178 Chapter 178
Dong Yiyi is 27 years old and works as an operations executive at an Internet company.
I don't know if it is after the age of 25, water and collagen began to lose a lot, in the past year, she obviously felt that her skin condition was not as good as when she was 20 years old, nasolabial folds were obvious, and her face was dull.
Coupled with frequent overtime, staying up late, high work pressure, hairline shifting, hair loss and other symptoms gradually become prominent, the whole person looks exhausted, and can only be covered up by makeup when going out.
Looking at the pimple and dull face after removing makeup, Dong Yiyi felt that she couldn't go on like this.
So in the last two months, she has put maintenance on the agenda.
As soon as I have time, I look at the reviews of various skin care products, shampoos, and cosmetics, and follow the blogger to plant a lot of products.
There are cheap bowls of moisturizing milk, easy to use and inexpensive domestic light; There are also lady-grade creams and hundreds of silicone-free shampoos that I bought with all my heart, and bottles and cans are piled up on a table.
It can't be said that it has no effect, like a lady's cream worth two or three thousand yuan, it must have an effect, but the price is really expensive, a small spoonful of digging down, dozens of pieces will be gone.
Every time I use it, my heart is dripping blood.
With her current spending power, it's a bit reluctant to buy skincare products of this level.
As for the other products, some are not bad, and many more are put on hold after a few uses.
Dong Yiyi looked at the beautifully packaged skin care products placed on the dresser, and then looked at herself in the mirror, and couldn't help but sigh.
It may be that her expectations are too high, and she always feels that there is a certain gap between the effect she wants.
Skincare is not magic, it only works on the surface of the skin, and it needs to be done from the inside out.
Regular work and rest, healthy eating, relaxation, and maintaining a happy mood are the fundamentals, how can you do it with skincare products alone?
After wasting a lot of money, Dong Yiyi's enthusiasm for assessment gradually faded.
Until some time ago, she opened a book and found that major bloggers were overwhelmingly promoting a lavender essential oil, and she brushed it all at will.
Among them is a popular beauty blogger she followed before.
The other party has a very straight personality, and when he receives the advertisement, he will directly say that there is promotion, and put the link at the top, no is no.
This time there was obviously no promotion of the collaboration, but the blogger focused on the sleep-aiding and soothing effects of lavender essential oil, and excitedly told everyone that she had waited more than half a year for this essential oil to be released.
"Sisters, it's really amazing! Chinese people don't lie to Chinese people, this lavender essential oil set between flowers, I would like to call it the Hermes of lavender!
It can be used by people with insomnia, stress, acne scars, and the results are very good.
If you don't believe it, you can flip through the video I posted in September last year, and I pushed it at that time. ”
"This essential oil is limited to 5 bottles for a single ID, so I asked a friend to help me buy it, and I stocked up on 15 bottles at a time, saving time when I ran out of stock.
Other babies who want to try it can buy the 3ml one, which can be bought on the official website of a certain treasure, a certain east and a flower collection......"
Dong Yiyi searched the price, 199 yuan, so she also bought a bottle.
This is the beginning of a new world.
When she got home from work, she first opened the humidifier she bought for more than 30 yuan and dripped 5 drops of essential oil.
The smell unique to real lavender is very much
It spreads quickly, relaxes the mood, relieves the fatigue and anxiety of the day, and the spirit is no longer tense.
Under the effect of sleep aid, Dong Yiyi felt sleepy before 12 o'clock, and lay in bed until dawn.
In the past, she was busy until 8 o'clock in the evening, and after a simple wash, she retaliated by watching videos with full of fatigue, and she didn't sleep until at least 2 o'clock in the morning.
When the alarm clock rings in the morning, I am so annoyed that I can't wait to take time off from work, and the boredom and anxiety of the day begins.
Now that she has gained a good night's sleep, Dong Yiyi automatically wakes up at 7 o'clock in the morning and no longer needs an alarm clock.
A good routine and sufficient rest made her look much better, the tiredness disappeared on her face, and the whole person's mental state became completely different.
This change is from the inside out, the state, temperament and appearance change together, and even her colleagues are shocked by her change.
They asked her what kind of elixir she had taken.
Dong Yiyi thinks that essential oils are really a good thing.
Why didn't I find out sooner?
She searched the Internet and found that there are many types of essential oils.
rose, jasmine, tea tree, chamomile, geranium, lavender, peppermint, rosemary, verbena, sandalwood, frankincense and other essential oils; There are a variety of unilateral essential oils, compound essential oils, base oils, and various derivative products; I've never heard of the brand.
Essential oils are already a niche in China, and naturally they are not as familiar as big-name skin care products.
Dong Yiyi was dazzled and didn't know how to choose at all.
When searching for essential oil information on a certain station, she happened to swipe the video of [Ah Hui Evaluation], so she immediately clicked on it.
I have to say, the title is really eye-catching.
300,000 yuan/kg of essential oil, this price is beyond the public's understanding.
Dong Yiyi calculated that it was equivalent to 300 yuan/gram, which was 5-10 times more expensive than the lady's cream.
Oh, my God.
Why is it so expensive? Does anyone really buy it?
Obviously, there are many people who think the same way as her, and in just half a day after the video was released, it has more than 300,000 views, and 10,000+ people watch it at the same time.
Featured video recommendations that have been featured on the homepage.
Clicking on the video, the blogger greeted the audience: "Hello everyone, this is Ah Hui's evaluation." Today we are testing rose essential oil, known as the queen of essential oils and one of the most expensive essential oils in the world.
Among them, the essential oil extracted from Damascus rose distillation is known as liquid gold, and the price is as high as 300,000 yuan/kg. ”
The barrage above has said that it is ridiculously expensive.
"IQ tax", "sell exclusively to the rich", "really catch up with the gold before the price rise", "buy this is better than buy gold", "come and see the life of the rich" and other remarks are endless.
Dong Yiyi also came to see the excitement, after all, the price is very high, and it is not something that ordinary people can afford.
The blogger continues: "So, why is it so expensive? ”
"First of all, let's get to know the Damascus rose variety.
As a fragrance category, there are many kinds of roses, plus thousands of varieties and hybrids, Damascus rose is recognized as a high-quality variety in the world.
It contains 18 kinds of amino acids and trace elements required by the human body for the human body
There are up to 120 kinds of active ingredients, which have moisturizing, water-locking, antioxidant, soothing and other effects. It contains a high amount of essential oils and is cultivated in sparse quantities worldwide. ①
The most famous production area is in Bulgaria, also known as Bulgarian roses. ”
"So, Damascus rose, which is produced in Bulgaria, makes the best essential oils."
"After talking about the raw materials, let's talk about the process.
Damascus roses only bloom once a year, the flowering period is only 18 days, when the buds bloom, a large number of workers need to pick and select one by one in the early morning, when the sun has not yet risen.
It is then shipped to the factory as soon as possible and extracted within 4 hours to ensure fresh activity.
As for its extraction, it uses an 'Otto' process, which is very complicated, which we will talk about later. ”
"Thirdly, it has a very low extraction ratio.
On average, 3-5 tons of roses can extract 1 kg of essential oil, and 5ml of extraction requires 12,000 roses. ”
Ah Hui: "It is precisely because of various reasons such as origin, variety, difficulty of picking, technology, extraction ratio, etc., that its high price has been created. ”
By the time the blogger finished his introduction, the barrage was a little more understanding.
[It does seem expensive.] ]
[Fresh roses are not cheap, twenty or thirty yuan a catty, and a ton costs forty or fifty thousand. ]
[I go, tens of thousands of roses can only extract a few milliliters of essential oil, really luxurious.] ]
[How good it is for roses to make tea, and it feels like a waste to make essential oils.] ]
[It's not the same.] Some roses are suitable for essential oils, some are suitable for perfumes, and some are used to make tea, each with its own use. ]
[I seem to understand why perfume is so expensive.] ]
[Bulgarian Rose Valley, look at the picture is so beautiful, I really want to see it.] ]
……
The blogger found an assistant and put different essential oils on the table: "After introducing the problem of the high cost of rose essential oil, we officially opened today's evaluation.
Ah Hui's team found 8 common rose essential oils on the market, and several of them sold very well.
Today, the blogger will take you to evaluate their quality one by one to see if they are real 'liquid gold'. ”
"For the 8 essential oils, I divided them into 3 groups.
The first group, a single essential oil, is 100% pure rose essential oil, containing no other substances, closest to 'liquid gold'.
The second group, essential oils, is blended with a certain percentage of essential oils + base oils/toners, and the purity is lower.
The third group, rosehip oil or others.
Most of the ones seen on the market are the third type, which is cheaper, but it has little to do with rose essential oil. ”
The barrage has been hotly discussed.
[It's over, it's over, it seems like the third one I bought!] ]
[I bought rose essential oil once last year, more than 200 yuan, I thought it was very expensive at the time, and the fragrance was also very positive.] Ahhh (crying)]
[It must be fake, but it really has to be at least a thousand.] ]
[I bought an essential oil, is there a problem?] Wow, it's almost used up, it's still recommended by XX bloggers! ]
[Same. I see that many bloggers are pushing, and it is very general to buy it back, and then it is idle. ]
[I should have bought it correctly, I asked if it was a single essential oil.]
]
[Fortunately, I didn't buy it, the water is too deep.] ]
[Don't worry about the front, the essence oil and rosehip oil also depend on the ingredients, not necessarily very bad, but it can't be compared with Otto rose essential oil.] ]
Dong Yiyi watched everyone's discussion and couldn't help but be glad that she didn't act rashly.
Otherwise, I don't know what kind of product I will buy back.
According to her original cognition, it is very likely that she will choose an essential oil for 200 yuan.
And this price is not
If you think about it, it must be fake.
The evaluation has not yet begun, and the rarity and high price of rose essential oil have already taken root in people's hearts.
How can those fruit oils, essential oils, and carrier oils compare to pure rose essential oil?
12,000 Bulgarian roses extract 5ml of essential oil, a collection of countless essences as a whole, pure natural plant ingredients, outstanding efficacy, for the world's top luxury, and other products are not at the same level.
……
When the barrage kept flashing above, the blogger's evaluation also began.
The first is Otto rose essential oil imported from country F, with simple packaging and a price of 1320 yuan for 2ml.
Ah Hui: "It's a relatively old brand, and the quality of essential oils is very stable every year.
Let's take a look at the test report and certification, there is no problem with the origin - Bulgarian Damascus rose, the process and purity are no problem, 100% unilateral essential oil. ”
"By the way, let's talk about this process, the Otto process is also called 'circulating water distillation', and the resulting Otto Rose essential oil has a more "watery" feeling, and it will crystallize below 20 degrees.
The other process is the traditional "organic solvent extraction method", which results in the original essence of roses, which is not crystallized and has a more viscous texture.
In short, compared with the two processes, the former is more difficult to extract, the extraction ratio is lower than the latter, and the price is more expensive. ”
"There's nothing to say about this essential oil, it's an old imported product, and I can give it a score of 9.
The only drawback is that the price is relatively high, equivalent to 660 yuan/ml. ”
"Let's take a look at the second one, imported rose essential oil from country D.
This one uses the Chiba rose of country F, which is also expensive, but it is mostly used to make perfumes, and the process is "organic solvent extraction", and the overall score is 8.
The price is much lower than the first one, 5ml/1450 yuan. ”
"The third is the essential oil extracted from the local bitter water rose in China...... Cost-effective, 5ml/998 yuan, overall 7.7 points. ”
"The fourth, a new product launched by the recently popular Flower Collection, is Otto Rose essential oil."
As soon as the name of the flower collection came out, a dense barrage instantly covered the screen.
Everywhere there are fonts of "flower sets, rows", horizontal and vertical, and different colors are dazzling.
Dong Yiyi also sat up straight suddenly.
[Strongly recommend his lavender essential oil!] ]
[People with insomnia and sleep disorders must buy, and if it doesn't work, I will unscrew my head.] ]
[Toth.] ]
[Open your mouth and close your mouth is Tuo, laughing to death, you were deceived by Tuo and ran out of your property?] Oh no, you don't have any possessions (hehe). ]
[Family, it's not enough!] Join me in playing 'Flower Set YYDS' on the public screen. ]
So, a barrage that was even more violent than just now
Covering the screen, all kinds of fonts are gorgeous and colorful, overlapping to the point that there is no gap, drowning the sentence 'Tuo' in it, like a drop of water in the ocean, and there is no trace of it.
Dong Yiyi also participated in this defense battle, and sent several messages in a row.
Other newcomers were amazed by the image, which gave those who had never heard of the brand "Flower House" a preliminary impression - 'It's so popular, the quality must be good.' ’
Ah Hui: "Although it is produced in China, the flower collection uses authentic Bulgarian rose varieties, the buds are full and fresh, and the quality is not inferior to that of imported products.
Otto low-temperature distillation process, 100% pure unilateral essential oil, exquisite packaging, complete inspection materials.
Open the cap, a rich rose aroma emanates, pure natural taste, essential oil drops on the back of the hand is easy to absorb, good nourishing effect. ”
"The price is 3ml/1599 yuan, which is 20% cheaper than the products imported from country F, and the individual scores 9.5 points."
The barrage immediately questioned it.
[Didn't you say that the Bulgarian appellation is better?] Flower set is not the place of origin! ]
[Tangerine is born in Huaibei, and the domestic environment is not suitable for the growth of Damascus roses, which is definitely not as good as imports. ]
[The previous evaluation is okay, but this score is really unsightly.] ]
[Heh, the blogger took over the promotion of the flower set, right?] Don't score too outrageous! ]
[9.5 points?? If you're going to say 8 points, I think it's okay. It is obviously a domestic brand, but the price is so expensive, whoever buys it is a big injustice. ]
[What happened to the domestic brand?] Everything speaks by quality, and you can't stand up after kneeling for a long time? Knees are so soft. ]
Dong Yiyi frowned and just wanted to type, but the blogger came up with evidence.
Ah Hui: "I know that some people will say that the score of Huajian Ji is too high, so I did an analysis of the composition of essential oils in advance.
Note that this is a report issued by a formal testing center, and the number can be checked. ”
The screen shows a comparison of the ingredients of the two essential oils.
"The main ingredient in Otto rose essential oil is citronellol.
It has the functions of increasing skin moisture, delaying aging, brightening skin tone, anti-cancer, etc., and has a very good nourishing effect on the skin, and it is also one of the criteria to measure the quality of rose essential oil.
Through component analysis, we can see that the citronellol content of imported products in country F is 46%; And the content of the interfloral set is 54%, which is almost the highest value!
And nerolidol, another substance that relieves anxiety and calms nerves, has a 2% higher content than the former, and the effect is outstanding. ”
"Through the comparison of the composition of essential oils, it can be concluded that the rose essential oil collected between flowers is better than the essential oil imported from country F, but the price is 20% cheaper.
The highest score of 9.5 points was given overall. ”
The explanation was reasonable, and the barrage immediately stopped.
[Hahaha, the slap in the face came too quickly like a tornado.] ]
[I really didn't expect that Huajian Ji could beat the old foreign essential oil brand, strong!] ]
[Ahh ]
[Flower set, row noodles!] ]xN
[As an aromatherapist, I was stunned to see this ingredient, this is the best physiotherapy product!] Pls who has the contact information for Flower Room? ]
[There is an email address on the official website, thank you.] ]
……
Later, the blogger evaluated it again
Several essential oils and rosehip oil (), and finally the class representative drew conclusions in the comment area.
High-end product recommendation: Flower Set Otto Rose Essential Oil (9.5 points) ◣ ()_[()]◣ "Come []$ to see the latest chapter $ complete chapter" (), Imported rose essential oil from F country (9.0 points)
Cost-effective recommendation: Huaguo local rose essential oil, 5ml/998 yuan (7.7 points)
Essence oil recommendation: a big brand 9.9% purity rose oil, 8ml/269 yuan (7.4 points)
Other: Rosehip Oil ≠ Rose Essential Oil.
The part of rosehip oil extraction is wild rose seed, which has no aroma; Rose essential oil extracts flower petals and has a strong aroma.
*
The results of this essential oil evaluation are very good.
The eye-catching title + homepage exposure has brought more than 1 million views, and has made a vivid science popularization for people who are not familiar with rose essential oil, and the score is fair and convincing.
At the same time, it has created momentum for the launch of the rose series between flowers, and initially established the status of the ceiling of high-end essential oils.
Without further ado, the Kao Boutique Rose series was officially launched on August 10 on all channels.
Due to the high price of essential oils, nearly 100 bottles were sold on the same day, but the sales of rose hydrosol and other products exceeded 1,000, which shows everyone's recognition of the brand.
Sure enough, someone in the Q&A area of essential oils asked: Is this an IQ tax?
Can you tell me who buys such an expensive essential oil? I don't buy an annual salary of 1 million.
It's a pity that it was popularized well.
Even posted links to other brands to show that rose essential oil is just that expensive, otherwise it would be fake.
If you want to buy fakes, turn right and don't send them.
On the contrary, it made the other party very lonely and sour.
After watching the review video, everyone knows that the Otto Rose essential oil in the Flower Collection is a good thing, but unfortunately many people don't know how to use it.
It is impossible to try such an expensive product at will, and the price is indeed not low, so it is inevitable to hesitate for a while.
When some beauty bloggers see the 'business opportunity', they immediately research various ways to use it to maximize the value of essential oils.
For example, body massages, skin care with carrier oils, essential oil baths, hot compresses to relieve menstrual cramps, etc., the most popular of which is the "Rose Lady Cream" recommended by a blogger.
"I've done tests and 3ml is about 60 drops of rose essential oil.
We buy a basic cream within 200 yuan, domestic products can be bought with very good quality, there are many options, cheap and easy to use.
Then take out 20-30g of the base cream and put it in a divided bottle, drop in 5-6 drops of Otto Rose essential oil collected between flowers, and stir well.
In this way, we have a lady's cream that integrates moisturizing, hydrating, whitening and rejuvenating, brightening and anti-aging!
And the taste is particularly good, with a faint rose fragrance, which has a soothing and relaxing effect; Pure natural plant ingredients, gentle and non-irritating.
The small molecules of essential oils are quickly absorbed, which can reach the bottom of the skin and care for the skin. ”
"Personally, I feel that it is better to use than some lady creams, the texture is not so heavy, and it is more suitable for young ladies aged 25-40.
The most important thing is 60 drops, which can be paired with at least 2 bottles of 100g cream, which is simply worth it! ”
(PS: Use with caution for allergies, use with caution for other brands, only between flowers to set rose essential oil.) )
The feedback in the comments section was equally eager.
"It's true!! I took the ingredients and asked a friend from the dermatology department of a tertiary hospital, aromatherapy can be used for the mediation of clinical psychological problems, psychological healing + skin care, two-pronged! ”
"I've also heard a blogger say that most of the creams are water, moisturizers, thickeners, emulsifiers, etc., and the part that really works may not be as much as the amount of essential oils."
"I've tried it for everyone, high moisturizing cream + rose essential oil between flowers. After a few days of use, the skin is as smooth as a shelled egg, white and red.
Haha, friends are asking what elixir they ate. Present a no-makeup photo. [Picture]"
"Wow, you look really good."
Dong Yiyi was moved fiercely.
The cream she hadn't used much before came in handy, and it wasn't wasted at all.
Not only her, but also the people who were originally hesitant were also moved.
1599 yuan, the first 2000 people will get a bottle of rose hydrosol for 238 yuan - buy! A must buy!!
