    The Dresser for Villagers

    刘润老家在四川省内江市资中县归德镇,在这个人数不到3万人的小镇上,刘润每天早晨起床,在去菜市场的路上、去发廊的途中、取快递的道上,沿途都会搜寻哪些人适合用来化妆“改造”。

    Liu Run was born in Guide Town, Zizhong County, Neijiang City, Sichuan Province, a town with no more than 30000 residents. When she gets up in the morning, on her way to the vegetable market, hair salon, and delivery station, she detects her possible models among the passers-by.

    一开始,村里人对刘润的行为大为不解。面对大家的质疑、不愿意配合,刘润并没有灰心丧气:有些阿姨看起来不愿意,但又对她的化妆品很好奇,或者看似挑剔又不好意思地说“我上镜不好看”之类的话。“一般这种就有戏”。

    At first, the villagers didn’t understand her. She didn't give up on those doubts and disagreements. Some aunties looked reluctant but was curious about her cosmetics on the other hand, and some looked picky but murmured things like "I don't look well on camera". For Liu Run, these are her potential models.

    有反差,更要有合适的style

    Style and Contrast

    在上妆前,刘润喜欢打量对方的基本五官特色,通过和对方聊天,把握对方的性格和喜好。“其实很多人并不知道自己喜欢和适合什么妆容,这时我就会提供多个方案。”

    Before starting, Liu Run would observe the models'facial features, and get to know their personalities and habits by chatting. "In fact, many people have no idea what they like and fit, and I will give them several plans."

    刘润上妆也有自己的中心思想:“反差要大!”比如,一对在菜市场宰鸭子的农村姐弟,姐姐长得比较丰腴大气,胖胖的很可爱,刘润瞬间觉得姐姐很像唐代仕女图里的美人。

    Liu Run's key idea of makeup is "the great contrast". For example, she once met a pair of elder sister and younger brother butchers. It occurred to Liu Run immediately that the full and lovely sister was just like the classical lady in Tang paintings.

    有一次刘润取快递遇到一位女生,皮肤被晒得有些小麦色,她觉得那个女生五官长得比较日系,刘润为她上妆后,整个画风仿佛让女孩重回校园;一位留着超短发的农村餐馆老板娘,刘润觉得酷酷的她适合偏欧美风格的妆容,于是把她化妆成一个充满时尚感的女说唱歌手……

    Once, Liu Run met a girl with a dark complexion.Her face, in Liu Run's point of view, was of Japanese style. Liu Run put makeup on her and almost turned her into a schoolgirl. There was once a rural restaurant owner with very short hair. Liu Run thought she looked cool and was suitable for the western style, and turned her into a fashionable female rapper.

    渐渐地,有村民开始主动找刘润化妆。“村里的女性一般比较腼腆。”刘润说,但是当自己为她们化妆以后,有些人会很兴奋一直照镜子;有些人会拿手机自拍,把照片和小视频分享到朋友圈。“其实大家还是喜欢生活中偶尔有些仪式感的美好。”

    Gradually, some villagers started to come to Liu Run to get makeup. "The village ladies are relatively shy", Liu Run said. However, when they put on makeup, some of them would keep looking at the mirrors excitedly, and some would take selfies and share them on social medias. "In fact, people like the ceremonial beautiful moments in their lives."

    都要爱自己,无论姐妹或孃孃

    She Should Love Herself

    刘润做乡村美妆博主源于她的母亲。一次尝试为母亲上妆让刘润想到:这种化妆方式或许也可以给全村女性带来不一样的体验,把这个过程拍下来应该很有意思。

    Liu Run's idea of being a rural makeup vlogger was derived from her mother. When she was putting on the makeup for her mother, it occurred to her that makeup may change all the village ladies and it should be interesting to record it.

    2019年底,刘润从成都回到老家,拍摄乡村美妆视频,她想陪着外婆,过家人都在身边的日子。

    At the end of 2019, Liu Run came back home from Chengdu to take rural makeup videos. She wanted to be with her grandma and her family.

    “一个乡村美妆博主,立志让全村人都变美”,是刘润在B站上的自我介绍,“我希望女性不仅仅是女儿、老婆、妈妈、奶奶的身份,她们更是她们自己,大家都有追求美丽的勇气和机会,不要忘记多多爱自己。”刘润说。

    "A rural makeup vlogger determined to make all the villagers beautiful."This is Liu Run's introduction on Bilibili.com. "A woman should be herself more than a daughter, wife, mother, or grandma. She should have the courage and chance to be beautiful. She should love herself"said Liu Run.
