Wow! @Rachel Cobb, it's much more than just a little too good! I love and believe in her talent and art that there is no room for doubt! At the top of the page it does explain you'd have to see it to believe it, she really is magically talented and it shows it even further with this one because of the gloss and contour etc that she puts her time and talent into. We obviously haven't seen her full potential! I'm sure if she wasn't a Muslim she would have put make up on her body to look just like the clothing! She's great, in every aspect of the word!!!

Wow! Legit, props to Saraswati!! I'm very impressed at how shes incorporated the Hijab!
Doesn't making the hijab look like hair completely defeat the purpose (hiding ones hair)?
It does, the stated idea of hijab in the Koran is to not draw attention to yourself, which is the exact opposite of what is being done here. Having said that, using a veil as a fashion accessory is quite common. For some people its about identity rather than religious conviction.
Load More Replies...Why can't everybody appreciate and applaud her talent rather than judging her religion, gender or whatever.
That's interesting.. a muslim girl with name of the Hindu goddess of knowledge , music, art, wisdom, and learning. ..
It's a common thing in Malaysia. Since many Indian-Malaysian bring their religion and culture to the country, some other Malaysian adopt their culture also. It's a multicultural country that respect their fellow citizen no matter what their race and religion.

I don't know who many of these characters are, but the work the artist does is incredible. Very talented. I stopped even noticing the headscarf.
In was ready to downvote because there are too many posts like this here and most of them don't bring anything new. But this one was actually new and creative so I upvoted.
PETITION TO CAST HER AS A MAIN CHARACTER IN AT LEAST ONE LIVE ACTION MOVIE.
Given that she's Malay, I believe what she's wearing is technically a "tudong" and not a "hijab".
And, what about the women who choose to wear them? You know, for religious reasons? Why do people think it's okay to dictate how others choose to wear their religious symbols? I would suggest you ask these women how they actually feel before assigning them their emotions, and assuming you know everything about these women's choices.
Load More Replies...Her makeup skills are unbelievable I can’t imagine how long it took but all the styles that she wore the hijab in were so interesting and it’s really cool. She’s so talented!
The Hijab shouldn't be used to draw attention, it should be used to maintain modesty. This is wrong.
as a non religious person l have no problem at all with women wearing the hijab..what l cannot stand is the burka..we as humans communicate verbally about 50%, but part of our speech is visual too..we communicate with our facial expressions & with our hands..how can you hold a conversation with somebody who's face and hands you cannot see ??, and my apologies to those with vision impairment..
I love the creativity and pure talent of all of these. I guess I don't understand why dressing up like demons and evil gods is ok, but exposing your real hair is a sin. Religion is weird.
I am a lot less impressed with her hijab than I am with her ability to make her face look exactly like a cartoon figure. Her make up abilities are amazing.
Oh my gosh, this makeup art is seriously good. She is so creative at using the hijab and is so talented. Her eyes and freckles are just so beautiful and the makeup really distracts from the fact that the rest of her body is covered.
am I the only one to notice that Lizzy Potter commented on almost all the images
You are so good at makeup art that I'm crying and your eyes are so shiny!!!!!
Everyone criticising how or why she wears her hijab: why do you need to tell women what they should wear? It affects you absolutely ZERO
she clearly has talent, but i find it funny that she did every powerpuff girl.. EXCEPT buttercup XD
It is beyond problematic when people create pictures and even articles like this, attempting to normalize the Hijab, an instrument of oppression and a way to hold women back and keep them down. Its not cool on any level. And her religion would NOT be okay with any of this either. So... the people who see the Muslim religion for what it truly is and the people who follow the religion as well would both have a problem w this. She should use her makeup skills to do something worthwhile because she does have talent. Of course, just wearing this much makeup and being this good at it is a problem for their religion too...
they need to make an Islamic princess....show the struggle, and hate they go through each day
You mistaken Islam with Arab. Those are two different things entirely. She's a Malaysian muslim with her own culture that is very much different than Arabian culture. For example, her name "Saraswati" is actually the name of Hindu Goddess. There are no "struggle, hate" or whatever you think she's been through each day for being Malaysian muslim. The only hate I see is your comment.
Load More Replies...If she's ok with it then it is of no consequence what strangers think she should be doing...
Load More Replies...and then she was dragged into the street and beaten to death for being a whore. f**k islam
These people are sick. Stop glorifying people who treat women like subhumans.
There is more than black and white in the world.
Load More Replies...so if a woman chooses herself to wear a hijab, she is not allowed to use it in a creative way? Just because some oppress women to wear them, doesn't mean, that it's a symbol of oppression. Other so it, because they want to.
Load More Replies...I’m actually not getting a Photoshop vibe from many of these. I’m just seeing some really impressive makeup skills and use of coloured contacts to enhance and “change” the shape of her eyes.
Load More Replies...maybe Islam has some problematic traditions however criticizing women who make the choice to wear part of their identity is wrong on many levels.
Load More Replies...you seemed passionate enough to make this comment. just let people enjoy things.
Load More Replies...Someone's triggered by someone else's talent. BTW, your uneducated racism is showing. You might want to check that at the door!
