  • Aries, as the first and fieriest1 sign of the Zodiac, prefers to set the trends, not follow them. If you're an Aries, depending on your generation, you were probably the first to iron your hair straight or wear glitter on your cheeks or even get that crazy Brazilian bikini wax. You like perfumes with florid, heady undertones, and you should call attention to your piercing eyes with bold shadow choices and well-groomed brows.

    白羊:作为黄道带中的第一个也是最富激情的星座,羊儿宁愿由自己来引领美容潮流,而不愿跟风从众。白羊座通常是第一个把头发烫直或是将脸蛋弄得闪闪发亮的人。即便是最新潮的巴西风情,羊儿也乐于尝试。你喜爱色彩绚丽的香水。粗线条的眼影与神采奕奕的眉毛经常让你吸引不少的目光。

    Taurus, with your steady gaze and flawless complexion2, should grow out your natural curls rather than force them straight, or keep your nails trimmed short if you just know long and sexy won't work for you. You adore the small, sensual pleasures of beauty -- sensual fabrics3, natural, revitalizing skin creams and perfume with a woodsy, balsamic scent4. You prefer your hair flowing naturally over your shoulder or a loose tendril falling across your forehead. It's through these tiny but generous gestures of understated femininity that you as a Taurus assert your beauty.

    金牛:目光坚定、面容姣好的牛儿应该保留自然的卷发而不要强迫将其拉直。指甲尽量修整地短些。你很钟意天然且新生产的护肤品,香水也会选择芬芳型的。尽量让头发自然垂下,及肩的秀发更能将你的女性魅力淋漓尽致地展现出来。

    As a Gemini, you may get that tired, old split-personality tag -- but you're not internally conflicted, Gemini, you're just restless and very often brilliant! This Mutable Air Sign, blessed with all the wit and charm you could need to make it through life on guile5 alone, does not much interest itself with the day-to-day trappings of a beauty routine. It's your stimulating6 mind, your expressive7 hands and that ever-talkative mouth of yours that garner8 all of the affectionate attention -- people can't help but look at your lovely hands as you gesticulate and make yet another insightful comment. Even though you may chew your nails down to the quick in one of your frequent fits of nervous energy, you keep any flaws hidden well with vibrant9 nail colors and frequent manicures.

    双子:你可能都对自己的人格分裂感到厌倦了,不过你仍很不安份,经常会有很出位的表现。善变的双子座不喜欢惯例性的美容方法,你偏爱在手上做文章,而且你极力用手势与人交流,纤纤细手怎能不被人注意呢。富于变化的绚丽色彩和不断番新的造型为你的玉手加分不少哦。

    As a Cancer, a Cardinal10 Water Sign, you love to care for the downtrodden and very often your own needs are overlooked. Your beauty routine, then, is likely minimal11 -- if anything. Lucky for you, Cancers have expressive eyes and cheekbones to die for! While your sparkling, emotive eyes, chiseled13 bone structure and womanly proportions make you the picture of the feminine urge to nurture14, there's more to you than meets the eye!

    巨蟹:水相星座的蟹子经常忽略自己的真正需求。幸运的是,你那会说话的眼睛和漂亮的颧骨不知迷倒了多少人。只要你眨眨眼睛,露出极富线条感的面颊,那就是一幅精致的画作,再也找不到比你更好地体现女性柔媚气质的人选了。

    As a Leo, you are confidence in a beautiful bottle, self-assuredness in sleek15,concentrated form. And it is glorious -- your hair, that is. Just like the Lion that symbolizes16 your sign, your mane is your crowning achievement, so to speak, and you let it speak for you when you don't know what else to say. Moving down from there, the world sees your eyes, large and full of life and energy -- and further down from that, the world probably sees your sexy shoulders, another area of Leo pride.

    狮子:你一直对自己的容貌充满自信。你最在意的就是自己的“鬃毛”了,它是你王者气质的象征,可以说,在你不知道向他人展示自己哪里时,那就亮出你的秀发吧。光泽亮丽的及肩秀发是身为狮子座的你最大的骄傲。

    It's this Mutable Earth Sign's natural dedication17 to the small details that keeps you looking so stunning18. Your nails are to die for, and your skin is blemish-free. You pride yourself on keeping up appearances, and delight in name-brand cosmetics20 that withstand the test of time and trends. You prefer light, feminine scents21 and soft, muted earth tones. Your beauty comes from your dedication and reverence22 of perfection and of beauty itself, as well as your pure-minded yet realistic attitude toward life.

    连细节都不放过的处女座当然是美容高手了。修剪整洁的指甲和一尘不染的皮肤是你致胜的法宝。名牌化妆品也是你保持美丽的武器。你的美丽来自于自身尽善尽美的要求和对生活完美而又不失现实的态度。

    Libras, you certainly know how to please, don't you? You know that the world wants beauty, and you always deliver. Feminine but strong, charming but never coy, you have a knack23 for looking fabulous24 with a minimum of effort. Perhaps it's the inherently captivating quality of this Cardinal Air Sign, or maybe it's the way you yearn25 for harmony at all costs. Maybe it's the Libran need for companionship that influences you to always look your best.

    天秤:秤子当然知道怎样取悦他人了。你清楚地知道这个世界需要美丽,而你也一直是朝这个方向努力的。娇柔不失干练、迷人又不做作正是你保持美丽的心得。一切要求和谐统一的秤子在很多人眼中也是美丽的。

    You delight in disguise and in dramatic makeovers; wigs26 and false eyelashes are some of the tools of your cosmetic19 trade. The power of your beauty lies within this cunning; all of your expressions of beauty possess a hidden, deeper meaning, a subtext of desire, an ulterior motive12. You are at your most beautiful when you channel your sly charm to energize27 those around you, letting the world in on the biggest Scorpio secret of all.

    天蝎:你喜欢用一些装饰物来展现自己的美丽。假发和假睫毛是你化妆时惯用的道具。你的美丽在于你巧妙的修饰。只要你善用这些装饰,就会是你最美丽的时刻。

    When it comes to your beauty routine, Sagittarius, you travel light, ready for the next adventure. Cosmetics that don't fit in your backpack, fannypack or coat pocket just get left behind; all you really need is sunscreen and lip balm to protect you from the elements and perhaps a personalized essential oil to keep you fresh during your travels.Your beauty comes from your spontaneous, open mind, your endless ideas and thirst for adventure, and your intelligent sense of humor.

    射手:喜欢旅游、热爱探险的射手座想把一大堆的化妆品全部塞进背包里当然不合适了。你真正需要的是防晒霜和润唇霜,它们可以保证你的行程畅通无阻。你的美丽实际上来自于你乐观的个性、源源不断的新念头、执着的探险精神和充满智慧的幽默感。

    You've always been told that you're a hard-working go-getter, Capricorn, that the bedroom and, for that matter, the powder room are secondary to the boardroom in your determined28 climb to the top. Your elegance29 also shows in the confident and purposeful way you carry yourself. Pull your hair up into a sleek ponytail or keep it short -- whatever it takes to show off that beautiful neck. Warm, earthy scents suit you, as do dark, rich colors like plum, burgundy and red. Your beauty comes from your resourcefulness and your ambition toward high-quality living.

    工作至上的摩羯人总是把美容列于次要的位置。你通常以有目的性的手段展示自己的优雅。清爽的马尾或是利索的短发都能将你漂亮的美脖展现在众人面前。桃红、葡萄红或大红都很适合你。你的美丽来自于自己的足智多谋和追求高品质生活的野心。

    As an Aquarius, although you have the utmost respect for yourself, you're lacking in the self-esteem department at times. You're always worrying that you don't look good enough or that you're not feminine enough. No need to worry, Water Bearer, you look stunning no matter what you do. Your beauty comes from your ability to accept yourself and make the best of the gifts you've been given. You set your own beauty standards, and this independence raises your beauty to a transcendent level.

    水瓶:尽管你对自己充满自信,但有时还是缺少了一点自负。你一直担心自己不够漂亮,女人味不够足。根本没必要担心,瓶子,无论你做什么,你看上去都很漂亮。你的美丽来自你的才干和善于充分利用已有的天赋。你需要做的只是降低自己的审美标准,自信独立就能提升你的美貌,让你与众不同。

    As a Pisces, When it comes to physical beauty, you are unconventional, a risk-taker motivated by subconscious30 visions and ethereal longings31. Not one to follow trends, you strike out on your own in defense32 of your independent spirit. You loathe33 conformity34, but despite your rebellion, people can't help but be attracted to you! Lily-tinged scents keep you in a romantic mood. Your beauty comes from your open heart, your belief in the goodness of others, your sympathetic nature and the way you never shy away from saying how you feel.

    浪漫爱幻想的鱼儿欣赏的也是非传统的美。没有人追求的东西,反而得到你的青睐。你讨厌和大家一样,尽管如此叛逆,大家还是会为你的魅力折服。淡淡的百合香很衬你的气质。你的美丽来自你开阔的视野、善良仁慈的心和从不羞于表达自己的处世方法。
