Make Up Artist Uses Hijab to Transform Herself

This is Saraswati. You might know her better as Queen of Luna.

Saraswati, a Malaysian make up artist, has taken the Internet by storm this week, and for good reason.

The Umbrella Corps artist shot to Instagram fame recently for using her insane makeup skills and her hijab to transform herself into various well-known characters.

From Disney princesses to comic book villains and even celebrities, Queen of Luna as she's known on Instagram, uses her brushes, hijabs, and even a few colored contacts to transform herself from a self-proclaimed super mom of two to the characters of our wildest dreams.

The proud "Disnerd", comic geek, and metal head has a whopping 152,000 Instagram followers and 300 posts as of Saturday, February 27.

In a time when it is hard for many to be openly Muslim without being judged, this Lord of the Rings fan isn't hiding behind her hijab, she's using it as a tool to bravely show her incredible talents.

If you haven't seen her yet, prepare to be blown away. Take a look at some of our favorites.

Here she is as Ariel from Disney's The Little Mermaid, fork and all.


The beauty, or rather Belle, from Disney's Beauty and the Beast

Everyone's favorite side-kick, Tinkerbell from Disney's Peter Pan

And for the younger princesses, Elsa from Disney's Frozen

Saraswati didn't wait for Disney to give her a Muslim princess to look like, she made herself into the ones Disney's already gave her. (Side note: Disney, can you get on this already?)


Check her out as multiple characters from Disney's Alice in Wonderland.



Not into princesses? No problem. Maybe villains are more your speed.

Over Disney? That's fine too. Here she is as multiple characters from Batman.

Middle: Catwoman
Bottom row: Harley Quinn, The Joker, Bane

DC or Marvel? You decide.

And what would any post be with out a Kardashi — er, uh, Jenner?

Saraswati is on the left. Is that a hijab or Kylie Jenner's luscious locks? We can't tell.

The reaction this artist has gotten has been as great as her makeup.

On her Belle picture, Instagram user kat3c wrote "I love love love the way you use different hijab to create the different hair styles and colors!!! SO GREAT!! "

The best part? She takes requests!

Seriously, we can't wait to see more of what this Queen has got up her sleeve, either.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
