Watch out, ladies! Your boyfriend or husband might be helping himself to your makeup. More and more men these days are using cosmetics to help them look good. Some of the products they use are meant to give their facial skin a good color or to conceal problems like acne, wrinkles, or dark circles under their eyes. Other products are supposed to help keep their skin young and healthy.
This buying trend is making men’s cosmetics a growing industry. The businesses prefer to call their products cosmetics because makeup still sounds like it is just for women. Before long, men’s cosmetics may become totally mainstream. What’s next? Short skirts for men?

 

注意了,各位女士!妳們的男友或先生可能會偷偷把妳們的化妝品拿去用。如今有越來越多的男人會擦化妝品來讓自己看起來更迷人。他們所使用的某些產品是為了讓他們的臉部肌膚擁有好氣色,或是用來掩蓋像面皰、皺紋或黑眼圈等問題。其它產品則可以讓他們的肌膚保持年輕健康。
這股消費風潮讓男性化妝品成為日益成長的產業。這個行業偏好稱呼自己的產品為cosmetics,因為makeup這個字聽起來仍像是給女性使用的化妝品。不久之後,男性的化妝品也許會完全變成主流。下一股風潮會是什麼?給男人穿的短裙嗎?
