My Beauty Regimen

我的養(yǎng)顏之道

Every morning: In my bathroom cabinet you will find facial cleanser to cleanse my skin every morning and night together with a facial toner. In the mornings, I wash my face using the cleanser and rinse it off with a flannel or face cloth. I then wipe my face with the toner using a cotton pad. I use a day moisturiser with SPF30. Sometimes, if I am not too lazy, I will use an eye cream and apply small dots around the eye area and gently rub the cream in. Any help to smooth out those wrinkles are always welcome!! My face is now ready to have make up applied to it.

每天早晨：我的衛(wèi)生間柜子里有每天早晚洗臉用的洗面奶，和爽膚水。早上，我先用洗面奶洗臉，再用絨布毛巾或方巾洗凈。之后取一塊化妝棉涂上爽膚水。每天我都會涂上防曬指數(shù)SPF30的保濕面霜。沒偷懶的時候我會使用眼霜，用手將眼霜輕點在眼周，輕輕摩擦幫助面霜吸收。任何對撫平皺紋有幫助的程序總是受歡迎的！現(xiàn)在，我已經(jīng)準備好上妝了。

Every night: I use baby oil to remove my eye make up at night. I used to buy eye make-up remover but found that baby oil is just as good and cheaper. I dab my cotton pad in the oil and gently wipe my eyes. I then apply my facial cleanser using my fingers, massage my face and rinse off all the day’s dirt and make-up using my flannel. After I have wiped my face with the toner, I apply my night cream which will nourish and repair my skin overnight and once again if I can be bothered, I will apply the eye cream. Then it’s bed time!

每天晚上：我用嬰兒油卸眼妝。以前我會用專門的眼部卸妝油，但是嬰兒油一樣好用而且更便宜。將化妝棉蘸上油，輕輕地擦拭眼部即可。之后使用洗面奶，用手指按摩臉部，再用毛巾洗凈一天的灰塵和臉上的化妝品。涂過爽膚水之后，我會使用晚霜，讓皮膚在夜間得到營養(yǎng)并修復。當然如果我不嫌麻煩的話會使用眼霜的。之后就可以睡覺啦！

Every week: I try to remember to do this every week for I know that I should exfoliate my skin once a week with a good facial scrub. Exfoliation is very good to remove dead skin and to rejuvenate our complexion. There are different products that you can use. I personally prefer using a product with granules. As the granules rub against my skin I feel the dirt coming off!

每周：每周我都會用磨砂膏給皮膚去角質，因為這是必須的。去角質可以有效地去除死皮，恢復健康的膚色。有很多產(chǎn)品都可以去角質。我個人比較喜歡有顆粒的，當顆粒在臉上摩擦時，我覺得臟東西都被洗掉了！

When I have the time and there is a good radio programme on I might use a facial mask. The mask allows for deep cleansing of the skin. I apply it with my fingers, leave it on for 20 minutes and then rinse it off thoroughly. It’s very important to apply the mask on already cleansed skin.

空余時間有好的之聲節(jié)目時，我會敷面膜。面膜可以深層清潔。用手指將面膜涂在臉上，停留20分鐘再完全洗凈。記住，一定要在洗臉之后再敷面膜。

Occasionally: I would have a facial once a month at my beauty salon. The facial is a wonderful way of thoroughly cleansing your skin. I used to love my monthly sessions as it was a real luxury to lie for an hour and a half while someone pampered you.

偶爾：每個月我會去美容院做一次美容。這是清潔皮膚的好方法。我一直很享受每月一次的美容過程，躺上一個半小時，還有人為你服務可真夠奢侈的。

My Make Up

我的妝容

Now for the make-up. I don’t use a lot of make up. It is certainly a lot less than when I was younger. I remember that I used to “cake on” the make-up when I was a teenager. It was a must to experiment with every colour. When I look back at some photos now, I scare myself.

現(xiàn)在談到化妝。我的化妝品不多。年輕的時候化得就更少了。我記得自己還是個小女生的時候，把化妝品像抹奶油一樣涂在臉上，那時候必須要什么顏色都試驗一下。當我回看那時的照片時，常常會被自己嚇到。

Face: I used to wear foundation but not anymore. Now I use a bronzer to give myself that suntanned look. I use a big make-up brush to apply the bronzer all over my face, neck and decollete. Some women also use a concealer or primer to hide spots and flaws or blemishes of the skin.

臉：之前我會抹粉底，但現(xiàn)在不了?，F(xiàn)在我用美黑膏，讓自己擁有小麥膚色。我用化妝刷將美黑膏刷在臉、脖子和前胸上。一些女性會使用遮瑕膏或者妝前液將臉上的斑點或瑕疵遮住。

Eyes: After that I apply a light eye shadow with a small brush on my eyelids. I use a pencil eyeliner (rather than a liquid eyeliner) and apply it below my eye. Sometimes I will apply it above the eye but only if I want to create a dramatic effect (which is rare). I then use mascara.

眼睛：之后我會用小刷子在眼瞼上刷一層淡色眼影。用眼線筆（而不是眼線液）在眼睛下面畫上眼線。只有想要眼妝夸張一點的時候，我才會在眼睛上面也畫上眼線。后涂上睫毛膏。

There are so many types of mascara ranging from volumising, lash defining, waterproof, lengthening and curling to name but a few. I use a lengthening and curling mascara.I don’t have long eyelashes so I need all the help I can get with mascara. Some women use eyelash curlers to enhance their eyelashes. I’ve never used them.

睫毛膏種類繁多，有豐盈、定型、防水、加長、卷翹等等功效的。我用的是加長和卷翹效果的。我的睫毛不長，所以需要睫毛膏的幫助。有些女性會用睫毛夾讓睫毛更卷翹，但我從沒用過。

Lips: Finally I deal with the lips. I like to use a lipliner to give my lips definition. I know that the older I get the more definition my lips need! After that, I will apply lipstick or lipgloss depending on what mood I am in. I like to use neutral shades of colour. I like lipgloss in the summer and lipstick in the winter. I sometimes have to use a lip balm to protect my lips from the cold as they can get chapped. A lot of lipsticks have a protective lip balm in them.

唇部：終于講到唇部了。我喜歡用唇線筆將唇部輪廓勾勒出來。我知道年紀越大我就越需要使用唇線筆。至于使用口紅還是唇彩則要看我的心情了。我比較喜歡中性一點的顏色。夏天喜歡用唇彩，冬天用口紅。有時候我會涂潤唇膏保護我的雙唇，防止皸裂。很多口紅都有護唇膏成分。
