Chapter 371: Beauty Course
"What? No, I definitely won't be able to learn this", Hua Mian, who was secretly happy because the etiquette class suddenly became easier, got the news from the female official next to Concubine Jing.
It's not bad news, it's just a little harder for Huamian... It may be rare that it is not a star and a half.
"Makeup?"
Hua Mian was pulled by Concubine Jing's female official Xue Qing to the small courtyard where the maids lived, facing a table full of various makeup utensils, Hua Mian shook her head again and again.
"What? Could it be that she is more interested in learning etiquette than learning makeup and sleeping girls? Xue Qing was holding a few bottles of unknown nature, and was opening them into a small jar.
Hearing her question, Hua Mian weighed it in her mind, in comparison, it must be easier to learn makeup than to learn to walk, so she no longer refused, and honestly sat at the table to listen to Xue Qing's explanation.
"It's called morning grease, it's a juice distilled from a mixture of roses and various herbs, and you need to apply it to your face before applying makeup," Xue Qing said, placing the small porcelain jar in her hand that had been mixed and mixed in front of Hua Mian.
Hua Mian poked her head over and looked inside the jar, which contained some unspeakable, rather viscous liquid, "You want to wipe this kind of thing on your face?" The taste doesn't smell like Xue Qing said, there is no rose, and there is a bit of a complicated vegetable aroma? Hua Mian raised her head suddenly, this smell was really familiar.
"Is this a hoofed grass in it?" , this smell makes Hua Mian can't forget it, and it was this dish that contributed to the master-apprentice relationship between her and Yang Gu in Sikong Mansion.
"Yes, it's a bit of knowledge", Xue Qing reached into the jar and dipped her hands full of juice out, "wiped it on your face"
"What?" , Hua Mian thought she had misheard, and smeared this slimy, slime-like thing on her face? Wait, since that's the case, "Could it be that this is what you used for me at the last moon viewing banquet?" Hua Mian remembered that the person who put on the make-up that looked like a transformation for herself at the last moon viewing banquet was this female official.
"Yes, the makeup last time was really beautiful", Xue Qing was satisfied that Hua Mian still remembered this incident, but she did not interrupt the preparation of the cooking because of the memory, and pushed the jar forward: "This time it won't be that I will help you wipe your face, right?" ”
Huamian gritted her teeth and let it go, anyway, it's just that the juice of the plant tastes like it, she stretched out her hand into the jar, turned around and felt a handful of viscous liquid, which felt like some cold glue.
There will be no worries about life left and right, Hua Mian ruthlessly stirred the mucus in the palm of his hand and pasted it on his face, it was cold at the first contact, but after applying it, the feeling became unexpectedly smooth, and this feeling is really like the effect said in those cosmetics advertisements.
With the movement of Hua Mian's hand, those strangely colored juices gradually became transparent, slowly disappearing on her face, and then Xue Qing's last steps when she applied makeup to her explained what was contained in each bottle, and demonstrated to her the use of these makeup tools.
"Because white powder can cause four seasons disease, now the palace has banned the use of white powder makeup, it stands to reason that you should use rice powder like the maids, but the mother specially instructed you, so you can use our makeup powder"
