Lady of the Lord From the East

Chapter 62

The cosmetic case brought by Wei Wei is special. The outer layer is made of hard cowhide, with a clear skin texture and smooth hand feel. Compared with the original wooden case, it is much lighter. After opening, the grid inside will automatically expand. Larger bottles and jars are placed on the lower layer, and there are oblate ceramic rouge boxes in the unfolded lattices of the middle and upper layers. There is no rouge in the rouge box, but various colors of lipstick, eye shadow, foundation, and blush. In addition, the vanity case has a complete set of makeup brushes wrapped in leather and a hand mirror with a handle.

Note that this hand mirror is not the kind of metal mirror that is still somewhat blurred after metal polishing, but a glass mirror made by attaching tin foil to flat glass with mercury.

This production process should have appeared after the 16th century. The difficulty is not very high, mainly because large pieces of flat glass cannot be made, so Wei Wei and alchemist Roger Raymond pondered in the laboratory. For a long time, I could only make such a mirror that was not much bigger than a slap.

This kind of small mirror is naturally one of the products that will be included in Sardinson's sales list soon and will become a luxury product because of the high difficulty of production.

Before being attracted by the variety of cosmetics, the base is made of sterling silver, and the exquisite hand mirror with a lot of flower carvings immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Hand mirrors are not uncommon, almost every noblewoman has one, but it is the first time I have seen such a clear mirror.

After consulting Wei Wei, Mrs. Nelson was the first to pick up the hand mirror. When her face was reflected in the mirror, the lady who had always been very polite couldn't help covering her mouth and gasping. in one breath.

"God, this is too clear!" She could even see the fluff on her face and the foundation that was too thick.

"Let's take a look too!"

The other ladies were aroused by her curiosity, and they reached out to grab the hand mirror, and then they were all stunned and stunned by this ultra-high-definition mirror.

"It's the first time I see what I look like."

"Me too, oops, look, I still have a mole here, I didn't find it before."

"So my eyes look like this..."

The hand mirrors are passed around in the hands of the women, and every change of hands will cause a burst of exclamation. Everyone's expressions are exaggerated, but this is probably a unique way of expression in the aristocratic circle. When they express their emotions, always somewhat dramatic.

Speaking of drama, there seems to be no entertainment like opera at this time, right?

It seems that another development project has been found. Wei Wei's attention suddenly shifted.

The mirror turned around in the hands of the women and then returned to Mrs. Nelson's hands again. To be honest, after the initial surprise, everyone's attention turned to their appearance and makeup. To be honest, Compared with the proud queens these days, they are even more dissatisfied with the makeup on their faces.

It's not that I didn't try to use the existing makeup to paint the queen's makeup. The eyebrows are the best imitations. Although the colors of blush and lipstick are not as pure and changeable as the queen, similar effects are also possible.

But they couldn't get the same eye makeup, and the powder on their faces was not as natural as the queen's. After seeing the queen's makeup, they naturally disliked the effect they imitated.
