Hey guys, a simple hijabi here, hope you're all well. So for today’s post I’m going to be telling you about a charity event I went too - The National Charity Beauty Workshop Tour in Manchester. It was organised by Al Fatiha Global, Syria Relief and Asian Creations.
At the even what the opportunity to learn and follow along tutorials: two makeup tutorials - a glam look and a dewy look - by the lovely Lubna Nazir, a hijab tutorial but the lovely Uzma Chaudhri and a hair tutorial but the lovely Zainab Kajee.
The tickets cost £100 and all money made was donated to Syrian refugee families in Syria. The event included the 4 tutorial sessions, a three course meal and a great evening out!!
It was hosted by Dr Shameela Islam-Zulfiqar who has done amazing things, included going to the war zone herself to help the victims in Syria.
Tickets for the Leeds/Bradford and London workshop can still be purchased on their website https://www.alfatihaglobal.com/Appeal/beauty so get one whilst you can!
The event was sponsored by many companies such as Sunnah Skincare, Burooj and more!
It was a lot of fun and I’m so glad I went because it really made me want to personally do something for the Syrians and just made it clear to me that the line of work I want to go into is charity work.
Dr Shameela gave a speech at the beginning that really inspired me, it was a real eye opener. Listening to her speech inspired me and am therefore in the process of creating a go fund me page for Syria relief, i will let you guys know if it's been accepted so keep your eyes peeled for that.
I didn't manage to take many pictures but here is a slide shows of the ones i did take.
Right at the end we got give a goody bag full of amazing things. It had a sample of cream that contains argan, honey & hibiscus; teeth whitening powder; chocolate; subway cookies & vouchers and loads more!
