Pakistan’s first beauty blogger based in Islamabad with Down syndrome, Ridda Zahra Naqvi, has garnered a great fan following since she started uploading her video tutorials on Instagram. She has been praised for her efforts widely, not just by the masses but also by Pakistani celebrities. Reportedly, her first makeup tutorial video went viral on Instagram.
Ridda’s first video appeared on Instagram on February 7, which her sister uploaded. Up to date, the video accumulated 817,000 views, 75,000 likes, and 12,400 comments on Instagram. Stars that have commented on the video include Sadaf Kanwal, Ayesha Omar, Sana Javed, Zara Noor Abbas and many more. Other than that, popular influencers also left comments on Ridda’s first post, so the 16-year-old star stays motivated and creates similar content on the platform.
Ridda spoke to Arab news exclusively and told them that she enjoys the comments on the video the most as they make her really happy. She said,
“I enjoy the comments the most. They make me really happy.”
Ridda currently has 43.3 k followers on Instagram, which are increasing by the minute. Her sister Alina Naqvi described the response of the crowd saying the following count is a welcome surprise. According to the news outlet, brands have approached Ridda to collaborate with her and create brand content.
Ridda said she liked make-up artistry, though she also wanted to branch out into other fields. She said, “I like making videos a lot and being a makeup artist, but I also plan to be a photographer and go into teaching as well.”
