Chapter 249 Jinxiu Yantang's opening warm-up
She explained in detail the process of picking rose petals, drying them in the sun and making floral water, allowing students to understand how to transform bright rose petals into fragrant floral water.
She also taught students how to wash their faces with mugwort boiled water, as well as the medicinal value and beauty benefits of mugwort.
She also demonstrated how to make a facial mask with honey and milk, and explained the nutritional content and benefits of honey and milk for the skin.
The students were full of enthusiasm for this new beauty knowledge, and the learning atmosphere was very strong. They discussed and learned from each other, and the classroom was filled with laughter.
To help students better understand and master the techniques, Cen Jiexiao also drew numerous illustrations, detailing everything from acupuncture points to facial muscles, striving for clarity and ease of understanding. These modern beauty concepts, which once existed only in her mind, were gradually brought to life in this ancient era.
The first group of students began their intensive training under the guidance of fifteen "senior sisters." These "senior sisters" were carefully selected by Sister Cen for their intelligence and keen interest in beauty. After a period of "tough training" from Sister Cen, they had already mastered the basic techniques of modern beauty and were familiar with various beauty products.
"A Tao, your technique is too strong! It will pull the skin and cause fine lines!" A "senior sister" was instructing a student on facial massage. While correcting the student's movements, she patiently explained the key points. "Remember, beauty is a delicate art that requires careful understanding and gentle care."
The students were full of enthusiasm for the new beauty knowledge, and the learning atmosphere was very strong. They discussed and learned from each other, and the classroom was filled with laughter. It seemed that it was no longer a serious classroom, but a boudoir for sharing beauty experiences.
At the same time, Cen Jiexiao began preparing for the opening of Jinxiu Yantang. She chose a location on the city's busiest street and invited the most famous craftsmen in Linkang Prefecture to decorate the shop according to her designs.
"What I want is a feeling of grandeur and splendor, yet elegance and refinement, like stepping into a fairyland in mythology, which makes people's eyes bright and reluctant to leave!" Cen Jiexiao tried hard to describe the picture in her mind to the craftsman.
The craftsman was stunned when he heard this. He had never seen such a "fantastic" request before, but the wages offered by Cen Jiexiao were so generous that he could only bite the bullet and try his best to meet the requirements of this "strange woman".
In addition to decorating the store, Cen Jiexiao also personally blended various beauty products. She scoured the city's pharmacies, big and small, searching for rare medicinal herbs. Based on modern cosmetic formulas and combining them with ancient beauty secrets, she developed a series of unique products.
"This Pearl Jade Muscle Powder is made of high-quality pearl powder, angelica dahurica, white poria and other precious medicinal materials, combined with an exclusive secret recipe, and carefully ground. It has the effect of whitening and removing spots, and evens out skin tone. Long-term use can make the skin as translucent and fair as pearls." While introducing the new product she developed to Yu Lan and Xiao Zhi, Cen Jiexiao handed them a box of beautifully packaged "Pearl Jade Muscle Powder".
"Come on, give it a try and see how it works?"
Yu Lan and Xiao Zhi had long been curious about the "bottles and jars" developed by Cen Jiexiao. Seeing that she was so generous, they naturally did not want to miss the opportunity to try them. They couldn't wait to open the box and carefully look at the powder inside. A faint fragrance wafted into their noses, which was refreshing.
To promote "Jinxiu Yantang," Cen Jiexiao had a brilliant idea: to go big! She planned to host a groundbreaking beauty exhibition at Zhaoyin Academy, the city's most popular cultural center.
Cen Jiexiao personally designed a unique invitation, carved from golden nanmu wood, exuding a faint sandalwood scent and inlaid with tiny pearls, a truly luxurious sight. The invitations encompassed a wide range of celebrities from all walks of life in the city, from high-ranking officials to wealthy businessmen, and even some reclusive celebrities received this special invitation.
As soon as the news came out, it was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, causing a thousand waves, and the entire Linkang Prefecture was boiling!
On the day of the exhibition, the square of Zhaoyin Academy was packed with people, a hundred times more lively than during the Chinese New Year.
Cen Jiexiao ordered people to build a high platform in the center of the square. This was not an ordinary platform, but was made of marble, shining brightly in the sun.
The stage was covered with a red carpet—and no ordinary red carpet, either—woven from the finest silk and embroidered with lifelike phoenix designs. The surrounding area was adorned with exotic flowers and plants flown in from all over the world, their fragrance rich and soothing. Colorful ribbons fluttered in the wind, like fairy streamers, a breathtaking spectacle. The entire scene was like a dream, a celestial wonderland.
After being skillfully decorated by fifteen senior sisters, the women who recently participated in the early access event were all radiant. Dressed in gorgeous clothes and walking lightly, they looked like fairies from a painting. In modern times, they would definitely be anchors with millions of followers.
The ladies and young ladies in the audience were stunned and envious.
"Oh my God! Is this really the Madam Li with the freckles all over her face? She's like a completely different person! Her skin and complexion are even more delicate than a young girl!" A noblewoman exclaimed excitedly, and the ladies around her echoed, "Yes, yes, it's incredible! This isn't just a beauty treatment, it's pure magic!"
"And Miss Wang, she used to be fat and had dark yellow skin, but now she has become so graceful, with fair and delicate skin. She has been reborn!" Another lady covered her mouth, her face full of disbelief.
"I heard that Jinxiu Yantang's beauty products are made from rare medicinal herbs and exclusive secret recipes, and the effects are amazing! I want to try it too, I want to become beautiful too!" A young lady couldn't wait to experience the magical power of Jinxiu Yantang.
"That's right! Look at Madam Li. She tried so many folk remedies and spent so much money to get rid of her freckles, but nothing worked. Now, after using Jinxiu Yantang's products, she's become so young and beautiful. It's amazing!"
"And Miss Wang, she used to diet and exercise every day to lose weight, but the results were minimal. I didn't expect that Jinxiu Yantang's beauty products could actually reshape her body. It's such a pleasant surprise!"
"Yes, yes, I want to try it too. I want to become beautiful too! I want to have fair and flawless skin like Madam Li, and a graceful figure like Miss Wang!"
"I want one too! I want one too!" The ladies in the audience talked excitedly, vying to experience the magical power of Jinxiu Yantang.
