It had been a few days since she’d dealt with a break in at the Scarlet Sanctum, and it had been quite the unnerving experience. Rushing throughout the whorehouse in the midst of the darkness had proved to be quite the difficult process and left the young dancer with a rather nasty bruise on her thigh. Most men didn’t find that terribly attractive so it was something that Sophie had to fix before she went out to try her luck getting herself ‘gainfully’ employed that evening.
Opening her toilette kit, Sophie began to pull out various small containers which held the various cosmetics of which she made routine use. Powders, pastes, rogue, khol, lip pomade, and various brushes and tools for applying the beauty products all came forth, resting on a small table before her. The room was one that a lot of the employees used for the same purpose. It was looks that made them a good chunk of their going, so looks they would enhance.
After she got her bruise covered, of course.
Sophie started with a light paste, light yellow in its color. The reasons for this were twofold. One, it was effective at covering the ugly blue-ish black-purple shades of the bruise. It would layer nicely over the skin, and she just had to adjust it until it was covered with (hopefully) not having to use terribly much of the foundation. The young woman gingerly scooped out a bit of the paste and began to gently apply it to her left thigh where the brunt of the impact had occurred. It was about an inch from top to bottom and two across, sporting a lovely dark purple to really draw attention to it against her pale white skin. She’d become well acquainted with the side of a table in earning that particular mark.
Wincing as she applied it, Sophitia began to rub the paste into the bruise, trying not to put too much pressure against her injury. The last thing she wanted to do was make her bruise even worse, which is something she’d done before. Slowly, in small circles the tips of her right index finger smoothed the paste over the bruise. When it wasn’t enough to get it done, she retrieved more of the foundation and set about continue to covering her small injury. The first layer and the second layer joined together as the moist cream was placed and maneuvered about on top of the other. Small circles, not too hard, and three light layers later, the bruise was disguised.
The only problem now, was the very obviously yellow blotch just on her inner left thigh. Frowning, she changed her focus to an almost white powder. This one was nearly the same color as her skin, and that would work perfectly. With the bruise covered, she could now set on about making it actually match her skin. Taking a brush in one hand and the container of powder in the other, Sophie placed the bristles in the powder and circled it until she’d gotten enough within its grasp. She then began to blend the powder and the paste together until the two became more uniform. It wasn’t perfect but it did minimize the difference and at least it wasn’t so obvious.
”Come on, Soph, we’ve got to get out there.” One of the other workers motioned for her to hurry, and Sophie wasted no further time on her make up. Quickly it was closed up and tossed in her kit and then she set about getting dressed. Her nude form was soon covered, but not by much. A pair of silky black panties and a chemise of the same fabric were all that protected her smooth flesh from the lecherous eyes that soon devour her appearance.
Once out in the main area, Sophie set about finding herself a target. Rich men hadn’t done well for her, and poor men didn’t tip. There had to be something in between, and she was set on finding it and doing whatever she could to get the coin from their pocket into hers. For now she would saunter about between tables until she hopefully caught the eye of someone that could entice her with a flash of gold.
