Dialogue: (對話)

 

Hope:

Hey, Joey, have you got a hand cream that I can use?

Joey:

Hand cream? Yes, here you are.

Hope:

Thanks. Every winter, I always experience the same problem that

my skin gets extremely dry and sensitive.

Joey:

Same here. That’s why I always prepare a tube of hand cream to apply at any time.

Hope:

And for some reasons, I got lots of zits on my face recently.

Joey:

Zits? 面皰嗎?

Hope:

Yes, they are also called pimples.

Joey:

Pimples.

Hope:

For a formal expression, we can say skin blemishes.

Joey:

Skin blemishes.

Hope:

Freckles, scars, zits are all some skin blemishes.

Joey:

Freckles. I have some freckles on my cheeks because

I always walk in the sun without having a hat on.

Hope:

That’s the reason. But it is perhaps because you have got bright skin.

Maybe you should try wearing some sunblock.

Joey:

Sunblock?

Hope:

Yes. You can try some sunblock with anti-UVA function.

Joey:

Anti-UVA? 抗紫外線嗎?

Hope:

Yes. Anti-Ultraviolet A

Joey:

By the way, Hope, I always feel super itchy on my leg skin, especially in winter.

Hope:

Hmm… I have the same problems, too.

Joey:

So, what do you do with it?

Hope:

Well, I try to apply some body lotion or moisturizer to help

it keep moisturized after shower every day.

Joey:

Moisturizer? 保濕霜? 

Hope:

Yes. I think you’ll need to apply some of these products, too.

Joey:

Indeed!
