![]() Whether you are interested in makeup and cosmetics or just want to learn how to say different types of makeup in Chinese, then this the perfect guide for you. Makeup in Chinese is 化妆 (huàzhuāng) and you add 品 (pǐn) at the end for cosmetics 化妆品 (huàzhuāngpǐn). Before getting to the makeup vocab in Chinese, it would be helpful to get familiar with the Chinese for different facial features: Face – 脸 liǎn Forehead – 额头 é’tóu Eyebrows – 眉毛 méimáo Eye – 眼睛 yǎnjīng Eyelashes – 睫毛 jiémáo Nose – 鼻子 bízi Cheek – 脸颊 liǎnjiá Lips – 唇 chún Chin – 下巴 xiàba Foundation: Firstly, let’s have a look at foundation in Chinese. Anyone familiar with makeup knows that there are lots of different types of foundation so let’s see how they are translated in Chinese. Foundation – 粉底 (fěndǐ), 粉 means “powder” and 底 means “base” to literally make “powder base”. You’ll see that 粉 is used quite a lot in Chinese words for makeup. Liquid foundation – 液狀粉底 (yè zhuàng fěndǐ) or 粉底液 (fěndǐ yè), 液means “liquid” and 狀 means “form” together making “liquid form”. Mineral foundation – 矿物粉底 (kuàngwù fěndǐ), or 矿物狀粉底 (kuàngwù zhuàng fěndǐ), 矿物 means “mineral”, and 狀 can also be added, but isn’t essential. Cream foundation – 膏狀粉底 (gāo zhuàng fěndǐ) or 粉底霜 (fěndǐ shuāng) 膏 and 霜 both mean cream. Powder foundation- 粉狀粉底 (fěn zhuàng fěndǐ), which is then split into two different categories: Pressed powder – 粉饼 (fěn bǐng), 饼 means “cake”, so together this literally means “powder cake”. Loose powder – 散粉 (sǎn fěn) or 蜜粉(mì fěn), 散 means “to break up” and 蜜 means honey. #Our teachers # More than 10 years teaching experience Master Degree Certificate for teaching chinese as a foreign language ![]() # About us # Founded in 2007 Chinese training center 200+ Chinese teachers 5000+ students # Contact us# Name:fiona Phone number:021-52287809,13918358891 E-mail:info@mandarinmorning.com www.mandarinmorning.com If you are interested to join Mandarin Morning school or want more details about our services, scan the following QR code. ☟ ![]() ![]() Chinese training center 10 years+ ,200 teachers ,more 10000 students,200+companies ![]() |
