cosmetics fridge 化妆冰箱
Fridges, long the preserve of the kitchen, are popping up in the bathroom. Designed in bijoux sizes of four-to-nine litres, and with temperatures ranging from 8C-12C, the cosmetics fridge is the beauty world's equivalent of the jewellery box, helping to store your most precious products.
长久以来作为厨房专属物的冰箱,如今已大量“进驻”浴室。设计成首饰盒大小(4-9升)、温度8-12度的化妆冰箱就好比美容界的首饰盒,里面装着自己最心爱的化妆品。
Miniature make-up coolers in Hello Kitty styles are already a big hit in South Korea, where the concept was developed, and you can get your own cowhide, cloud or polka-dot version shipped here through Ebay.
凯蒂猫风格的微型化妆冰箱如今在原创地韩国颇为风靡,消费者可以通过Ebay网购牛皮、云彩或是圆点花样等式样。
But while they may be easily justifiable in sweltering cities such as Seoul (melted make-up is no laughing matter, after all), their arrival in more temperate London signifies a new chapter in luxury fixtures and fittings.
尽管在首尔这样的闷热型城市,它们大行其道可谓“师出有名”(毕竟化妆品融化可不是闹着玩的事),但在气候较为温和的伦敦,它们的流行标志着奢侈品格局掀开了新的篇章。
