[Transmigration + satisfying business story + demon-realm beauty products + no System + clear-headed heroine building her career + ensemble cast]
Xu Nanzhi transmigrates into the body of an orphan who runs a dilapidated cosmetics shop on the outskirts of Qingyu City in the demon realm.
Her parents died young, her uncle drained the shop's coffers, creditors are at the door, and the shelves are so bare the wind could blow right through them.
Everyone is waiting to see her shut up shop and get out.
Xu Nanzhi looks over the mountain of bad debts and slowly rolls up her sleeves.
No System, no golden finger?
No problem.
Before transmigrating, she worked in beauty products. She knows faces, makeup, product development, and how to identify what customers need.
Other people sell face powder with nothing but hype.
She sells cosmetics with patch tests, clear labels, and follow-up checks.
Other people pile heavy makeup on their wealthy clients.
She can instantly assess their skin tone, bone structure, clothing colors, and the occasion. Even a light touch of makeup can make them the center of attention.
Fox Fragrance House mocks her little shop for being shabby, then turns around and copies her looks, steals her customers, and smashes her sign.
Xu Nanzhi doesn't argue or make a fuss. She lays out the account books and holds up her clear labels.
Whoever uses improper ingredients, sells goods on empty promises, or gambles with a customer's face is exposed on the spot.
Step by step, the little shop on the outskirts becomes a famous establishment in the inner city.
The cool-faced young shopkeeper and her team of women set up everything, from the front desk and inspection room to the makeup stations, accounts office, back room, and traveling cases.
Before long, every woman in Qingyu City knows:
If you want to outshine everyone, go to the Xu family.
If you want to avoid getting your face ruined, go to the Xu family.
If you want to learn how to turn a rundown shop into the industry standard, you definitely have to go to the Xu family.
Starting with a little cosmetics shop on the verge of collapse, Xu Nanzhi carves out a whole new path for beauty in the demon realm.
She wants to make money.
But she also wants everyone who walks into the Xu family's shop to understand, clearly and for themselves:
What it takes to make their face look beautiful.
Currently giving it four stars!! I felt that there was a bit of chaos after chapter 80, because two names appeared early, which made me confused at the time. But! The subject matter of this movie is very novel. I really like to read long-term articles. In the article, I can see that the store is getting on the right track little by little. It is able to be orderly and maintain the core of "not chaos" when facing so many trivial things. It is very powerful to read. Every specific area, every shelf, every box, every piece of cloth, and even every small brush can find its own place. It is written very delicately. When I see it, I will think of the furnishings of the store. I have the feeling of being a guest in the book. It is really reassuring to watch the store getting better little by little. It has the feeling of being run and cultivated like an udon hotel! Looking forward to how it will develop in the future!
