"Unesikhumba esigqibeleleyo!" okanye "Yintoni inkqubo yakho yokukhathalela ulusu?" ngamabinzana amabini endingazange ndicinge ukuba umntu unokuze athethe kum. Kodwa ekugqibeleni, emva kweminyaka yamabala anenkani, ulusu lwam kunye nam siseluxolweni kwaye abantu bayaqaphela. Andikwazi ukuthatha ikhredithi epheleleyo, nangona kunjalo; konke oku kungenxa yengcali yam ye-esthetician. Kwaye kuya kufuneka ndinamathele ku "enkosi" kuba ukuncamisa iinyawo zakhe akuhambelani nezithintelo ze-COVID.

Ndiqale ndagqiba kwelokuba ndibone i-esthetician kuba ndizakutshata kungekudala kwaye ndifuna ukugcina inkcazo "cakey" yedessert, hayi eyam makeup. Kodwa kungakhathaliseki ukuba yintoni ukuhlamba ubuso okanye i-serum okanye i-moisturizer endiye ndazama ngayo, andizange ndikwazi ukugungqa ukuphuma. Isilevu sam kunye nebunzi lalihlala lingumzi-mveliso onamaqhakuva, kwaye kwakude kudala emva kokuba imiyalelo yemaski yobhubhane isusiwe, ndandisazamana nemaski. Ke, ndiye ndaphatha ukufumana i-esthetician yam njengokuphatha ezinye izinto: uphando olubanzi lweGoogle kunye nokukhetha eyona ndlela ifikelelekayo, endikhokelele eGlowbar.

Wonke umntu ongena ngokwesiqhelo ukhetha i-Glowbar kuba sinikezela ngonyango lwesiqhelo, kodwa kwakhona siye sakhupha i-fluff ebusweni ngoko ke iyasebenza kakhulu,” utshilo uRachel Liverman, ingcali yezobuhle ezinelayisenisi kunye nomseki kunye ne-CEO yeGlowbar kwisiXeko saseNew York. ULiverman wenze imodeli yeGlowbar ukuba ibe lula kakhulu; ubhukisha qho ngenyanga yemizuzu engama-30 yokuqeshwa ngeedola ezingama-55, ngaphandle kokongeza okanye iindleko ezothusayo, ngelixa usenziwa ngokwezifiso ngokupheleleyo kwiimfuno zolusu lwakho. (Ukuba ukhe waya kufuna ubuso kwaye waba ne-low-key ulusu-ehlazweni ekuchitheni amakhulu eedola kunyango olongezayo, uyazi ukuba ingakanani into etshintsha umdlalo.) Ngokomxholo, amaxabiso obuso kwenye indawo ngesiqhelo ukusuka kwi-$40-$50 yemizuzu engama-30 "express" ebusweni ukuya kuthi ga kwi-$200-$250 (okanye ngaphezulu) kunyango lwemizuzu engama-90 usebenzisa itekhnoloji yefancier kunye neemveliso, ngokutsho kwedatha evela kwiThumbtack, iqonga elikuvumela ukuba uqeshe iingcali kuyo nantoni na evela. ukucoca indlu ukuya kuthambisa.

I-FYI, i-esthetician ayifani ncam nokubona ugqirha wesikhumba - kukho indawo yazo zombini kwindlela yakho yesiqhelo, kodwa inokusebenzela iinjongo ezahlukeneyo. Ukutyelela ugqirha wesikhumba kuhlala kungumbono olungileyo wokufumana ulusu lonyaka, ukusombulula naziphi na iimpawu zolusu okanye iimpendulo, okanye ukuphatha nayiphi na "imiba emikhulu ngesikhumba sakho enjengezidudla ezijongeka zimnandi okanye iimeko zolusu zokwenyani ezinokunyangwa kuphela ngamayeza kagqirha okanye uhlobo oluthile lonyango, utshilo uLiverman. I-Estheticians, kwelinye icala, inokukunceda ukuba ujongane nezinto ezininzi zesikhumba ezibandakanya i-acne, i-hyperpigmentation, ubuntununtunu, kunye nokuguga, kunye nokubonelela ngengxelo engaguqukiyo malunga nendlela yokunyamekela ulusu lwakho. (Akululanga ncam ukufumana ingqesho yokumisa inyanga nenyanga kunye nederm yakho ukuze uthethe malunga neemveliso zokhathalelo lolusu.)

Kule meko, ndaye ndagqiba kwelokuba ndibone ugqirha wezilwanyana ngokuchasene nodokotela wesikhumba kuba umzabalazo wam wamaqhakuva wayephezulu kakhulu. Ndizibonile iidermatologists kwi-acne eyadlulayo, kwaye bancoma ukunxiba i-makeup encinci endaweni yokundinika iyeza elomeleleyo, kodwa ndaziva ngathi kukho enye into edlalayo. Emva kokuzama ukuzicingela ngokwam, yayilixesha lokuba ndifumane ingcebiso kwenye ingcali yokhathalelo lolusu. U-Liverman uthe abathengi abaninzi baziva ngaloo ndlela ngaphambi kokuba bongeze i-esthetician kwiqela labo lokuzinyamekela.

Ngethuba lokundwendwela kwam okokuqala eGlowbar, ndaxelela i-esthetician yam, "Ndinesikhumba esibuthathaka kakhulu, kwaye ndiyaphuka ngalo lonke ixesha, ke ndiyaqinisekisa ukukhupha yonke imihla." Ndikhumbula ndiziva ndizingca kakhulu ngale nto, phantse ngathi, "uyabona, ndiwenzile umsebenzi wam wasekhaya- ndinike inkwenkwezi yegolide, nceda!" Jonga uloyiko ebusweni bakhe. Uphefumle kancinci emva koko wachaza ukuba kungenzeka ukuba kukukhutshwa kwam okugqithisileyo ebangela ukuqhambuka. Oko, kunye nam isigidi-Inyathelo lesiqhelo lokukhathalela ulusu. Undibuze uluhlu lweemveliso zokhathalelo lolusu endizisebenzisileyo, emva koko ndahamba ngento nganye ndaza ndachaza ukuba zeziphi iimveliso ekufuneka ndizilahlile, endinokuqhubeka ndizisebenzisa yonke imihla, kwaye ndisebenzise eziphi na iintsuku ezimbalwa. Umzekelo, wandixelela ukuba ndinike ikhefu le-vitamin C yam ngenxa yokuba yonke into yokukhupha kunye ne-asidi ekwi-serum yayicaphukisa ulusu lwam. (Jonga: Iimpawu zokusebenzisa iiMveliso zobuhle ezininzi kakhulu)

Ukuba ibiyinduduzo kumkhwa wam ombi, ndiye ndafunda ukuba andindedwa kwimpazamo yam. "Ngaphezulu kwama-75 ukuya kuma-80 eepesenti zabathengi abeza emnyango ukuze bafumane unyango okokuqala bayagqithisa kakhulu ekhaya, utshilo uLiverman. Ngenxa yoku, uninzi lwabantu lucinga ukuba lunolusu "olubuthathaka", ngelixa, enyanisweni, lubangela ubuntununtunu obuxeliweyo. Enye impazamo eqhelekileyo? Ukuthenga eyona bhotile intle okanye intle kwishelufu ngaphandle kokwazi ukuba ezo mveliso zilulungele na ulusu lwakho, okanye zisenokusabela nezinye iimveliso kwindlela yakho, utshilo u-Liverman. (Kwelo nqaku, ngaba ufuna ngokwenene ifriji yokunyamekela ulusu?)

Andiyi kuxoka, emva kokufunda zonke ezi ngcebiso, ndaziva ndineentloni - kodwa kwakhona ndakhululeka ukuba ndisezandleni ezilungileyo. Bendingazi ukuba bendingakanani, ndingathi, ndikhohliswe ekuthengeni iimveliso ngenxa yentengiso ye-savvy kunye nentengiso esefashonini. Kwakhona, kunqabile ukuba usebenzise inkonzo apho ushiya uxelelwa ukuba uthenge zimbalwa iimveliso endaweni yezinye. (Umphefumlo womoya omtsha, ngaba ndilungile?)

Kuxhomekeka kugqirha oya kuye, unokulindela iindlela ezahlukeneyo zonyango kunye neenkonzo ezinokuba lula okanye zinzima njengoko ungathanda. Ukugcina imodeli yemizuzu engama-30 yeGlowbar, ababoneleli ngazo naziphi na iinkonzo ezineenaliti okanye ii-lasers njengezinye ii-studio, ii-spas kunye nee-salon. U-Liverman ufanisa ukuqeshwa kwe-Glowbar kumsebenzi wokuzilolonga kuba i-esthetician iya kuqala "ngokufudumala" okufutshane, ngokuvavanya iimfuno zesikhumba sakho ngaloo mini. Emva koko kuza inxenye yokusebenza nzima. Ingayindlela yokukhutshwa, ukukhutshwa, okanye imaski yokuthomalalisa. Ukukhutshelwa kuyeyona nxalenye iluncedo kuhambo lwam oluya eGlowbar kuba kunzima ukuba ndingazikhethi kwiikhithi zam. Nangona kunjalo, xa uvelisa amaqhakuva akho kunokudala ukunqabana kwamabala okanye kube mandundu ngakumbi ukuphuma. Ugqirha we-esthetician uqeqeshelwe ukukhupha ngokufanelekileyo i-sebum kwi-pimple, ukunqanda ukusuleleka kunye nezibazi. (Ukuba ufuna ukukholisa ngakumbi, ibali lomfazi eloyikisayo malunga neepimples ze-DIY ziyakwenza ukuba ungalokothi ufune ukuchukumisa ubuso bakho kwakhona.) Kufutshane nokuphela kokuqeshwa, i-Glowbar isebenzisa unyango olukhanyayo lwe-LED, oluye lwaboniswa ukunceda kwimveliso ye-collagen kunye iqhakuva. Banokukubeka phantsi kwemaski ebomvu ye-anti yonyango lokuguga okanye imaski eluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka ye-acne. Emva koko kukho indawo "epholileyo" yeseshoni xa uxoxa malunga nendlela yokunyamekela ulusu lwakho ekhaya.

Ukuqala kwam ukuya eGlowbar, i-esthetician yayiza kunyanga ulusu lwam olugqithisileyo kunye neemaski zokuthambisa kwaye isebenzise imaski eluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka ebusweni bam kunyango lwamabala. Emva kokuqeshwa kwam okokuqala, ndive umahluko okhawulezileyo eluswini lwam, enkosi kulo zombini unyango kunye nenkqubo yam eyenziwe lula ekhaya-kwaye ngalo lonke ixesha ndibuyela umva ibangcono. Ngoku, kwiinyanga ezisixhenxe kulwalamano lwam olunomdla neGlowbar, ndifumana ukukhutshwa rhoqo, ukukhanya kweekhemikhali, kwaye ndiphumelele kwimask ebomvu ye-LED. Ngexesha lokuqeshwa kwam kutsha nje, nditsibe i-extractions ndazama i-dermaplaning, elunyango olususa ukwakheka kwesikhumba esifileyo kunye neenwele zobuso ezintle ngencakuba. (I-Dermaplaning eneneni yindlela ezinye i-celebs, ezinje ngeGabrielle Union, ezilufumana ngayo ulusu olungenasiphako. "Sineendidi [zeepele], enye yazo yeyokufaka umbala kwi-hyper, kwaye ndishiya ndijongeka ngathi ndiginye ibhalbhu yokukhanyisa, utshilo. "Yenza ulusu lwakho luqaqambe kwaye luqaqambe kwaye ndiyalithanda ithowuni yolusu ngaphezu kwayo nayiphi na into."

Ukuba awuzange ucinge ngokubona i-esthetician okanye ungaqinisekanga ukuba kufanelekile, uLiverman uyifanisa nembono yokuzinika ukucoca amazinyo. "Awungekhe ucoce amazinyo akho ekhaya, ke nokuba unganakho kuphela ukubona ugqirha wama-esthetician kabini ngonyaka [njengoko ubuya kwenza kugqirha wamazinyo], yenze loo nto. Okwangoku, hlamba ubuso bakho, uhlambe ubuso, kwaye usebenzise i-SPF yonke imihla yonyaka- iintsuku ezingama-365, utshilo. Usebenza ekwandiseni iGlowbar kwilizwe liphela, kodwa ukuba awunayo kufutshane nawe, thetha nakowuphi na umntu ohlonelwayo, wase-esthetician wendawo malunga neemfuno zakho zolusu kunye nolindelo.

Emva kweenyanga nje ezimbalwa, andifundanga kuphela malunga neempazamo ezininzi malunga nolusu lwam, kodwa sele ndizibonile iziphumo ezinkulu. Ngapha koko, ndinxibe i-makeup encinci (i-mascara ifakiwe, enkosi kwi-eyelash tint yamva nje). Kwaye ukuba awukwazi ukubona i-esthetician konke konke-eyona nto ndiyithathileyo kukuba: Xa ungathandabuzeki, gcina indlela yakho elula, kwaye ungathengi imveliso kuba intle.
