K-Beauty, Natural Hair & Beauty Editor Ethics Ft. Siraad Dirshe

Naked Beauty

This goes out to the true beauty junkies! Siraad is a girl with a 10-step beauty routine, who lives for Korean skincare and travels with her own silk pillow-case. She’s currently a beauty editor at Essence and she has incredible product knowledge but what I find even more impressive — her general attitude and approach towards beauty. She’s really inspired me to try new things!


We talk:

- how she graduated with a psychology and communications degree, worked in finance and then found herself transitioning to a new career in beauty at 28

- Korean skin-care & our desire to move to Japan and be teenagers

- The SWAGGER level in Korea & Japan & surprising level of black culture love

- Working with women of color

-Brands that don’t understand the Essence reader

- The ethics of being a beauty editor

- Me being a kitchen beautician

- Her natural hair journey

- maximum hydration method (not sustainable)

- the silk pillowcase & throwback memories to dominican hairdressers heating your hair

- Stanning for Pat McGrath - Dying natural hair & hair shaming in the natural hair community

- Oil cleanses & I finally learn what essences are (they’re huge in K-Beauty so they’ll get popular in the US in 6 months to a year)

- Sunscreens and eye creams & much much more
