Salama Mohamed Announces Her Engagement: Everything To Know About Her Radiant New Chapter
Photo:@salamamohameD, Instagram We all know and love Salama Mohamed, the mum of two, all-around powerhouse, and radiant skincare mogul. She's one of the most authentic voices to come out of the region in years. But this week, the woman who's taught us all how to glow from the inside out just shared a major life update: she's engaged. Yes, you read that right, engaged. And the internet? Well, we're here for it. A Love Story (This Time, for Her) With Salama being in the spotlight, her love life has, in many ways, played out in front of a very public audience. Her previous marriage to Khalid Al Ameri made her one of the region's most well-known couples, full of laughs, relatable moments, and a lot of love. So, when they announced their divorce in 2024, it came as a huge shock. No one saw it coming. Instead of shying away from it all, Salama did what Salama does best: she confronted it head-on, with grace, humour, and more honesty than we ever see online. Somewhere in between raising her boys, building her skincare brand Peacefull, and redefining what self-love looks like post-divorce, something quietly shifted. She found her peace, and now, she's found love again. A Proposal That Matches Her Energy Photo: @salamamohamed, Instagram Stories Salama revealed the news with effortless elegance, no words, no explanation, just a single Instagram story: her hand in his with the ring dazzling. A flawless hard launch. No elaborate post, just quiet confidence and undeniably chic. Since she uploaded the story late on Tuesday, the internet has been buzzing, and honestly, we couldn't be happier for her. It was the best sort of surprise: elegant and unexpected. Who is the new mystery man? So far, the Emirati entrepreneur is keeping that under wraps, having just shared the simple photo of the ring, as she held hands with her future husband, presumably. As for the wedding, we are so excited to see this unfold. Whether she goes for something intimate or shares the journey with us, there's one thing for certain: she's writing this chapter entirely on her terms.

Jet-Set, Glow: The GRAZIA Guide To The Best In-Flight Beauty Essentials
Photo: @aimeesmalex, Instagram There's something about being above the clouds that changes everything. One minute you're glowing, the next your skin tightens mid-flight, and your energy has been left on the runway. Blame it on the recycled air, the fluorescent lighting, or that pre-boarding espresso that seemed like a good idea at the time. But what if your hand luggage worked a little smarter? With the right edit of travel-sized essentials, you can stay hydrated, calm, and halfway put together somewhere up above the clouds. We've sifted through endless beauty products to bring you a routine that *actually* does something at 30,000 feet. No complicated routines, just products that overdeliver and fit neatly into your hand luggage. Think fewer products, better formulas, and zero fuss. A hard-working balm that doubles as a highlighter. A hydrating mist that feels like air-con for your skin. A soothing oil to smooth out turbulence. Streamlined, effective, and travel-approved. So, whether you're escaping to London this summer or to the Greek islands or further afield to Australia, perhaps, this edit is your new flight plan for feeling fresh above the clouds. THE MUST-HAVES Cabin air is a flying moisture vacuum, so your inflight kit should do one thing above all else: lock hydration in before it's left behind. Here's what we swear by. Augustinus Bader The Rich Eye Cream Like a full night's sleep in a jar. This deeply nourishing cream is powered by peptides and the brand's signature TFC8 complex. Designed to soften fine lines, de-puff, and deeply hydrate. The rich texture melts down into the skin, leaving the eyes visibly smoother, firmer, and more radiant. SUMMER FRIDAYS UNDER EYE PATCHES Summer Fridays under-eye patches are your under-eye power move, hydrating, non-slip hydrogel patches that hug just right. Infused with caffeine and peptides, they work to de-puff, soothe, and smooth tired eyes in minutes. These are your anytime, anywhere quick fixes. Clarins Double Serum A cult classic that does it all.

This smooth silky, hydrating formula protects with SPF 50 while delivering antioxidants and Bader's tech to repair and defend. Lightweight, pore-friendly and perfect under makeup. Even in the sky you still need protection. Summer Fridays jet lag mask This product needs no introduction. The Summer Fridays Jet Lag Mask is a cult favourite amongst many, including the GRAZIA team. You can use it a multiple ways – as a moisturiser, a mask or even as an eye cream. Enriched with niacinamide to smooth and brighten, plus hyaluronic acid and glycerin for deep, lasting hydration, also features a soothing blend of Vitamin B5, chamomile, comfrey, and cucumber extract to calm and refresh tired, stressed skin day or night.

With a scalp-friendly formula and a clean finish, it keeps your blow-dry alive a little (or a lot) longer. Byredo Desert Dawn Inspired by early desert light, this fragrance is warm, spicy, and quietly powerful. Notes of pink pepper, cardamom, and musk linger beautifully on the skin; it's smooth, sultry, and quietly addictive. Chanel Gua Sha Crafted from sleek ceramic and embossed with that iconic double C, Chanel's take on gua sha is equal parts tool and treasure. It lifts, sculpts, and de-puffs with every glide. Use it post-serum to boost glow and circulation, and elevate your top shelf.
