CH 8

Ginjiro is now in a pinch.

Cohen-san, the head maid in front of him, is asking him a lot of questions.

Ginjiro can answer as many questions about things he knows, but he is troubled by the questions about things he doesn’t know.

The tea party meeting went well, thanks to Ginjiro’s easy-to-understand presentation.

It was good that I was able to confirm what the participants could not eat and what they liked.

As for the birthday cake surprise, if we imagine the faces of the participants and act accordingly, we should be fine.

There might be some minor problems during the actual event, but I told them that even those problems should be enjoyed as a surprise.

When it came to confirming the birthday present, Ginjiro took out the requested items.

It was a set of famous brand cosmetics and a set of high-end basic cosmetics.

Sophia had ordered four sets in total.

The birthday girl, Iris, her friend, Laina, Sophia’s mother, and Cohen-san, the head maid.

I thought it would be better to have one for Sophia as well, so I bought a total of five sets from the online store.

Sebastian, the butler, received four sets, and Cohen-san, the head maid, received the remaining one set.

“Sophia-sama, is it really all right for me to take it?”

“Of course. When Ginjiro was talking about make-up, you seemed to want it so badly. Cohen will learn to apply makeup and give it to my Mother.”

Cohen-san bows deeply with tears in her eyes.

I don’t know much about nobility, but it was something nice about Sophia, a person who could care even about her servants.

“Thank you, Sophia-sama. I will never forget this favor. I will do my best to learn makeup and make Sophia-sama feel relieved that she gave me cosmetics.”

A woman’s age is not something I can ask, but Cohen-san is probably in her late thirties or so.

She is tall, with arms and legs like a model.

“Ginjiro, teach Cohen how to apply cosmetics.”

Now I’am the one who is in trouble. I don’t know anything about makeup.

Though a few minutes ago, I was the one saying, “Imagine the joy on the other person’s face and act accordingly.” and “ Trouble is a surprise to be enjoyed”.

“Sure thing. First, let me explain to you about basic cosmetics, and let’s try them once.”

Since this is a woman’s makeup, I will ask Sebastian to leave the place.

“First of all, you need to wash your face. Using lukewarm water, remove dirt and grease from your face with this soap. It has foam that is very fine, so don’t scrub your face, but instead, gently rub your face with the foam in the palm of your hand and rinse it off.”

There are soap-like products in this world, but nothing that foams and removes dirt like this, apparently.

With the help of Amelie, the maid, Cohen-san washes her face and gently wipes off the water with a towel.

“I didn’t know that just washing my face could do this.”

Cohen-san touches her clean and beautiful skin.

Amelie, the maid, is entranced by Cohen-san.

“Next is lotion. This will moisturize your skin.”

“Moisturize right?”

From a male point of view, I don’t think there is any problem, but from a female point of view, it must be a serious issue.

Ginjiro does explain this area too much, and proceeds without hesitation.

“Next, use this serum. After moisturizing your skin with lotion, we will nourish your skin with the serum.”

Cohen-san looked beautiful with nothing on her face, but now her skin is dazzlingly beautiful with added luster and moisture.

The last step is to lock the moisturize. This glowing, plumped up skin is then locked in with a cream.

With the basic makeup done, I called Sebastian over to see Cohen-san.

Sebastian’s eyes widened for a moment, but he quickly returned to work mode.

It was a surprisingly woman transforming moment, even for that calm and collected Sebastian.

So far so good ……

I was able to tell her about basic cosmetics because I knew something about them from TV and magazines.

However, as for the cosmetics set, I just bought a famous brand and had no idea how to use it.

For the basic cosmetics, I was able to explain the knowledge I had only heard about as if I were a professional, and was able to make a dramatic change in Cohen-san’s appearance.

At this point, the other party’s expectations had been pushed to the limit.

I could understand that concealer can remove blemishes, but I could only vaguely understand eye shadow and blush.

Ginjiro was at a loss to explain.

Cohen-san and Amelie’s expectant eyes are very painful.

Sophia was also looking at me with concern.

It was Sebastian who helped me.

“Ginjiro-sama does not know everything. Ginjiro-sama has performed one miracle. The rest is up to the head maid to study the makeup while trying it on.”

Ginjiro thanks Sebastian in his heart.

“Well, you mustn’t bother Ginjiro. Just do your own research on your makeup, I’ll tell my Mother.”

“Thank you, Sophia-sama and Ginjiro-sama. I will never forget this favor. I will study makeup and hope to repay your kindness someday.”

The meeting ended with Ginjiro explaining the features and usage of the cosmetics that he was vaguely familiar with.
