About Us
Who We Are
Modern Opulent Gazette (MOG) was founded in 2024 because, like you, we are deeply passionate about fashion, beauty, business, and wellness. We don’t like to be put in a box, but if you must categorize us, we seamlessly blend fashion and business—because we believe in making smart moves while looking and feeling incredible. Whether you’re staying ahead of the latest runway trends, elevating your skincare routine, enhancing your fitness goals, or mastering entrepreneurship and financial management, MOG is your go-to destination.
At MOG, we are committed to creating an inclusive space that celebrates diverse voices and the unique beauty and creativity found in all of us. We explore everything from testing the latest face moisturizers for radiant skin to curating the perfect dinner date outfit, uncovering weight loss and muscle gain trends, discovering dream vacation destinations, delving into the history of braids, and offering expert insights into leadership, entrepreneurship, and the lifestyles of A-list celebrities to inspire you.
Our mission is simple: to provide knowledge, resources, inspiration, and connections to help you achieve a modern, opulent life.
Community Guidelines
We encourage thoughtful discussions in our comments section. However, we do not tolerate offensive language, hate speech, personal attacks, defamatory statements, false advertising, or spammy content. Comments may not always be available on all stories, and we reserve the right to delete them without notice. Repeat offenders may be banned at our discretion. Our moderation decisions are final.
Diversity Pledge
At MOG, we stand for equality and inclusivity. Diversity is at the heart of everything we do, and we are committed to taking actionable steps to ensure representation across all our content.
We pledge to:
-
Feature at least 50% diverse individuals in our roundups and galleries, including at least 50% BIPOC imagery in beauty, hair, makeup, and business galleries.
-
Prioritize darker shades for product imagery and list complexion products from dark to light for accurate representation.
-
Be transparent about the inclusivity of brands we feature—if a brand lacks diversity in its product range, we will call it out.
-
Continuously hire diverse contributors to share their voices on our platform beyond just topics related to their backgrounds.
-
Curate inclusive beauty inspiration across our social media platforms, booking diverse talent for covers, features, and interviews.
-
Hold ourselves accountable, admit missteps if we fall short, and actively work towards greater inclusivity.
The beauty and fashion industries have immense influence, and we recognize the responsibility we have to ensure representation is not just a trend, but a permanent standard.
