The shades are named after the two distinct seasons experienced in the Maldives. The Iruvai and Hulhuganu. 

While the Iruvai monsoon blesses with sunlight and golden hours, the Hulhangu monsoon pours down beneath silver skies. 

The palette also debuts customer favorite shade, Fattaru. 

Fattaru is a traditional Maldivian necklace that is usually worn with traditional dress. 

Komas Beauty was founded by a 25-year-old Maldivian, to express her endless passion for makeup and beauty. According to her, the idea of producing a local makeup line has been on her mind for the last two years. After months of testing in 2019, the design and shades of the ‘Moodhu’ palette were finalized in January last year. 

The inspiration behind ‘Moodhu’ was to create complementary colors to flatter brown skin tones, while retaining the high pigmentation quality of upscale global brands, such as MAC or Huda Beauty.

The palette consists of 12 distinct shades. The colors vary from a range of blue, green, and neutral tones, highly reminiscent of a Maldivian seascape. The founder’s love for the Maldives is evident even in the names of the shades; names like ‘Vina’, ‘Kandu’, ‘Fattaru’ or ‘Kaashi’, which sound like an ode to our country’s natural beauty and roots.

Both the ‘Moodhu’ palette and the “Monsoon” highlighter palette are available on Island Bazaar online shop and boutique.
