Chapter 157 A Good Base Makeup Application



Zhang Ying's assistant was displeased by her actions.

She yelled, "We told you to apply the concealer first, how come you've already moved on to the next step?"

Xiao Bing said innocently, "I think I did pretty well."

Zhang Ying's assistant, hands on hips, exclaimed, "Her pimples are still on her face? Is this all healed? Is this how you usually do makeup for others?"

Zhang Ying gave her assistant an approving look.

"No... I did Xu Yanyu's makeup yesterday. She didn't have any blemishes on her face, and she even told me not to put concealer on her."

"So when I do her makeup, I only need to apply foundation, eyebrows and lipstick, and I can skip the steps of contouring and highlighting."

Xiao Bing naturally shared her daily work routine with them.

People who make a living through their skills tend to be quite assertive.

Zhang Ying's smile vanished completely, and she replied indifferently, "Oh..."

Seeing her like this, the assistant knew she was angry and quickly said, "I don't care how you do other people's makeup, now you have to listen to Yingying."

You are responsible for your work!

"I'm quite responsible," Xiao Bing said, casually tossing the concealer back into the box.

If she really listens to Zhang Ying, she can forget about keeping her job.

"What do you mean?" Zhang Ying's assistant was also angry.

Just then, the assistant stood outside and called out, "Xiao Bing! Where did you run off to?"

"You haven't finished Yan Yu's makeup yet! Come back and help her with her makeup; she has the most scenes today, and everyone's waiting."

After the assistant finished speaking, he turned to Xu Yanyu and said, "Yanyu, if you encounter something like this again, you should tell me in advance."

"We're starting filming in half an hour, and your makeup is only half done. Director Wei will yell at you later."

"Sister Ying is also my senior. I originally wanted to wait for Xiao Bing to finish doing her makeup before coming over to do my makeup."

But the team was really pressing me, that's why I asked for your help.

Xu Yanyu originally wanted to hire another makeup artist to do her makeup.

However, her assistant told her that all the makeup and styling for the character Liu Jing was handled by Xiao Bing.

The team has five makeup artists, but only two of them are truly skilled.

One makeup artist was solely responsible for the female lead's makeup and styling, while the other was Xiao Bing.

Therefore, Xiao Bing was the only one who could handle Liu Jing's makeup and styling.

"Okay! I'll go over right away to help Yan Yu with her makeup."

While replying to Zhang Ying, Xiao Bing helped her apply lipstick.

She ignored Zhang Ying's reaction; she had already done her eyebrows and everything else.

After quickly finishing all that, she swept all the tools on the table into the box.

"Wait... Is this all my makeup is like? I still have dark circles and pimples..." Zhang Ying looked at herself in the mirror and felt that her makeup looked awkward no matter how she looked at it.

Xiao Bing turned around and said, "Sister Ying, that's all I can do. I've also seen your scenes later, and your makeup can't be too elaborate."

"Your dark circles and pimples can't be covered up right now. Director Wei might even ask me to make your dark circles more prominent during filming."

Zhang Ying was taken aback. The scene they were about to film was about her and Chang Xuan being chased to the Orchid Valley, the most beautiful woman in the cultivation world.

According to the script, she had been hiding for a week, looking exhausted and disheveled...

Zhang Ying's face darkened even more.

In stark contrast to her is the character of Xu Yanyu.

It was another stunning entrance.

Xiao Bing picked up her suitcase and added, "Yesterday, Director Wei emphasized to our makeup artist that the actors' makeup should match the character's image."

A beggar should look like a beggar, and an old person should look like an old person…

"I strictly followed Director Wei's requirements to complete my work. If you are not satisfied, please find someone else to do your makeup."

After Xiaobing finished speaking, her figure disappeared through the doorway.

Zhang Ying slammed her hand on the table and said angrily, "This film crew is always so troublesome! Who in the next film crew would dare to talk to me like that?"

Zhang Ying's assistant glanced at her and said, "So what do we do now? This makeup look is actually okay..."

Zhang Ying stared at her assistant without saying a word, but her expression was very unpleasant.

Zhang Ying's assistant swallowed the rest of her words. She quickly stood up, took out her phone, and said, "I've called back the previous makeup artist. She should be alright now."

Xiao Bing returned to her original room and saw Xu Yanyu dressed up, a smile on her face.

"Yan Yu, sit down. I'll help you touch up your makeup."

"Okay! We need to hurry, Director Wei is already pressing us," Xu Yanyu reminded Xiaobing.

"It won't take much time to do your makeup," Xiao Bing said, but she still carefully outlined Xu Yanyu's eyebrows.

According to the script's requirements for the character, Liu Jing's every appearance must maintain an aesthetic appeal.

She didn't want Director Wei to deduct her bonus.

With everything ready, as soon as Xu Yanyu came out, Director Wei told everyone to first film some of Liu Jing's individual entrance shots.

These shots are all scenes of Liu Jing saving people in the world.

Xu Yanyu only needed to act well with the extras; she didn't even have many lines.

Xu Yanyu was suspended by wires as she flew through the air.

Director Wei shouted happily, "That's a wrap!"

Xu Yanyu, wearing a long skirt, inquired about the surrounding area from the residents.

Director Wei nodded, "The performance was very natural, cut!"

Xu Yanyu's scenes were mostly filmed in one take, and this filming speed really surprised everyone around her.

"Yan Yu seems to have put in a lot of effort last night," the assistant director couldn't help but praise.
