172 172 - Make-up and mechanics

    When I participated in the TV show as Jack, I was made up by the make-up team, but since my character was of little importance and the make-up artists thought I was already pretty enough, the make-up they put on my face was just what was necessary to make my skin stand out well against the studio lighting and not look weird when the camera was recording me.

    But when I thought about the Kpop idols of my former world, both male and female, who wore a lot of makeup and managed to go from a 7 out of 10 face to a 9 out of 10 face or even a 10 out of 10 face, I wondered if it wasn''t possible to wear makeup to look prettier and get another charisma point.

    [Charisma (CHA): 17 (16 + 1)]

    I currently had 16 charisma points that really belonged to me, plus one point for my perfectly cut hair. If I added another point for my well-made makeup, I would have 18 points... which was already a level of beauty and appearance far above normal.

    I was so in control of my appearance, with a score so close to 20 points, that I was sure it would only help my career more and more.

    It''s not that "being pretty" is a bad thing; on the contrary, the prettier a person was, the more pleasant he or she was to look at, and the easier it was to like such a person compared to an ugly person.

    But unfortunately, even if I wanted to test this, I couldn''t test it now because I didn''t even know the names of makeup products, let alone how to apply them to my face to make me look good.

    But I knew that if I had enough practice, I could use it to improve my appearance.

    Even if Lv10 makeup wasn''t good enough, what if this skill reached Lv20? What about Lv 30? Imagine this skill at Lv 40? What nuances would I know, how well would I know makeup to be able to enhance someone''s appearance with this skill?

    So I started to think about it as something really useful to learn and decided to talk to Liv about it.

    Arriving at her bedroom door, which was only slightly closed, I knocked with my knuckles.

    Knock knock "Hey Liv." I said.

    "Noah?! Come in." She replied from inside the room.

    Slowly opening the door, I looked around the room and noticed her sitting at her dressing table applying makeup to her face, the perfect moment!

    "I think I''ve arrived at the perfect moment hehe." I laughed as I walked over and sat down on her bed, making her stop what she was doing and look at me in confusion.

    "Perfect time for what? I''m just doing my makeup..." She asked.

    So I explained my thoughts on makeup and how much good it could do for my career, making her surprised at my idea and excited to be able to help me.

    "Sure, if you want I can teach you and explain everything I know!" She replied happily.

    With how much I''d helped her with the violin and all the other things around the house, this was one of the few times I''d needed her help, and seeing her feel so useful brought a smile to my face.

    Throughout her make-up process, she began to explain to me the basics of everything she was doing, the name of each product, the brand, what the product was used for, how she used the product in the best way, how she used two different products to combine the two and give a satisfactory result.

    At first I felt that even though she was explaining her knowledge of makeup to me, she was still looking at me from time to time to see if I was really paying attention and interested.

    But when she saw that I was really interested in her explanations, even actively asking questions, Liv began to loosen up more and started firing information at me, explaining everything she could, to the point that I was starting to have trouble remembering everything she said.

    It would even be interesting to get more girls interested in cars, because in this world the car culture was much weaker than in my previous world.

    And as long as I didn''t record myself doing anything illegal, like betting on illegal races or doing wrong things while recording, it wouldn''t affect my public image either, and I could even get some sponsors to give me some parts to improve the car for free hehe.

    It was a win-win situation that I would just enjoy the benefits of.

    And when I felt how well this low, sporty car glided around the track, I knew that turning this machine into a monster would be a lot of fun!

    After some time on the road, we finally arrived at the barbecue spot.

    Because I was driving faster with Ethan, we arrived a few minutes before my parents, but I quickly spotted Selena''s white Tesla and parked next to her, letting her know I had arrived so she could meet me in the parking lot.

    Even though I wasn''t going to perform now, I invited her to join us to enjoy the pre-performance event.
