  Dialogue 1
  Mark: Jingjing, you're looking pretty healthy these days.

  Jingjing: I'm glad you noticed. I've been trying to take good care of myself.
  京晶:很开心你注意到了。我一直在保养自己。
  Mark: Do you use many cosmetics7?
  马克:你用很多化妆品吗?
  Jingjing: You know, I used to spend lots of money on every kind of product. Now I've got some products I trust, without a huge total cost.
  京晶:那个,我过去常在每一种产品上都花很多钱。现在,我已经找到了一些我信赖的产品,总体花费减少了。
  Mark: It takes a while to find what works for you.
  马克:找到什么适合你需要且花一些时间呢。
  Jingjing: You said it. It might take a dozen expensive mistakes before you find the right set of products for yourself.
  京晶:说的对。在你找到正确的系列产品之前可能需要一些昂贵的试错。
  Mark: Yeah, each person's skin and hair is different.
  马克:是的,每个人的肤质和发质都是不一样的。
  Jingjing: I used to think the most famous brands were the best, you know like Clinique, or even Chanel.
  京晶:我过去认为最著名的牌子就是最好的,你知道像倩碧或者香奈儿。
  Mark: Well, they're famous for a reason. The more money you spend, the better the product you get.
  马克:嗯,他们有名也是有原因的。多花钱就能买到更好的产品。
  Jingjing: Yeah, but more of your money might be going to better advertisements and marketing8.
  京晶:是的,但是你大部分花费的钱可能都花在了更好的广告和营销上。
  Mark: Ha ha, that figures. Also, one price point in one brand might not mean the same level of quality in another brand.
  马克:哈哈,那就说明问题了。一个品牌的价格点可能并不意味着匹配另一个品牌的质量。
  Jingjing: I've noticed. Anyway, with some products, you don't have to use so much each time.
  京晶:我注意到了。对了,对有些产品来说,你每次不用使用太多。
  Mark: Wow, it sounds like you have to do a lot of experimenting before you can settle on the right collection of cosmetics.
  马克:哇哦,听上去你在选定适合的化妆品之前真是做了不少实验呢。
  Jingjing: Yeah. Next time we talk, I'll tell you some things I found out.
  京晶:没错。下次我们聊天时,我再告诉你我都发现了什么。
  New words: 习语短语

  Dialogue 2
  The next day
  第二天
  Jingjing: Good to see you again, Mark. Wanna hear more about cosmetics?
  京晶:很高兴又见到你了马克,想听更多关于化妆品的东西吗?
  Mark: Sure. I think it's an interesting topic.
  马克:当然。我相信这是个有趣的话题。
  Jingjing: Well, I found I could get a better value from brands sold directly through shops. Especially for skin care, it was better to get a set of products from a speciality shop than a department store.
  京晶:我发现直接在品牌店里售卖的化妆品性价比更高。尤其是护肤品,从专营店里买的比百货店里买的要好。
  Mark: You mean house brands?
  马克:你是指公司自己出的品牌?
  Jingjing: Yeah, sort of. It's important not to mix brands too much. And, while some products get used up pretty quickly, you can keep the total costs down by going directly to a brand shop.
  京晶:对,差不多吧。不把品牌混在一起很重要。同时,有些产品用得特别快,直接去品牌店购买能够让你降低总体花费。
  Mark: Do you buy anything online?
  马克:你网购吗?
  Jingjing: Sometimes, if there's a special deal. Also, I find that switching shampoos every few months is a good idea. So I rotate brands on hair care products.
  京晶:有时候吧,如果有特价。而且,我发现每几个月就换种香波用是个好主意。所以,洗护发用品我是来回换。
  Mark: Yeah, I know at least it's good to use high-quality shampoo, conditioner and soap.
  马克:是的,我知道至少用高质量的洗发水、护发素和香皂是很好的。
  Jingjing: No doubt. Why would someone pay hundreds of yuan for moisturiser when their cheap soap is drying out their skin in the first place?
  京晶:毫无疑问。为什么有的人愿意花几百块买润肤水,当他们的皮肤已经在一开始被廉价的香皂弄干燥了。
  Mark: Ha ha. What about make-up?
  马克:哈哈,那化妆品呢?
  Jingjing: Well, I seldom use it. So, while I won't settle for cheap make-up and lipstick10, I don't have to spend that much in a year.
  京晶:嗯,我很少用。我不会将就用便宜的彩妆和唇膏,我每年在这方面也不需要花那么多钱。
  Mark: That makes sense. It's good to have a full set of everything, rather than having to run out to the store.
  马克:有道理。有个全套也很好,比不得不跑去商店买好.
  Jingjing: Definitely. And now it's fun to try a new product once in a while—a much more expensive one, or one that a friend recommended.
  京晶:那肯定。现在时不常尝试下新品也很好玩,一款价格不菲的,或者朋友推荐的。
  Mark: That does sound like fun. Thanks for telling me all about it.
  马克:听着确实有意思。谢谢你告诉我这些。
