夏天到了,如何保護好自己的皮膚?
聽聽專家的建議,
學習一下防曬霜、防曬衣、陽傘、遮陽棚等英語詞彙吧。
夏季防曬十大注意事項:
1. Use sunscreenwith a Sun Protection Factor (SPF) of at least 15. Make sure it is water-resistant and reapply every two hours, especially after swimming or sweating.
使用防曬係數(SPF)至少為15的防曬霜。確保是防水的,每兩小時重新塗一次,尤其是遊過泳或出汗了後。
2. Apply sunscreen 30 minutes before going outside so your skin has time to absorb it.
在出門前30分鐘塗上防曬霜,這樣你的皮膚有時間吸收。
3. Be generous in application of sunscreen. An ounce of sunscreen should cover the face, neck, arms and legs of the average adult.
擦防曬霜不要節約。一盎司的防曬霜應能覆蓋普通成年人的臉、脖子、胳膊和腿。
4. Wear protective clothing, like hats, sunglasses, long-sleeved shirts and pants
穿有防護作用的服裝,如帽子、太陽鏡、長袖襯衫和長褲。
5. Seek shade when possible, especially during the hours of 10:00 am to 4:00 pm when the sun's rays are strongest.
儘可能地尋找陰涼處,特別是在上午10:00到下午4:00太陽光最強的時候。
6. Avoid tanning bedsas ultraviolet light can cause skin cancer and wrinkling. Use a self-tanning product but use sunscreen with it.
避免日光浴床(曬日光浴),紫外線會導致皮膚癌和皺紋。使用仿曬產品,但使用防曬霜。
7. Protect children by reapplying sunscreen often with an SPF of at least 15, having them play in the shade and wear protective clothing.
通過重新塗抹防曬霜來保護兒童,防曬霜的防曬係數至少為15,讓他們在陰涼處玩耍並穿能防護的服裝。
8. Babies under the age of 6 months should never be in direct sunlight and should always wear a hat and clothing that protects them from UV rays.
6個月以下的嬰兒不應在陽光直射下,應始終戴上帽子和衣服,以保護他們,免受紫外線的傷害。
9. Adults should perform regular self-exams. It is an easy way to detect abnormalities
成年人應該定期進行自我檢查。這是一種檢測皮膚異變的簡單方法。
10. Talk to your dermatologist and have a complete body scan once a year.
諮詢皮膚科醫生,每年做一次全身掃描。
嗯,怎麼沒有中國人的防曬利器——防曬衣、遮陽傘?
別急!
UPF clothesare "a lazy person's sunscreen". UPF clothing is made with special fabric that offers the same type of UV-fighting protection as a sunscreen.
防曬衣是「懶人的防曬霜」。 防曬衣由特殊的織物製成,提供與防曬霜相同的防紫外線保護。
遮陽傘是UPF umbrella或者sunproof umbrella嗎?
也沒錯,其實我們為什麼不記住一個小清新又文藝的說法:parasol呢?
parasol就是比一般雨傘小巧精緻的陽傘,18,19世紀時女士出門必備的時尚搭配。
最後別忘了sunshade,它就是海灘上,小店們口的大遮陽傘;遮陽篷了,也指用來夾在普通眼鏡上的太陽鏡,墨鏡。
再把這些詞彙,整理一下,方便大家學習:
sunscreen 防曬霜
Sun Protection Factor (SPF) 防曬係數(SPF)
sunglasses 太陽鏡
ultraviolet light (UV rays) 紫外線
UPF clothes 防曬衣
parasol 遮陽傘
sunshade 大遮陽傘;遮陽篷,用來夾在普通眼鏡上的太陽鏡,墨鏡。
