Chapter 1053 Beauty
"An Ning, today is Sunday, and it is also your busiest time of the week. Why do you have time to come here today?"
"I don't have anything to do today, so I came to see you."
The second store has already It's on the right track. Xu Wanning doesn't need to keep an eye on it all the time. There are Tang Ting and three others in the boutique, so Xu Wanning doesn't need to worry.
Now that the hybrid rice has entered the final stage, and there is no need for her to run back and forth to the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Xu Wanning is much more relaxed than before.
"Sister Jingjing and Third Brother got married before. When I was doing makeup on Sister Jingjing, didn't you say you wanted to learn makeup from me? I was too busy some time ago, and I didn't have any cosmetics at hand, so I put this matter on hold. Come down. But when Boss Yang from Yangcheng came to Beijing to discuss business yesterday, he brought some cosmetics, so I specially brought them over today."
As he spoke, Xu Wanning laid out several cosmetics.
Today's cosmetics only include powder, eye shadow, blush, lipstick, and eyebrow pencil. Unlike in later generations, there was pre-makeup, contouring, and highlighting. These five categories of cosmetics are enough to create a complete makeup look.
Zhang Wenting always loves beauty. When she saw the cosmetics on the table, she couldn't put it down and picked them up to look at them.
"Aning, why are there so many cosmetics? Can I use them all?"
"Actually, to be honest, second sister-in-law, you are pregnant now, so I don't really recommend you to use cosmetics on your face."
After all, Many cosmetics contain chemicals that may cause miscarriage in severe cases.
"I can't use it." Zhang Wenting's tone could not hide her disappointment.
Xu Wanning continued: "You can't use it on your own face, but you can apply it on other people's faces."
"What do you mean?"
"I'll teach you how to put makeup on, and I'll teach you how to put makeup on others."
Zhang Wenting's eyes suddenly lit up. : "I want to learn, Aning, I want to learn!"
I want to learn, but there is no suitable model.
Xu Wanning's face can be lent to Zhang Wenting, but the problem is, she has lent her own face to Zhang Wenting, how can she show Zhang Wenting the steps of makeup?
The aunt and sister-in-law looked at each other and focused on Shi An Shiyi.
There is a nursery in the family area. After Shi An Shiyi turned two years old, he spent most of his time in the nursery. After all, the elders in the family had to go to work and there was really no manpower available to take care of her at home every day.
Xu Wanning and Zhang Wenting were both familiar faces. After they went to the teacher to explain the situation, the teacher asked them to take them home.
"Aunt, Second Aunt, did you do something fun when you took us home today?"
"Yes, it was indeed something fun."
Xu Wanning held Shi An Shiyi's hands on her left and right hands respectively, and asked the two children in a low voice: " "Do you two like painting?"
"Yes, I like it very much!"
"Let Auntie and Second Aunt paint on your faces later, okay?"
Shi An blinked his big eyes innocently. Looking at Xu Wanning: "Drawing on our faces?"
"Yes, you will know later."
Taking the two children back to the second aunt's house, Xu Wanning brought a small table and took two more The small bench came out and allowed Shi An and Shi Yi to sit on the bench respectively.
"I am responsible for drawing for Shi An, explaining the key points of each step while drawing. Second sister-in-law, you must watch and listen carefully. Once you learn how to draw, you can draw on Shi Yi's face."
Children's skin can be broken by blows, and even It looks great without any foundation.
But in order for Zhang Wenting to understand every step, Xu Wanning used a powder puff to dip some powder from the powder cake and lightly swept a layer of it on Shi An's face.
"After applying foundation, the first thing to draw is the eyebrows. Eyebrows include brows, brow peaks and brow tails. There are many ways to draw eyebrows according to each person's face shape. Let's start with this..."
While Xu Wanning was painting, she also Don’t forget to explain the key points to Zhang Wenting.
When she finished drawing one of Shi An's eyebrows and planned to stop and look at it, she found that Zhang Wenting had already finished drawing it for Shi Yi.
The first time I drew the eyebrows, the lines were still a bit stiff, and they looked like Guan Gong wielding a machete. But it should be said that it was not easy for Zhang Wenting to draw to this level for the first time.
Today's eyebrow pencils are the most old-fashioned kind of eyebrow pencils that do not have an eyebrow comb, so Xu Wanning used the pad of her little finger to slightly blend Shi An's brows. Zhang Wenting also learned Xu Wanning's technique and applied it to her eyebrows. Shi Yi also fainted.
"It looks more harmonious this way. Second sister-in-law, please draw Shi Yi's other eyebrow, and I'll watch you draw it."
"Okay."
Xu Wanning was sure that this was Zhang Wenting's first time using an eyebrow pencil. Her technique was still a bit unfamiliar, but after she found the most comfortable position to hold the pen, Zhang Wenting soon finished drawing the other eyebrow, and it was very symmetrical. It didn't look like it was the first time for a novice to draw it.
After finishing the painting, Zhang Wenting asked Xu Wanning nervously: "Aning, how was my painting?"
Xu Wanning gave a thumbs up to Zhang Wenting, "I painted to this level for the first time, which is already very good. What's next? , I will teach you how to draw eye shadow."
Xu Wanning took the smoky eye shadow palette and said, "The most important thing about eye shadow is the color matching. These colors..."
Xu Wanning explained and started to draw. Zhang Wenting was always very serious. Stare.
After Xu Wanning finished drawing one of Shi An's eyes, she said to Zhang Wenting, "Second sister-in-law, would you like to try it?"
The first eye failed.
Zhang Wenting was not used to using the small sponge stick in the eye shadow palette and could not control the strength, so the eye shadow powder rubbed out was heavy and light. It was not evenly applied on the eyelids, and it did not look so good.
Xu Wanning took out the handkerchief that had been soaked in makeup remover and rubbed it on Shi Yi's eyelids. The eyeshadow quickly disappeared.
"Second sister-in-law, why don't you try again?"
Needless to say, Zhang Wenting does have some talent in makeup. She only practiced two or three times, and she was almost as good as Xu Wanning.
Xu Wanning is not a professional makeup artist, but just because she likes it, she has learned a little from the videos of beauty bloggers.
Her skills are not professional, but they were sufficient in the 1980s.
Zhang Wenting only practiced with her a few times and was already good at applying eye makeup.
After the lipstick was applied, Xu Wanning finally gave Zhang Wenting a thumbs up again: "Second sister-in-law, you do have a talent in this area, and you can draw much better than me!"
Shi An Shiyi is a twin, and they share a picture The faces, the same makeup techniques and products, were presented by two makeup artists, resulting in the brothers' faces finally being slightly different.
