Do you have any favourite drugstore skincare products?

I really love the new L'Oréal clay masks. I have all three and they work so good!

hi :-) how did u start modelling?

I got scouted. I never grew up thinking I could become a model or anything like that. I had actually applied to uni but modelling took off so I ended up withdrawing my application

[neelamkg]

what's your background? is your family/parents muslim?

No, they're Sikh

[neelamkg]

what's your skin care routine (you look flawless!!!!)

Thank you! I swear by Sarah Chapmans products & go to her clinic for facials too when I'm in London. Other brands I love are Votary (skincare oils), Sisley & Kiehls

3 models you look up to?

Naomi Campbell, Alek Wek & Devon Aoki

Is the model industry really as bitchy and judgemental as people make it out to be?

I mean it can be, yeah. But you also meet some amazing people along the way

First off, you're so beautiful and level headed and so well put together, i'm so glad brown girls like myself have someone like you to look up to/admire, I've been following your insta for a long time and im lowkey obsessed w you. But secondly, what has it been like for you in the modeling world? have there been any challenges/accomplishments/things you've been extremely proud of? overcoming?

Thank you so much for this sweet message! Ummmm I'm obviously proud of things I've accomplished, like being the first Indian model for so many brands like Burberry & having an exclusive contract with them. But, I'm most proud of the person I am today. Even though this industry is crazy and intense and fast paced, it's really shaped me into the woman I am today & I definitely had to go through a lot to get here. Modelling forces you to grow up so quickly and teaches you so much about the world in general. You go from being a completely normal girl in school, to seeing this other side of life that you used to watch on TV/read about in magazines. I'm happy that I'm healthy - mentally & physically. And working as a model also makes me feel strong because everything is unpredictable and you develop a very thick skin. But like I said I'm grateful for it all & the opportunities that come my way because of my job

How do you maintain your thich eyebrows and lashes? :) xx

I don't do anything in particular lol I'm just Indian girl! My eyebrows have always been maddd thick. When I was growing up I was actually ashamed of it, but now I love having full eyebrows. Thin eyebrows wouldn't suit me
