One is that rouge originated from Huns. This is based on the records of books such as "The Old Story of Xihe". It is said that when the Huns lost Qilian Mountain and Yan Zhishan in Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, they once sang a sad song: "The death of Qilian Mountain made my six animals unhappy; The loss of my rouge mountain made my married wife colorless. "Yan Zhi, also known as Yan Zhi, is full of Yan Zhihua, that is, safflower. When Huns marry women, they must pick their flowers, squeeze their juice and make them coagulate fat as ornaments. Later, Yan Zhicai wrote Yan Zhi and Rouge.
Second, rouge began in the theory of Shang and Zhou Dynasties. According to Yi Er Ji, "Yan set up her own makeup and coagulated her fat with red and blue juice, thinking that the peach blossom makeup was made by Yan State, so it was called Yan Zhi." The invention of rouge has a history of 3000 years. Nowadays, as a cosmetic, it is not only deeply loved by people in China, but also very popular all over the world.
