牛油果成爲美麗新寵的四大理由
That's right kids, after argan oil and coconut oil have taken the beauty industry by storm, avocado oil is about to become the "It" ingredient of the moment. And while you can expect to see it pop up in more and more products, the concept of using it on skin and hair is nothing new. In ancient times, Aztecs used avocado oil as a soothing moisturizer to protect their skin from punishing environmental conditions like intense sun and brutal wind.
沒錯，在摩洛哥堅果油和椰子油席捲美容業之後，現在美容業的時尚新寵就是牛油果油。雖然你希望牛油果油出現在越來越多產品中，但是在皮膚和頭髮上塗抹牛油果油並不是一件新鮮事兒。古時候，阿茲特克人就將牛油果油當作舒緩保溼霜使用，以保護皮膚不受烈日和寒風等惡劣環境的侵襲。
So, are you ready to get in on this wonder fruit (beyond slathering it on toast, that is)? Here are four ways you can use avocado oil to look and feel amazing from hair to heels.
所以，準備好了解這一神奇之果了嗎（除了把它塗抹在麪包上）？下列四種使用牛油果油的方法，能讓你從頭到腳煥然一新。
1. As makeup remover: "Avocado oil is a gentle way to remove makeup," says Dr. Rossi. "The soluble lipids dissolve dirt and other oils without stripping." Pour a bit of avocado oil (like Now Avocado Oil) onto a cotton pad and swipe it over your face. Follow with your favorite cleanser.
1. 用於卸妝：“用牛油果油卸妝是比較舒緩的一種方式，”羅西博士說道。“這種可溶性溶液能有效的清潔肌膚，而且用完不會覺得緊繃。”在化妝棉上倒一點牛油果油（比如Now Avocado Oil這一品牌），然後輕輕擦拭臉部。接下來就可以用你最愛的清潔產品了。
2. As a hair hydrator: After a season spent at the pool, the beach, or on a rooftop, your hair could probably use a little rehab. Pamper it in the shower with moisturizing formulas like Garnier Whole Blends Nourishing Shampoo and Conditioner with Avocado and Shea Butter Extracts. For a more intense hit of hydration, try Garnier Whole Blends Nourishing Mask with Avocado Oil and Shea Butter Extracts. This trio gives thirsty strands an instant boost and brings back bounce.
2. 用作頭髮保溼精華：這個夏天，你們呆過游泳池、去過沙灘、爬過屋頂，你們的頭髮可能需要做點修復了。先用淋浴打溼頭髮，然後在頭髮上先後抹上牛油果和牛油樹脂提取物保溼卡尼爾全混合滋養洗髮水和護髮素。想要更加保溼，那就試試牛油果和牛油樹脂提取物卡尼爾全混合滋養髮膜吧。這三重護養能讓你乾燥的頭髮立馬變得彈性有光澤。
3. As a foot softener: To prep your heels for fall's big mule trend, try this overnight treatment: Slough your feet in the shower with a pumice stone. When you get out, apply a rich cream like Captain Blankenship Avocado & Peppermint Hand, Cuticle & Foot Balm while your skin is still damp. Slip on a pair of socks and leave them on while you sleep. In the morning, wave those cracks goodbye.
3. 用於使腳柔軟：爲了讓你的腳能夠穿上今秋流行的Mule女鞋，那就試試這一睡眠治療吧：淋浴時用磨腳石磨掉腳上的死皮。淋浴完出來後，趁着腳還沒幹，抹上一層厚厚的Captain Blankenship牌牛油果薄荷手霜和腳霜。然後穿上襪子睡一覺。早上醒來就可以跟腳後跟裂痕說拜拜！
4. As an eye brightener: Treat the sensitive skin under your eyes with a hydrating moisturizer like Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado. Chockful of natural fats, avocado oil is said to be the most moisturizing of any fruit oil.
4. 用作眼部光亮煥顏：用保溼的科顏氏牛油果眼霜塗抹眼部下方的敏感肌膚。牛油果油富含天然脂肪，被稱作最保溼的水果油。
