Simi and Haze Khadra have what every it-girl wants: a beauty brand with a cult following and products that are actually really great. Since launching Simihaze Beauty in 2021, their signature stackable blushes, balms and bronzers have become IYKYK favourites – our branded content editor, Habi Diallo, for example, will now use no other blush than the Solar Tint Blush Duo. 

Alongside the good products are good values. The Palestinian twins use their platform to advocate against genocide and support humanitarian causes. “We do believe that social responsibility and having a business go hand in hand,” Simi and Haze told Dazed last year. “There’s no beauty in being neutral, that’s just not a value of ours… Beauty is power, you know, and how do you take control of that? You have to take a stand for something.”

As the brand launches into SpaceNK, Simi and Haze share their beauty routines, favourite products and affirmations for 2026.
