Independent Component 1

1) Here is the link to my schedule of self facial appointments. Each appointment is exactly one hour. With self facials, I help each client out by showing them step-by-step on how they perform the self facial.  It begins from Nov. 2, 2011 - Jan. 8, 2012.

 (Notes)

(This is the book I used to get information on how to make the scrubs, masks, etc...)

 

(these are some of the ingredients I used to make some of the products. There's coconut oil, grape seed oil, sugar, clay, and scented oils. Most of these ingredients are all natural/pure. I tried to use natural/pure to reduce to amount of chemicals on my face.) 

 

 

(Dry clay powder. Clay masks can help extract impurities from my pores and help improve the skin. this is especially recommended for my face because I have very oily skin.)

(water added to dry clay powder)

 

 (water and clay mixed)

 

 

 

(I created the clay mask and applied it to my face. After 15 minutes of waiting, the clay hardened and I could barely move my face.)

 

 

 

 

( I mixed baking soda and granulated sugar(all natural). After, I added a small amount of water)

 

 

 (Blackhead scrub)

 

 

Literal:

 

a) I, Tarleen Khauv, affirm that I have completed my independent component which represents 30 hours of work.

b) For the first part of my independent component, I helped at the spa with the self facial appointments. Like before, I show the clients how they can use the machine and which items they should use for the service consisting of cleansing the face first, followed by steaming the face(to open pores for more effective use of treatments/products),then a suction to remove dead skin, lastly, the mask(made of pure ingredients and made on the spot). The second part of the component, I created my own items such as a scrub, mask, and cleanser. The goal of the second part was not to see if it made a difference on my face, because it would not be possible without professional machines to tell, but to reduce the amount of chemicals I use on my face, and to treat my skin to better and more natural ingredients. Conducting this should help my skin reduce the load of chemicals and make my skin "happier" and myself feel better knowing that I am choosing items such as these.

 

 

Interpretive:

 

When I assist with the self facials, which are one hour each, I am by the client's side the entire hour. Even though I am not allowed to touch their face, I am there to answer any questions, tell them the next step, make clear any confusion, and provide basic information on how to care for the skin and which products/ingredients are better fit for their type of skin. The total amount of self facials I assisted in are 36 with a total of 36 hours. I believe the most significant part of this component is where I assist with the self-facials. Here, I can speak one on one with a client, explain the good and bad about certain ingredients/products, and how to overall gain presentation skills.

 

Applied:

 

I believe this component has helped me with my EQ, because a part of my EQ mentions an important factor, and I think that being able to converse with the client is really important. Communication is huge, for one, because they must understand you, and secondly, you must be able to persuade them in some manner(gently) to purchase your product.
