Iranians Boycott Huda Beauty Over Alleged Support for Regime
Huda Beauty is a popular makeup brand.
Recently, many Iranians started a boycott against it.

The protesters say the government is bad and has hurt many people.
They are throwing away Huda Beauty products and asking stores like Sephora to stop selling them.
Huda Kattan's sister even unfollowed her on social media, which some people see as support for the protesters.
