A decade ago, TheLineUp’s Julia Dang and Maya Nilsen were just young girls who created a channel in hope to have an outlet for their interest and passion. Now, both are established creatives who’re working with some of the industry’s most coveted brands — and still, choose to speak up on their advocacies and social issues.
“We have a lot to speak on this, but would advocate to free Palestine and so many other countries and people that do not have freedom and basic human rights, equality, facing racism and discrimination to say the least,” they shared with MEGA. “For world leaders to acknowledge global change and push policies and laws to protect instead of further exploiting the environment.”
In this month’s Beauty Blog, Julia Dang and Maya Nilsen revisit The LineUp: the beauty of growing up together, pursuing things apart, and reviving the platform that first brought them acclaim.

Leni Robredo continues to highlight the importance of challenging oneself to take up space and embrace change. From power dressing in law to the casual approachability of public service, her style has always been about purpose, not just perception.
As she continues her advocacy beyond politics, she points out identity and purpose are not confined to colors but are defined by the work we choose to do.
At the link in bio, Leni reveals why she didn’t initally chose pink to be her color.
Leni Robredo wears MaxMara coat, Comme des Garçons top and bottom, Maison Margiela coat, Sacaiskirt, JW Anderson coat, COS dress, Arnel Papa bangles, Tiffany & Co. earrings, and Roger Vivier shoes
