Umkhwa we #NoMakeup sele utshayela amajelo eendaba ezentlalo ixesha elithile. Abantu abadumileyo abafana no-Alicia Keys kunye no-Alessia Cara baye bathatha i-makeup-free kwikhaphethi ebomvu, bekhuthaza abasetyhini ukuba bamkele iziphene zabo. (Nantsi into eyenzekileyo xa umhleli wethu wobuhle wazama indlela yokuhombisa.)

Ngelixa sonke simalunga nabasetyhini abaziqhelisa ukuzithanda, ukukhuthaza ubuso obungenanto ngelishwa kudale enye imonster eyayo: i-make-up shaming.

Iitroli bezisoloko zikhukula imithombo yeendaba zentlalo kunye nezimvo ezihlazisa abo bakhetha ukomelela okuqinileyo, ingxelo yeliso, okanye umlomo onenkalipho, besithi zonke ezi mveliso ziyindlela nje yokufihla ukungazithembi kwakho. Ibhlogi elungileyo yomzimba UMichelle Elman ulapha ukukuxelela ngenye indlela. (Inxulumene: Nantsi into ebangela ukuba ndingasoze ndixelele nabani na ukuba ayeke ukunxiba i-Makeup)

Kwiposti ekwabelwana ngayo kunyaka ophelileyo ethe yavela kwakhona nge-Instagram, uElman wabelane ngecala-ngecala lefoto yobuso bakhe kunye nomyalezo onamandla nokhuthazayo. Ifoto engasekhohlo ibonisa ukuba unxibe izithambiso ezinamagama "body positive" abhalwe apha ngasentla, ngelixa elinye limbonisa ngaphandle kokwenza makeup ngamagama "still body positive" ngaphezulu.

"Ukulungelwa komzimba akukuthinteli ekuthambiseni, ukucheba naliphi na ilungu lomzimba wakho, ukunxiba izithende, ukusweleka kweenwele zakho, ukukhupha amashiya akho [okanye] nabuphi na ubuhle obufuna ukuthatha inxaxheba kubo," ubhale watsho kwiifoto. "Abasetyhini abanemizimba emihle banxiba izithambiso ngalo lonke ixesha. Umahluko kukuba asithembekanga ekunxibeni. AKUFUNI ukuba sizive sibahle kuba siyazi ukuba sibahle ngendalo okanye ngaphandle kwayo." (Eyeleleneyo: 'I-Constellation Acne' YiNdlela eNtsha yabasetyhini ababamba ngayo ulusu lwabo)

Isithuba sika-Elman sicacisa ukuba abantu basetyhini banako, enyanisweni, ukuhlala benomzimba kwaye bathande ukuzilungisa. "Asisebenzisi ukufihla nantoni na," wabhala. "Asiyisebenzisi ukugubungela amabala ethu, amabala okanye amabala amabala. Asiyisebenzisi ukuze sibonakale njengomnye umntu. Siyisebenzisa xa sifuna ukuyisebenzisa."

Ekupheleni kosuku, uElman usikhumbuza ukuba ukomelela komzimba kuthetha ukulawula umzimba wakho ngokwenza oko kukonwabisa. “Ukulunga komzimba kuthetha ukuba singabanini bencwadi yomthetho xa isiza ebusweni bethu nasemizimbeni yethu,” wabhala uElman. "Ukuzithemba komzimba kukhetho. Ithi kufuneka sikhethe ukuthambisa okanye hayi."

Ukwenza okanye ukungazenzi, u-Elman ufuna ukuba abantu basetyhini bazi ukuba eyona nto ibalulekileyo kukwenza into ebenza bazive bonwabile kwaye bangakhathali nokuba uluntu lunokucinga ntoni ngokhetho lwalo. "Umhle zombini iindlela," utshilo. "Uyakundibona ndiphuma ndiphuma kumabali wam kwiintsuku ezininzi, ejimini, ndisiya ezintlanganisweni, ndiphila ubomi bam ... kwaye uyakundibona ndibeka izithambiso. Ndinelungelo kubo bobabini."
