For the next month, Ding Yun, to avoid being influenced by others' doubts, deliberately stayed offline. She didn't check live streams, nor did she read any bullet comments. She diligently performed skincare routines day after day in her live stream, complementing it with internal conditioning medicine.
These were the medicines produced by the Rebirth Health Supplement Company.
The effects were evident. By the seventh day of the live stream, the state of Ding Yun's facial skin had undergone a significant transformation. It became much firmer, fairer, and more delicate. Wrinkles visibly reduced, and various imperfections gradually faded.
By the twenty-first day.
It might be an exaggeration to call it the skin of a maiden.
But it had indeed recovered to a state comparable to that of someone in their late twenties or early thirties with good skin.
What does one mean by "good skin"?
It refers to ordinary, healthy, neutral skin types.
Skin that is too dry is prone to wrinkles and other dry-related issues. Oily skin can lead to acne and blackheads. Combination oily skin, if not managed well, can even present a mix of both problems, making skincare more troublesome.
Compared to oily, dry, or sensitive skin.
Neutral skin is a gift from heaven. As long as one doesn't mess with their skincare and disrupt the skin's balance, not only is it less prone to problems, but it also appears relatively younger. Simple hydration is enough to maintain a good state.
This is innate; it's truly enviable.
It's also very difficult to achieve this through acquired means.
The original body was of neutral skin type. Aging was merely a result of the hardships suffered in childhood and a difficult life in adulthood that ultimately led to it.
The current skincare is merely a restoration to the original state.
Even with the same skin condition, someone without worries and someone who toils endlessly for survival will inevitably have different skin conditions. They are incomparable. The skin aging caused by dual mental and psychological exhaustion is far more severe than simple aging.
This is also why Ding Yun had to take conditioning medicine. The original body's aging was significantly more advanced than that of its peers. Without conditioning, the skin's state would be difficult to restore.
Ding Yun's visible changes in her own live stream were apparent, and the changes in others' live streams were naturally not minor.
After a month, everyone had undergone a drastic transformation compared to before. Those with more facial imperfections initially saw more dramatic changes. The least change was observed in the trial member who initially had few imperfections and primarily tested moisturizing skincare products.
She could only say her skin condition had improved.
She hadn't suddenly become a celestial beauty.
But she wasn't using any potent, functional products to begin with. An improved skin condition was already satisfactory and proved that their products were indeed effective.
When the final results came out.
Had it not been for everyone live-streaming daily and people witnessing their gradual recovery day by day, some might have suspected it was doctored photos or even special effects.
As the live streams concluded, the "Breakthrough Skincare" company, one of the two companies founded by Ding Yun, undoubtedly became the most sought-after skincare brand during that period.
Everyone was scrambling to buy.
Pre-orders were for half a month, and people were still clamoring to buy a month later.
Those who had discovered the efficacy half a month before the live streams even began and had quickly purchased the products were now applying the Breakthrough Skincare, which had shown clear results after half a month, and looking at the others with a smile.
They also took the opportunity to boast about their foresight.
Of course, those who believed at the time that these skincare products had great potential and would definitely sell well, and therefore stocked up and resold them at a higher price, also had excellent sales.
Their sales were so good that they regretted not stocking up more.
As a result, Ding Yun, who was finally free from daily live streaming, promptly urged the factory to purchase more raw materials and production lines to accelerate production. She believed that anyone who bought her products during this wave of popularity would never abandon them for other brands after trying them.
As for the health supplements, whose sales were still relatively average.
Ding Yun did not increase their promotion, as these products were indeed difficult to promote. If advertised with a curative effect, they risked being accused of false advertising. If promoted as ordinary health supplements, they couldn't compete with the exaggerated claims of "curing all diseases."
Furthermore, many raw materials were difficult to find substitutes for.
Ding Yun was diligently working on acquiring land to cultivate raw materials, so there was no need to rush. For now, she instructed people to promote them with a focus on internal conditioning and external nourishment, selling them alongside the skincare products. They would quietly wait for word-of-mouth to build.
In any case, the profit from skincare was sufficient.
There was no need to be overly anxious.
For a long time afterward, the popularity of Breakthrough Skincare did not wane. As the products were gradually sold and used by consumers for half a month to a month, their exceptionally effective nourishing and repairing effects left no one unsatisfied.
Who in this world doesn't want to be beautiful?
Those who prefer ugliness are ultimately a minority.
Many might hesitate when they only hear about how good something is online. But when they see their friends, their closest confidantes, or even rivals suddenly have their facial imperfections vanish, their skin condition improve significantly, and their entire demeanor become more vibrant.
Who wouldn't be curious and ask?
And after asking, who wouldn't try it?
Moreover, the prices Ding Yun set were not high, far from being luxury items. Products costing a few hundred yuan at most could be considered mid-range skincare, or even mid-to-low-range. A complete set would cost around a thousand yuan, which most people could afford with a little saving.
If the sole purpose was to treat facial imperfections.
A single set of functional skincare products would suffice.
After all, as long as they weren't used excessively, a set of skincare products could last for a month without any issues. With the major facial problems resolved within a month, subsequent use would not need to be so frequent; a set could last for three months, or even six months.
Even after the imperfections were completely resolved, using basic moisturizers instead of functional skincare would be even more cost-effective.
Therefore, the sales volume of Breakthrough Skincare.
Was increasing visibly every day.
Some people, fearing that the products might become too popular and prices might increase later, deliberately stockpiled many items. After all, the skincare industry wasn't without precedents of prices increasing every few years due to overwhelming sales.
With past lessons learned, who wouldn't take precautions?
In just three months, Ding Yun's final sales figures had exceeded one hundred million. This didn't refer to the monetary value of the sales, but the number of products sold.
Even the cheapest facial cleanser in her store cost ninety-nine yuan.
Without any discounts or promotions,
It's easy to imagine how high the actual sales revenue was.
