peer agreement (net): +1吸干，以使第一层口红固定 Explanation: Misconception No 3: The colour won't last Assuming lips are prepped in advance, begin by applying a lip base to enhance lipstick wear and banish colour bleeding. Lip liner is a must. If you don't have the matching liner, opt for a neutral shade. Experts always seem to recommend applying lip liner first, but novices know that leads to chalky, overdrawn lip lines. I recommend applying one coat of lipstick after the base, and then blotting lips. Next, apply lip liner and then reapply lipstick. If the change from sparkly lips to matte is too much for you, add some shine by dotting a touch of eye shadow in gold or silver to the centre of your bottom lip to add shimmer.

吸干（多余油光）并为第一层涂抹的口红定型 Explanation: Use a tissue to blot and fix the first application of lipstick by brushing a layer of powder over the tissue powder 应该是指吸油粉（因为口红油质太浓，涂抹后需要吸油粉滤去多余的油光），application 应该是“涂抹，敷”的意思。定型（或：定妆）是指第一个化妆步骤的最后效果，是化妆中十分常用的词。 译：在吸油纸上刷一层吸油粉，然后使用吸油纸吸干并为第一层涂抹的口红定型。 注意：如果上下文没有明确指出tissue是手巾的话，我认为此处指的是吸油纸。 |
