It's not just in the Capital City, even among those families with some background, who doesn't have a few beauty and skincare recipes?
Lady Qi's family was no exception. She liked to mix and play with make-up and powders when she was a maiden and had quite a bit of knowledge.
After marrying into the Du Family, a family of medical practitioners, her relationship with her husband was good. In private moments, Imperial Doctor Du naturally customized skincare recipes for his beloved wife. Otherwise, Lady Qi wouldn't look just forty despite being over fifty.
Lady Qi recognized quality. As soon as she saw the Jade Hairpin Flowers, she immediately had her maid fetch water to cleanse her face first.
Then after applying floral skincare lotion, she opened the Jade Hairpin Flower Sticks, poured the scented powder onto her hand, and carefully smoothed it onto her face. It was indeed fragrant and white, fitting perfectly with no roughness.
