Now for 18 years, the Noble is still getting used to using a wheelchair. She needs help with most events, such as treating in bed, using the bathroom and cooking. Among the tasks, she gained enough strength to do it on her own – this is she Makeup routineWhat, as she said, Buzzfeed News gave her “so much power and joy”, especially since she had done this herself since childhood for cheerleep competitions.
“Makeup, even just wash my face and brush my teeth, really helped my confidence and made me feel so good,” said Noobe. “Just an opportunity to express yourself and make your makeup as I want, I was amazing.”
A friend gave the noble some of the Guide Beauty makeup brushes, and she said that the products “changed the game”. The noble fights most of all with the use of primers and the foundation, because it is difficult to hold a sponge and repeatedly knock it with a face for uniform distribution. Poor hand control also means that when applying makeup for the eyes, it is easy to throw yourself out, so it has to put the elbows on vanity, hold the brush or pencil with both hands, and then move the head to apply the product.
“I quite often think about how easily able-bodied people do things and do not even think twice,” said Noobe. “But now that I had so many things, I realized that independence is such a beautiful and amazing gift.”
“Makeup can be a shelter for people with disabilities.”
As a cosmetologist with invisible Chronic disease21 -Brittani Kosovati became experienced in disguise in disability. For about five years, she had a chronic abdominal pain, which makes it difficult to eat and acquire enough energy to work or make her hair or makeup in the morning. She diagnosed the disease of the crown, ulcerative colitis and cyclic vomiting syndrome, among other conditions.
Working in the salons since she was a teenager, the leapswoman personally witnessed how people with disabilities turn in cosmetic spaces.
“People shuffled in the back door. People cannot climb the second floor for massage because there is no elevator, ”said a leap Epic foundation – A non -profit organization that offers support for people with chronic diseases. “Honestly, this is really dull. It is difficult for a person in a wheelchair that he cannot cope with a haircut, because we do not have a ramp or that our bathrooms cannot place them, so they must either wear a diaper or find out. ”
Knosovati often wants to be such an “angry vigilant justice,” she said to Buzzfeed News, but she should stop herself “because people simply do not understand. We must know people that there are others who do not have access to beauty, but want and deserve it. ”
According to Zaposovati, in a large scheme of people with disabilities, they are not considered profitable, but consideration of the interests of Gen Z and Millennials prove differently: “They have the highest purchasing power in this industry, and they are interested in more conscious capitalism – they are more willing to buy products if they feel that it costs more benefits.”
When makeup brands make their products more affordable, they purchase loyal customers who give them free advertising, because disabled people “cry from the roofs,” she added. “They will tell everyone, because they found something that works for them.”
According to Vosovati, that’s why the rare beauty “has become absolutely viral” on Tiktok. “They were so thoughtful in their design, which distinguishes them from other brands.”
“As a disabled person, it was here that my love for beauty began,” said Zavodati. “It was almost a shield of armor to protect themselves from how people looked at me, because perhaps I could not control what they thought about me from the point of view of my disability, but it was that I Could control.”
Its goal is to work with beauty salons and help make their products, employment and place more affordable. Ultimately, she would like to open her own salon, which will give people a different disability of the “services that they deserve at a reasonable price.”
“Interaction with the beauty industry can be extremely valuable when you live in a world that makes you feel so different,” said Vosovati. “Makeup can be a shelter for people with disabilities.”
