Chapter 75: One of the Three Forbidden Arts – Makeup!
“As long as Consort Wei goes out and says something, the other consorts may all come over to join in the fun. It’s impossible for a consort not to be tempted by such a good thing,” Li Lizhi nodded and said, “Your Majesty, if you feel any discomfort, you must speak up immediately.”
Consort Wei was stunned and asked, “Why are you still… unwell?”
“Only a very small minority of people might be allergic to it, and if that happens, they can’t use it,” Li Lizhi reassured Consort Wei. “But such cases are extremely rare, so there’s no need to worry, Consort.”
Consort Wei nodded, “Okay, come, Lizhi!”
Consort Wei didn’t worry anymore.
Li Lizhi nodded and began to apply skincare cream on Consort Wei’s face, but for visual effect, Li Lizhi only applied it on one side. It will be obvious when you look at it later. The contrast is stark!
Consort Wei couldn’t see, but Empress Zhangsun and the others present could see her expression. The effect is not worse than hand cream!
Noble Consort Wei’s two faces seemed to be of a different person. Empress Zhangsun and several court ladies were stunned. Consort Wei also noticed the weird eyes of several people.
This strange look made Consort Wei uncomfortable and said with a smile, “Why is sister looking at me like this!”
Li Lizhi smiled, “Your Majesty, don’t worry, it will be fine soon. You will find out later.”
Consort Wei nodded, looking forward to it.
“It looks like the process is a bit complicated!” Empress Zhangsun looked at Li Lizhi and the transformation box next to her.
There are many things in it. I don’t even know it, but there is still a scent, which feels very good when I open it.
“It’s not difficult for the Mother Empress. Now you don’t know these things. Once you know them, you will know how to use them. It’s very simple,” Li Lizhi said.
Empress Zhangsun nodded, knowing that these must have been prepared by the expert Li Lizhi. It’s just that Empress Zhangsun really couldn’t understand how these high-level people could do it. And Li Lizhi’s makeup skills must have been taught by experts.
Empress Zhangsun couldn’t figure it out!
“This is not the same as the image of a sophisticated expert in Empress Zhangsun’s mind. Empress Zhangsun did not expect an expert to be so proficient in these women’s things. Thinking about it, Empress Zhangsun’s expression became strangely puzzled. Li Lizhi put down the eyebrow pencil and said with satisfaction: ‘It’s done!’
Empress Zhangsun couldn’t help but walk to Nobel Consort Wei for a closer look. Several other personal maids also came over curiously. Everyone was shocked. On the one hand, they were shocked that there was such a thing, and on the other hand, they were amazed by Li Lizhi’s superb makeup skills. Absolutely!
“Lizhi, is it alright?” Nobel Consort Wei also looked forward to seeing what she would be transformed into.
“Your Majesty, it’s fine.” Li Lizhi got up and held something to cover the unpainted face on the other side. Wei Yao picked up the small mirror and showed it to Nobel Consort Wei. Seeing herself in the mirror, Nobel Consort Wei also stared wide-eyed and said in disbelief: ‘Ah! This is… Is this my palace? Why do you feel that you are more than ten years younger!’
The skin is better than snow and can be broken by blowing bombs! The crow’s feet and the few facial freckles are completely invisible.
Nobel Consort Wei saw her perfect self. Several other people nodded in agreement, so they looked like they were more than ten years younger. Basically, no flaws were visible.
When Nobel Consort Wei saw herself without makeup, she was shocked. She thought she looked good before, but now, comparing the two sides of her face, it was too obvious. The smile on her face froze, and she quickly covered herself, saying with a smile: ‘It’s still so beautiful!’ Empress Zhangsun couldn’t help laughing.”
