The county magistrate's daughter only wants to farm

Chapter 112 Makeup

"I don't know where the person has gone, but the peach blossoms still smile in the spring breeze..." Xiang Tao read the poem silently, with a dazzling light in her eyes, "The peach blossoms smile, the beauty smiles, and they smile in the spring breeze. What a good mood! This shop name is really well chosen. The young lady is really talented."

"Haha... I'm glad you like it." Gu Yin grinned awkwardly. She had no talent at all. This Tang Dynasty poem just popped up in her mind and she just thought it was appropriate. She didn't even remember what the whole poem was, and she had completely forgotten who wrote it...

She looked at Tao with starry eyes and nodded with a big smile on her face: "I like it, and there is also the word '桃' in my name."

"Oh, that's right. I didn't expect this. It's really no coincidence." Gu Yin relaxed and raised his eyebrows.

"Yes, yes." Xiang Tao still smiled happily.

"That's settled then!" Gu Yin stood up suddenly and waved towards Tao, "Let's go, we have to make some preparations."

Xiang Tao followed Gu Yin closely and asked, "What preparations are you making?"

"You'll know when you get there." Gu Yin met Zhenzhu on the way to the guest room with Xiang Tao. He whispered a few words in her ear and then took Xiang Tao to a guest room.

Although Xiang Tao was puzzled as to why the young lady brought her to the guest room, she did not ask any further questions and sat down with Gu Yin.

After a while, Pearl walked in with a wooden tray in one hand and pushed the door open with the other: "Miss, I have brought everything you wanted."

"Hurry, put the things on the table." Gu Yin was a little impatient.

"Miss, did you make all these?" Xiang Tao couldn't help but ask.

"Well, take a look at the quality?" Gu Yin urged enthusiastically.

Zhenzhu also looked at Xiang Tao expectantly, urging her with her eyes.

Xiang Tao saw the expressions of the two people, picked up one of the bottles without hesitation, unscrewed it quickly, glanced at Gu Yin and said, "Is this foundation?"

"Correct."

Xiang Tao picked up a bamboo stick beside her, gently picked out a little and spread it on her hands. As her hands moved, her eyes became brighter and brighter. Finally, she couldn't help but exclaimed: "This foundation is so delicate and moisturizing. The color is also very close to my skin tone. It's not too white and it's so delicate."

"Miss, this foundation will definitely sell well!" Xiang Tao looked at Gu Yin, revealing his eight big teeth, with his lips stretched to the back of his ears.

"Then it's up to you." Gu Yin was also very satisfied with the foundation she made. Although the color of the foundation she made was not very stable at present, the difference was not big. With more attempts in the future, perhaps she could come up with a few more colors.

"No problem!" Xiang Tao was full of confidence. With such a good product, there would be no problem selling it as long as he didn't do anything stupid.

"Try the others quickly." Gu Yin stretched out her hand, urging Xiang Tao to check the others.

The results were obvious. Every product exceeded Xiang Tao's imagination, causing her to exclaim in confusion the whole time.

Gu Yin looked at Xiang Tao's eyes that kept widening, and smiled until her eyes narrowed. She felt very proud in her heart. She liked this kind of shocked expression of "having never seen the world before", hehehe...

"Miss, how about we take these out and sell them tomorrow?" Xiang Tao's face turned red with excitement. She wanted to take these things to show those ladies and girls right away. She was sure to empty their pockets.

"You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry." Gu Yin smiled at Tao, "The preparations I mentioned haven't even started yet."

"Huh? Aren't these the ones?" Xiang Tao was dumbfounded. The products have already been made, so what other preparations are needed?

Gu Yin stretched out her index finger and waved it left and right a few times: "No, no, these are just products. When I say preparation, I mean building momentum."

"Creating momentum?" Xiang Tao wondered.

"Yes, even good wine needs no bush. If we want to make this business successful, we must make a name for ourselves." The cosmetics market has always been an industry with extremely high profits. Since we have started this business, we must do our best to achieve perfection.

Xiang Tao understood: "What should we do?"

"The stage is already being built in front of the Nishang Pavilion. On December 22, we will invite the girls from Qingya Building to perform on stage. The clothes they wear are designed by Nishang Pavilion, but we will need to do their makeup." Gu Yin smiled and spoke of her plan in a crisp voice, "Using the products we are about to sell."

"Miss, are you going to put makeup on them?" Xiang Tao was surprised, and then she realized that Gu Yin wanted to show the audience the effect of their makeup. However, "Can't we let them do it themselves? They all know how to put makeup on."

"Of course they know how to do ordinary makeup, but the effect may not be that good." Gu Yin smiled mysteriously.

"Is there any difference?" Xiang Tao was confused after hearing this. Isn't makeup just about applying it on the face? It's just that some novices don't know how to control the amount. If they apply too much, the makeup will look fake, and if they apply too little, there will be no effect. However, the girls in Qingya Pavilion have to put on makeup frequently when performing their talents every day, and their techniques will only become more skilled.

"No matter how much you talk, it's better to try it yourself." Gu Yin smiled and gestured to Zhenzhu, "Zhenzhu, go wash your face and be a model for a while."

Although Pearl didn't understand what model meant, she did understand what it meant to wash face and washed her face quickly.

"Come sit in the front." Gu Yin pulled over a chair, asked Zhenzhu to sit down, and adjusted their seats.

She reached out to take the facial cream on the tray and applied it to Pearl while explaining to Xiang Tao: "You should take care of your skin before putting on makeup. We only have facial cream now, so just use it. Next, write down what I do, and I will teach you how to try it after I put makeup on Pearl."

Xiang Tao nodded and carefully observed Gu Yin's techniques and the order in which she applied makeup.

"You don't need to apply too much foundation, otherwise your face will look thick and fake, white and unnatural. For example, Pearl's face is so small that her pores are so fine that they are invisible. We only need to apply a thin layer."

Gu Yin carefully explained to Xiang Tao the points that needed attention in each step, as well as the techniques and principles of skills.

Gu Yin used highlighter powder to lightly apply a layer of highlighter powder to the bridge of Zhenzhu's nose and said, "We should be good at using the depth of color to cover or highlight the characteristics of the face shape, so that the makeup will be more three-dimensional and exquisite. For example, like this, see what the difference is?"

Gu Yin smiled and raised an eyebrow towards Tao, with a hint of showing off in her expression.

"Wow! My nose has become taller and straighter." Xiang Tao's pupils dilated and she exclaimed, "This is amazing."

"Yes, is it different from your usual makeup?"

"It's completely different. We can't normally achieve this kind of effect." Xiang Tao's surprise has not yet faded.

Pearl heard them discussing and exclaiming, and her heart was itching. She also wanted to see what her face looked like.

When the last step was completed, Gu Yin clapped his hands happily: "Alright."

Pearl immediately asked, "Miss, can I look in the mirror?"
