【Makeup的正确用法 】

Makeup (化妆 / 化妆品)是名词,而非动词。想表达化妆这个动作,需加上put on / do / wear / apply 这样的动词。

X I makeup. / I makeup my face.

✔ I takes me 10 minutes to do my makeup.我花了10分钟来化妆。

✔ I wear makeup because it makes me feel more confident.我化妆是因为它能让我感觉更自信。

【化妆的理由】

1. 遮盖瑕疵

Some people want to hide certain parts of their skin, like scars or acne. Makeup that helps with this will conceal or cover (up) these imperfections or flaws. 有些人想隐藏皮肤上的伤疤或者粉刺,化妆就可以帮助遮盖这些缺陷了。

·scar - 伤疤

·acne - 粉刺

·conceal / cover(up) - 遮盖

2. 显气色

当一个人气色欠佳、脸色苍白的时候,可以用washed out来形容。Lipstick and blush are popular fixes for this. They can give you a healthy glow, which means that you look well-rested and youthful. 口红和腮红无疑就是快速解决面色苍白的法宝了,它们能让你瞬间容光焕发,看起来气色好,显得年轻。

4. 在意肤质紧致度

其实,自然的状态最好。适当的修饰目的是为了锦上添花,但是修饰过头了,The makeup is caked on. 这是句很负面的评价,千万要慎用哦。
