八大明星化妝品

We have to admit, this feature is normally – how do we put this – reeking of testosterone. Cars, planes, weapons, robots, these are all things which, well, boys tend to like more than girls, lets face it. So this month we've decided to feminize Gadgets and Gizmos up a bit. That's right, we're doing – beauty products. Want to primp, curl, and dust with the best of them? Then try our guide! Boys, we know this one may be a tad boring to you – but on the positive side, think about how great it'll look.

我們得承認(rèn),這篇專題,怎么說呢,通常散發(fā)著雄性激素的氣味。說實(shí)話,汽車、飛機(jī)、武器和機(jī)器人這些東西,男孩往往比女孩更加喜歡。所以,本月我們決定讓《科技酷品》多些女性色彩。是的,我們本期主題是化妝品。想用最好的化妝品打扮、燙卷、抹粉么?那么試試我們的指南吧!男孩們,我們知道你們可能會(huì)覺得這篇有些無聊,但往好處說,想想看化妝之后女孩們?cè)撚卸嗥涟伞?/p>

1) Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler

植樹秀睫毛夾

Got long eyelashes? Want to make them super-sexy? Then you need one of these – they may look like instruments of medieval torture, but they're the best way to get curly, gorgeous lashes. If you want that 50s film star look, this is the best way to get them – a really good curler can even transform short, stubby lashes into glamorously long ones. Mascara can go some way towards giving you that bright-eyed look, but a curler will complete the picture. The Shu Uemora curler is the most iconic, used by professional makeup artists, but even a cheaper curler can work wonders. Remember to mildly heat the curler before you use it for the best results!

擁有長(zhǎng)長(zhǎng)的睫毛?想讓它們變得超級(jí)性感么?那你需要其中一款,它們或許看起來像中世紀(jì)酷刑里的刑具,但卻是你擁有美麗翹睫毛的最佳方法。如果你想長(zhǎng)得跟50年代電影明星似的,那么這就是最佳途徑。一個(gè)真正的好睫毛夾能將短而粗的睫毛變成美麗的長(zhǎng)睫毛。睫毛膏能使你的眼睛顯得明亮,而睫毛夾還能錦上添花。植樹秀睫毛夾最經(jīng)典,是專業(yè)化妝師的首選,但便宜一些的睫毛夾也能創(chuàng)造奇跡。記得在使用前稍微加熱睫毛夾,這樣才能達(dá)到最佳效果!

2) Johnson and Johnson's Baby Moisturizer

強(qiáng)生嬰兒潤(rùn)膚露

Baby products are used by many adults because they're guaranteed to be soft and harmless; I remember my mum washing us with Johnson & Johnson's – one of the most famous manufacturers – baby shampoo when we were little, because even if it got into our eyes it would barely sting. (My sister and I hated having our hair washed, so anything that made it easier was a blessing for our poor long-suffering mother.) People with sensitive skin are particularly fond of baby products, because if they're mild enough for babies' skin, which is extremely vulnerable, very few adults will be negatively affected by them. This baby moisturizer is exceptionally good because it has a very low 'playtime' – the amount of time it takes for the lotion to be absorbed into the skin – so it refreshes your skin without leaving you with that unpleasantly sticky feeling afterwards.

許多成年人使用嬰兒產(chǎn)品,因?yàn)樗鼈內(nèi)岷颓覠o害;我記得小時(shí)候母親用強(qiáng)生(最有名的廠商之一)嬰兒香波給我們洗澡,因?yàn)榧词瓜悴ㄟM(jìn)入眼睛,也幾乎感覺不到疼痛。(我們兄妹倆不喜歡洗頭,因此任何使洗頭變得簡(jiǎn)單的東西都是我們長(zhǎng)期吃苦受累的母親的福音。)皮膚敏感的人尤其喜歡嬰兒產(chǎn)品,因?yàn)樗鼈兒苋岷?適合嬰兒非常嬌嫩的皮膚,很少有成年人會(huì)感到不適。強(qiáng)生嬰兒潤(rùn)膚露很不錯(cuò),能迅速被肌膚所吸收,因此涂了之后就會(huì)感覺清爽,皮膚還不會(huì)有黏黏的感覺。

3) Colour Me Beautiful Colour Fix Lip Sealant

Colour Me Beautiful色彩修補(bǔ)唇蠟

Wow, this is an amazing product! In a little compact box, you have a small wand of lip color and a lip sealant. Apply the lip colour, and within a minute, it 'gloms' onto your lips, creating wonderfully durable colour. Apply the clear lipstick 'sealant' for a soft, semi-lustrous shine, and you won't have to reapply for hours. Better than lipstick any day, because it doesn't smear or stain under anything but the harshest conditions. Wonderful product, innovative package, economical price! L'Oreal makes a similar product which some recommend, but do you really want to give money to a company famed for their collaboration with Nazis?

哇,這可是個(gè)好東西!在一個(gè)小盒子里,有一根小唇彩棒和一個(gè)唇蠟。先涂唇彩,不出一分鐘,它就會(huì)“占據(jù)”你的嘴唇,創(chuàng)造完美持久的色彩。再涂上唇蠟,產(chǎn)生柔和的光澤,幾個(gè)小時(shí)之內(nèi)都不用再涂。它不會(huì)輕易掉色,比任何唇膏都要好。極好的產(chǎn)品,富有創(chuàng)新的套裝,還不貴呢!有人推薦歐萊雅的類似產(chǎn)品,但你真的想把錢給一個(gè)因與納粹合作而聞名的公司么?

4) That's Rich Skin Softening Face Cleanser

That's Rich柔膚潔面乳

When evaluating creams, product developers often refer to 'cushion.' Cushion refers to the density of the product and how it cushions the hands when you begin to rub the product into your skin. The more cushion a product has, the richer and creamier it is, and the more enjoyable to use. The That's Rich Cleanser has substantial cushion, melting eye makeup and comforting skin with olive oil, cocoa butter and soothing botanical extracts. Even though it contains all these rich ingredients, it still rinses off easily, and can give your face that lovely soft look.

產(chǎn)品開發(fā)人員在評(píng)價(jià)面霜時(shí)總會(huì)提到“cushion”一詞。Cushion指的是產(chǎn)品的濃度,以及你開始將產(chǎn)品涂到你的肌膚時(shí)它如何保護(hù)你的手。一個(gè)產(chǎn)品的cushion越多,它的濃度就越高,越好用。That's Rich潔面乳有充足的cushion、橄欖油、可可油和植物提取物。雖然它含有這么多濃郁的成份,但它仍然很容易洗凈,能使你的臉蛋顯得可愛又嬌嫩。

5) Thymes Fig Leaf & Cassis Foaming Milk Bath

Thymes Fig Leaf & Cassis泡泡牛奶沐浴露

Who doesn't love bath products? We were big bathers in my household when I was little, and always had a wide range of bubble baths, milk baths, and similar to hand – my sister used to like to pour two or three of them together and create an unholy witch's brew of a bath. Sadly, few homes in China have a proper bath – you might have to wait till you get a nice hotel room to use this properly, but nothing beats lying back in a nice soak. Smell is one of the most pleasant aspects of a milk bath, which is why we adore this delicious treat – the fragrance is as indulgent as the tubful of creamy, extravagant bubbles that this little envelope of riches will produce (available in candles and shower gel, too). Kiss your stress goodbye!

誰不喜歡洗浴產(chǎn)品呢?我小時(shí)候,家人都很喜歡泡澡,經(jīng)常洗泡泡浴、牛奶浴,等等。我妹妹經(jīng)常兩三種沐浴露倒在一起,把水弄得像邪惡巫婆的配方一般。不過很遺憾,很少中國(guó)家庭有好的浴盆,你可能要等到去酒店才能好好享用該產(chǎn)品了,但沒什么比躺在一個(gè)好的浴缸里更愜意的事了。氣味是牛奶浴最宜人的因素之一,這也是我們?yōu)槭裁慈绱讼矚g這個(gè)寶貝——香味跟這一小包沐浴露制造的泡泡一樣持久。跟你的郁悶吻別吧。

6) Too Faced Cosmetics Brow Envy Kit

Too Faced眉毛造型盒

Eyebrows help shape the whole look of your face, so a good eyebrow kit is essential for anybody who wants to change their image. If you want to perfectly shape your brows to give yourself that Hollywood look, this kit is a good choice – as indicated by the title, it's suitable for any hair colour. (Admittedly, most of our readers don't have a great deal of variation in hair colour, but still …) This kit includes every tool that you can possibly need to shape, fill, define and set your eyebrows perfectly.

眉毛能修飾你的臉型,因此一套好的眉毛美容工具對(duì)于任何想改變?cè)煨偷娜硕际潜貍涞?。如果你想讓你的睫毛像好萊塢明星那樣有形,這套組合就是個(gè)好選擇,就像小標(biāo)題所說,它適合各種發(fā)色。(得承認(rèn),我們的大多數(shù)讀者的發(fā)色差別不大,但仍……)這組套裝包含的工具齊全,能完美地修飾、描繪你的眉毛。

7) Guerlain Issima Midnight Secret

嬌蘭伊詩美深夜護(hù)膚霜

We call a good rest a 'beauty sleep' and it's true – sleep does wonders for your look. But if you want to stay up all night and party, you're going to need a little help. Ok, this one is expensive.Horribly expensive, in fact – you're going to be forking over 800 kwai for a bottle, and a small bottle at that! On the other hand, many Hollywood celebrities swear by it; it's described as 'sleep in a jar,' because it makes your skin look as clean and refreshed as if you'd gotten a good night's sleep. So if you want to work hard or party hard, and still look fresh and pretty in the morning, this is the key – but maybe you'd better just tone down the lifestyle a bit instead!

我們稱好的休息好為“美容覺”,睡眠的確能為你的容貌創(chuàng)造奇跡。但如果你想熬通宵參加聚會(huì),那你得需要一些幫助。好吧,這東西很貴。事實(shí)上一瓶要價(jià)就800多塊,還是一小瓶!另外,許多好萊塢明星都是它的忠實(shí)粉絲;它被稱為“在瓶子里睡覺”,因?yàn)樗鼓愕募∧w干凈又清爽,就好像你睡了一夜的好覺。所以,如果你想好好工作,或痛快地參加聚會(huì),而早上又顯得既精神又漂亮,那它就是答案,不過你最好稍微改變一下這種生活方式。

8) Kabuki Brushes

藝妓化妝刷

A lot of girls like to use powder puffs, thanks to their size and portability, but they're breeding grounds for bacteria unless cleaned properly and thoroughly! Whether you use pressed or loose, translucent or shaded face powder, get rid of the foam or fabric puff that comes with it and upgrade to this fluffy, fabulous finishing brush, named after the traditional Japanese theatre, which uses heavy makeup. Dip your brush in loose powder or stroke it across the pressed compact, then tap it or blow on it to get rid of the excess. Apply the powder in circular motions, and you will get a finish of airbrushed flawlessness. Plus, it's small enough to tuck in your handbag still.

由于粉撲體積小、攜帶方便,許多女孩都喜歡,但如果清洗不恰當(dāng)或不徹底,它們就成了細(xì)菌的滋生地!無論你使用壓縮粉撲還是散粉,隱形粉底抑或著色粉底,都可以升級(jí)到這款毛茸茸的優(yōu)秀定妝刷,用它除去粉撲帶來的泡沫或碎屑。它以傳統(tǒng)日本歌劇命名,因?yàn)樗嚰艘軡獾膴y。先將刷子插入散粉,或者在壓縮粉表面蘸幾下,然后輕輕拍打或吹口氣,去掉多余的粉。敷粉時(shí)兩手畫圓,這樣就會(huì)達(dá)到完美的效果。另外,它足夠小,能夠塞在你的手包里。
