Abstract

A ceiling fan turned lazily above the sewing table, but the true colour in the room came from a makeshift vanity crowded with lipsticks, loose pans of pigment, and trial bottles.

One day I’ll put my own name on these,” whispered Iqah, steadying her hand as she labelled a sample jar.

Months earlier she had tried to sell a foundation and a face mist, but almost no one bought them. The disappointment lingered, but so did curiosity. Her phone chimed. An Instagram follower wrote,

Your bridal look was gorgeous. Do you sell your own products?”

She looked from the message to the scattered samples and quietly answered herself. Not yet, but soon.
