordable, which makes it easy for the average woman to get her hands on.
- Her make-up range is vast, which gives consumers a lot of variety.
- Dark and strong, vivid shades – for those who like a stronger, heavier look.
- Nadia’s make-up range is said to be highly pigmented.
What are the cons of Nadia's make-up range?
- Consumers notice that the texture and consistency of liquid lipsticks are never uniform; there are a lot of decrepancies, which can be off-putting for a regular buyer.
- Some of the highly pigmented make-up can sometimes leave stains after being removed.
- Although Nadia’s brand is quickly expanding, it’s still not available abroad, which leaves some of her avid followers with an upsetting void.
Conflicts among Nabila and Nadia Hussain
Although both Nabila and Nadia Hussain are well-known personalities in the cosmetics business, their working relationship hasn’t always been perfect. Some noteworthy disputes between the two follow here.
In 2021 their dispute over product similarity.
When Nadia started her own brand of make-up, which included a contour and highlighter combo like Nabila offers, one of the most discussed issues was that Nadia’s marketing approach and product design were quite similar to those of Nabila’s Zero Make-up line. This sparked a furious debate on social media as both sides maintained their originality and charged one another with copying.
The conflict grew more intense when Nadia Hussain, in an interview, said she loved Nabila’s work but felt her brand’s goods lacked originality enough to have a market advantage. Nabila, who expressed her disappointment on social media, felt this remark did not fit her. The conversation spurred a discussion among their supporters about the strengths of every brand as they adopted sides.
Public Declarations and Clarifications:
Both Nabila and Nadia responded to the concerns by making public remarks elucidating their stances. Nabila underlined her years of expertise and the uniqueness of her brand philosophy, while Nadia underlined her attempts to satisfy a new market niche with special product characteristics and reasonable costs.
With their individual approaches and ideas, Nabila and Nadia Hussain have both greatly added to the Pakistani beauty scene. There’s something for everyone, whether your taste is for the understated, natural look of Nabila’s Zero Make-up or the vivid, strong choices from Nadia Hussain’s range. Though fascinating, the debates also draw attention to the competitive nature of the beauty business and the fervent love these people have for their profession.
