Men, be warned! That lipstick you love on your girlfriend or wife may be a health risk.
男士们，要小心了！你女友或妻子涂的那款深得你心的口红也许存在健康隐患！
The coetics most women put on each morning are really too old to be used, according to an expert at the College of Optometrists in London. A five-year-old mascara or lipstick may not ell(too)bad, but it will probably be full of bacteria.
据伦敦的英国视光师学院的一位专家称，大多数女性每天早餐涂抹的化妆品其实都放得太久，不宜于使用了。放了5年的睫毛膏或口红或许闻起来味道还不算坏，但上面可能布满了细菌。
Dr.Susan Blakeney, an adviser to the college, told The Guardian, "The make-up you use should be as fresh as the food you consume. But women keep their make-up for many years, not to mention sharing it with friends."
苏珊·布莱克尼博士是该学院的顾问，她告诉《卫报》说：“你用的化妆品应该与你吃的食物一样新鲜。但很多女性都把自己的化妆品放很多年，更别提还会跟朋友共用了。”
If you're not sure wether your coetics are safe, keep in mind what expert say: most such products can be used for a maximum of 18 months.
如果你对自己所用化妆品的安全性没把握的话，请谨记专家们的建议：大部分这类产品都最多只能使用18个月。
