Rawan Abdullah Abu Zaid known as “Roz“ is a model and influencer is from Saudi Arabia. She currently resides in Los Angeles. Roz is the first model from Saudi Arabia to work with mainstream fashion brands like Victoria’s Secret’s PINK and Guess.

She currently boasts a cool 12.7 million followers and this makes her one of the most popular Saudi models on the platform. Also, Roz has her own makeup collaboration with brand TheBalm, which the collection is inspired by her traveling and journeys.

Tell us about yourself. What was it like to grow up in Saudi Arabia?

Growing up in Saudi was completely different than in the states. Family is incredibly
important, you don’t really move out until you start your own family. It is very traditional and Saudi people are incredibly generous and caring toward each other

Why were you interested in studying Interior Design in the US?

I love designing and decorating homes and spaces. I have a passion for all design and art
and I consider myself to be very creative.

And, what led you to become a model? Why did you want to work in this industry?

I have always dreamt of being in fashion and modeling clothes. When I was younger
. I would always play dress up and have pretend fashion shows with my cousins. I feel I
have a responsibility to use my voice to inspire young women everywhere. Being a model and having a social following
carries so much weight and responsibility. I try to use my platform for good and spreading positivity.

Tell me about a challenge you faced when modeling?

Being the first female model in Saudi was very challenging due to the religion and
culture. But I think I was able to break barriers in the most respectful way possible.

What advice would you give to aspiring models?

You have to open up your life to the public as a model and be aware of how you present 
yourself while being in the public eye. It is important to be determined and hard-working as well.

Do you have a favorite shoot you can share and why?

Every new designer I work with and new experience is incredibly exciting for my career.

What was it like to work with leading brands as Victoria’s Secret? Do you have a favorite destination trip with them you can remember?

My favorite trip I can remember is going to Big Sur. I had never gone
“glamping” before and it was such a fun adventure.

How would you describe your Instagram platform?

Fashion-forward, simple, and elegant

How would you describe your fashion style on your Instagram page?

Traveling with my friends seeing new destinations and having new experiences has been
so exciting

Traveling seems to be a big inspiration for work on Instagram and the makeup collaboration, TheBalm, tell us about that and some of your favorite destinations.

I chose The Balm because they are a women-run business and I love supporting that.
Working with that team was amazing. I also love that the prices are affordable, I have been using their makeup for a
long time as well so it felt like a perfect fit. They’re also eco-friendly, vegan, and cruelty-free which is incredibly important to me.
