Boston-based Mina Hasan is a name you’ve definitely come across in the past, especially if you have a habit of scrolling down TikTok or Instagram to watch calming beauty rituals, minimal fashion looks, or flawless makeup tutorials. Add to this her penchant for art and her South Asian heritage, the trendsetter is a fave on social media for a reason.

The last thing I splurged on that was actually worth it…
Mina Hasan: The Dyson Air Wrap! I got it for myself as a birthday present, and it’s proven to be so good for minimal heat damage.
The book I recommend to all my friends…
Mina Hasan: Awks… the last book I read was Perfume by Patrick Süskind for a philosophy course 2 years ago, it was an interesting read about chasing perfection, but it includes murder and gore so it might not the best recommendation 😂.
Perfume – Patrick Süskind, Dhs 65
This album is hands down my favorite right now…
Mina Hasan: The Weeknd’s album, Dawn FM. I love the song ‘Out of Time’.
A snack that I need to have next to me (like, at all times)…
Mina Hasan: Cornflakes. The crunch is so satisfying.
During the summer I always wear…
Mina Hasan: Trouser shorts. They pair well with everything while still looking classy.
H&M Khaki Green Linen-Blend Shorts, Dhs 169
I start every morning with this one product…
Mina Hasan: The Youth to The People Green Tea cleanser, it leaves my face feeling so fresh and ready for the day.
YTTP Kale + Green Tea Spinach Vitamins Cleanser, Dhs 190
This home décor item is simply non-negotiable…
Mina Hasan: I tufted a rug with my own design in Pakistan with my preferred colour palette, it’s a cute piece and a constant reminder of a fun experience.
A TikTok trend that I’ll never not be obsessed with…
Mina Hasan: Eid transitions! I love when Muslim TikTok takes over any niche transition trend, it always makes me feel like we’re allowed to partake in these trends without judgment.

The TikTok audio that has me in a chokehold…
Mina Hasan: Kali – Area Codes. It’s perfect for makeup transitions and lip-syncing while doing GRWM’s.
I simply must travel with _____ or I’ll *freak* out
Mina Hasan: My shampoo and conditioner, specifically the hair cleanser and conditioner from Shaz and Kiks! I love Ayurvedic, clean beauty products for my dandruff… and I cannot risk having bad hair on vacation 🙅🏽♀️
