Chapter 8 Making Lipstick
She is ready to do the same as in her previous life, selling cosmetics, first lipstick, and blush.
And most of the girls in this year, because they use red paper to sip their mouths, the color distribution is uneven, and it doesn't last long, and it fades after a little bit.
Nowadays, women are a little beautiful, especially young girls, and they like to dress up, so this is the main group of customers.
The cost of making lipstick is not high, mainly color powder, as well as beeswax, and as for the tools, you can use them at home.
Fang Xishui saw some flowers on the road, some red and some pink, the red nature is red water red and the like, pink ...... Death Barbie fans. So she picked some and put them in her pocket.
She went to Aunt Niu's house not far away, Aunt Niu's family sells farmed honey to sell honey, Aunt Niu's husband had bronchitis, went to the city, and the doctor asked him to scrambled eggs with beeswax to eat, so they have their own beeswax extracted at home.
Fang Xishui asked Aunt Niu for some beeswax, Aunt Niu has felt sorry for this child since she was a child, after all, her family is patriarchal, she is pitiful, and in distress, Aunt Niu gave her a large lump of beeswax, and Fang Xishui hurriedly thanked her.
After Fang Xishui went back, he took out a bowl, put all the petals in the bowl, added a small amount of water, crushed the petals with a spoon, squeezed the petals to get out the pigment, and finally put the color water in a small can, put the can on top of the pot, and heat it underneath.
This empty canned food was still some imported canned fruit that Li Meihong brought back from shopping in the county town before, and gave it to Fang Zhongguo to eat, after he finished eating, he threw it away directly, and was picked up by Fang Xishui, but he didn't expect it to be useful.
She stirred with chopsticks and added beeswax to the can to solidify.
Her family has olive oil, but oil is a precious thing, when Li Meihong bought this back, she only asked Fang Zhongguo to supplement her nutrition, so in addition to adding more when he cooks alone, she usually doesn't let Fang Xishui put more.
A drop or two of olive oil was added to the back of Fang Xishui, just to make this lipstick more colorful.
After it solidified slightly, Fang Xishui took out a rubber glove, and then poured all the solidified liquid into this rubber glove. It is the size of a middle finger lipstick.
Then she carried the glove and added cold water to cool it naturally.
This cold water is well water, and the well water is cold and cold, but it is as frozen as ice water.
When the time came, she squeezed out the lipstick in the glove, and finally it was really a formed lipstick!
She took this lipstick and wiped it into her mouth, and as a result, looking in the mirror, the color rendering and moisturizing degree of this color are very good, and the special flush of the air color looks like water red.
She succeeded!
There were no lipstick tubes in those days, so you couldn't pour the finished lipstick into the tube.
Fang Xishui thought that Fang Zhongguo especially likes to eat sugar, so there are a lot of candy wrappers of that kind of milk rabbit candy at home, she collected the candy wrappers, and then wrapped them in lipstick, just into strips.
Later, Fang Xishui thought of tomatoes, and she went to the stove and saw a few small tomatoes, which were not completely ripe, so they were orange tomatoes.
She just took it and got the tomato juice out, which was orange in it, and she extracted the juice.
