1- Q: Suntop or Vimto?
A: Suntop

A: The niqab phone cover
6- Q: Tips on how and when to use it?
A: Everyday, you can even put the Niqab in front of your face and use it as a disguise.
7- Q: What’s the inspiration behind the prints on the packaging and gift boxes?
A: The inspiration is culture, our Khaleeji culture; I am very inspired by old stories, photographs and things they used to do. We still (carry on the traditions) by doing the same thing like light the bukhoor, use an old dihnoud scent. I take these elements out of their context, I take these prints, ways of doing things, and transform it into modern art, and something that today’s modern people can still relate to.
