DRAGON LADY
Dragon Lady is a print beauty publication for those who don’t see themselves represented in mainstream media. A space for the marginalised, the outsiders, the eccentric nonconformists.
Eurocentric beauty ideals are constantly slapped in our faces, even in parts of the world where achieving these ideals is unrealistic. Skin-bleaching, eyelid surgeries, and models of colour out of jobs are merely physical symptoms of a singular white beauty ideal.
This magazine provides inclusive representation, self-aware reflection on popular culture, and an exploration into how beauty and makeup can shape identities, without an exclusive or commercial agenda.
