Chapter 162 - 162 Lipsticks
162 Lipsticks
Shao Yunduan smiled. “Okay, go ahead!”
He had no idea what other strange thing she was going to work upon.
Shao Yunduan was confused. Exactly how many strange books had she read?
Qiao Xuan was about to say something when she ended up smiling. “Then, I will be off now!”
Saying so, she ran away.
She had no time to waste. There was only half a day left.
Qiao Xuan asked Shao Taotao to give her a hand. Shao Xiaoqi joined them too, when he saw them in a frenzy.
The three of them came to the floral field, and plucked pink roses.
There were three colors of roses, pink, rosy and orange.
Qiao Xuan had used her superpower secretly, so the flowers bloomed and the fragrance became stronger.
It was the flouris.h.i.+ng time for the roses in May.
Qiao Xuan had tried to keep control of the growth, yet she could not control nature’s vitality too much. Moreover, she needed to get down to making lipsticks as soon as possible.
If she used her superpower, the roses would keep blooming until the end of June.
Apart from these, there were China roses which bloomed throughout the year.
Soon, they would also witness pomegranate flowers.
Those were enough for her to make lipsticks.
It was very easy to pick flowers, and the brother and sister soon had a basket filled with flowers.
They poured the flowers into the basket next to Qiao Xuan before going back to pick some more.
Qiao Xuan grabbed all the petals and put them into another basket.
Then she put the petals into jars one handful after another, grinding them.
The juice was extracted, filtered and mixed with the beeswax in a jar, whilst some almond powder bought from the pharmacy as well as some seed-oil which had been laced with her superpower was put inside. She stirred it smoothly!
Then she poured the liquid into a mode, and smoothed away the top. After that, she carefully put the whole thing into the lipstick tube, and zipped up the opening. With that, one lipstick was done.
Qiao Xuan had the itch of using that lipstick immediately. It looked smooth and bright, fresh and tender, giving out the fragrance of roses.
Perfect!
It took almost two hours before the whole thing was done. It was evening when the first batch was finished.
In the end, they had 12 tubes of lipsticks.
They all had the same color, a beautiful, deep pink shade!
She was going to fetch red roses, and deep red-colored China roses as well as orange-color roses for another batch respectively. With that, all the samples would be done.
She was going to mix the color so different shades of lipsticks could be made.
And she could even make use of different kinds of mountain flowers, wild flowers growing in different seasons for all kinds of lipsticks.
Shao Xiaoqi and Shao Taotao were confused when they saw the strange thing that their adorable Fifth Sister-in-law had made.
“Fifth Sister-in-law, what is it? Is it for fun?”
Shao Xiaoqi asked after some time.
It was not food, apparently, but was it a toy? How could it be a toy?
Shao Xiaoqi really could not fathom what it was…
Shao Taotao blinked in confusion as well.
Qiao Xuan smiled. “That is called lipstick! Same as a blusher but for lips!”
Shao Xiaoqi was still confused, but Shao Taotao’s eyes brightened. Ah ha! She finally realized what it was.
“Fifth Sister-in-law, is it for lips? It looks so good, beautiful and convenient!”
Shao Taotao cheered excitedly!
