原来不完美才是真流行？欧美少女都在疯的雀斑刺青
Semi-permanent freckle face tattoos are apparently a beauty trend now
While some women cover their faces with thick layers of foundation to cover up natural freckles, others are apparently getting them tattooed. Yup, freckles are in, and some people would even go under the needle to get them.
有些女性会用厚厚的粉底来遮盖脸上天生的雀斑,而其他一些女性却要往自己的脸上纹雀斑.雀斑如此流行,居然有人宁愿挨针扎也要让自己的脸上有雀斑.
Freckle tattooing is reportedly one of the fastest growing beauty treatments available today. Similar to microblading, an eyebrow enhancing procedure, freckle tattooing involves the use of pigments to ink freckle-like dots onto a person's face that eventually blend in with the client's skin tone. As with any tattoo, there is some inevitable swelling, but it subsides after a few months, and the initial dark coloring of the freckles fades to a light brown.
据报道,雀斑刺青是如今发展最迅速的美容治疗项目之一.和微创提眉手术类似,雀斑刺青就是用染料将雀斑状的小点纹到一个人的脸上,这些�"叩阕钪栈岷涂突У姆羯谖惶�.和其他刺青一样,创伤处的红肿是不可避免的,但几个月后就会消退,最初纹的深黑色也会渐渐变成浅褐色.
It's unclear when exactly freckle tattooing started, but Montreal-based cosmetic tattoo artist Gabrielle Rainbow is considered one of the pioneers who spearheaded the beauty trend. She says she was inspired by a friend who had become tired of constantly having to paint them on her face with makeup. Rainbow first experimented on herself, although she doesn't recommend tattooing your own face, and after seeing that the effect was very realistic, she decided to tattoo her friend as well.
不知道雀斑刺青是什么时候兴起来的,但是现在居住在加拿大蒙特利尔的美容纹身技师加布里埃尔•雷恩博被认为是引领这一美容潮流的先驱之一.她表示,她是受一位疲于画雀斑妆的朋友的启发.雷恩博先在自己脸上做了试验,尽管她不推荐在脸上做刺青,但是看到效果很逼真,她决定在她朋友脸上也纹上雀斑.
Gabrielle Rainbow told New Beauty that she now tattoos face freckles for a wide range of clients, from people who naturally get them in the summertime who also want to keep them when they can't get enough sun exposure, to those who are freckle free, but always dreamed of sporting their own 'sun kisses'.
加布里埃尔•雷恩博告诉《新丽人》说,她现在在各种各样的客户脸上纹雀斑,有夏天被晒出斑点想在日照不足的时候还保留这些晒斑的客户,也有脸上没雀斑却一直梦想拥有自己的雀斑的客户.
"In terms of the freckles, when they are 'freshly done,' they will appear swollen almost like bee stings, and the swelling will go down within a couple hours and you'll be left with your cute, fresh freckles," the cosmetic tattoo artist says. "Over the course of one to two months, the color will soften dramatically and look more natural. They will fade naturally with time, and if you wish to keep them you can always get the color boosted whenever you like."
这位美容纹身技师说："雀斑'刚做好'的时候,看上去肿得像被蜜蜂蜇的,但是几个小时后,肿胀就会消下去,你就能拥有你的可爱新雀斑了.再过一到两个月,雀斑的颜色就会变淡很多,看上去更自然.这些雀斑会随着时间流逝慢慢淡去,如果你想保留雀斑,可以随时去增强一下颜色."
Freckle tattooing can usually be done in one session, and doesn't require any follow-up appointments. The color of the semi-permanent spots gradually fades, until they disappear completely after about three years. Clients can obviously come in for a touch-up whenever they feel that they need one. Depending on the artist and the size of the freckled area, the price of a tattooing session starts at $500.
