In this lesson, we will learn phrases you may use to talk about your skin and related problems.

The girl sitting 3 rows away is so pretty. Her skin looks baby smooth.

Yeah. She really is pretty. Her skin is quite clear and without blemishes.

I wish I had such a smooth skin. More glow and less shine.

You do have a lovely face, Becky. You just don't take care of yourself.

What do you mean I don't take care of myself? I exercise, have healthy eating habits, and sleep well.

I know you have a healthy lifestyle. But, your skin needs a lot more than that.

Really? Like what?

There are many natural home remedies to help manage oily skin and acne flare-ups.

Your skin needs a lot of pampering, especially your face.

Hmm... I definitely have to start taking care of my skin.

Oh Jack. What's happened to your face?

Nothing much. I cut myself while shaving this morning.

The cut looks like a heat rash.

I know. I can feel it too. It's really irritating.

Why do you always cut yourself when you shave? Don't you know how to use a razor?

I definitely know how to use a razor. It's just that my skin is really soft as compared to other guys', and my beard is really full.

Oh. So you still have a baby skin, kiddo!

Right, right! Any advice you want to give me, though?

Well, you can try shaving in the hot shower, or in the sauna. The steam will help open the pores.

Hey! Good idea! I'll give it a try next time.

Oh, and using a moisturizer is a good idea.

Hi, Jenny. How are you doing?

I'm good, Becky. What's up?

Hey, you know about skin care, don't you?

Sure. You need some tips?

I have oily skin and I'm sick of these acne outbreaks that pop every other day. How can I get rid of them?

My first advice to you would be to wash your face often, especially before going to bed. Try to use a soft cleanser, not harsh soaps.

I do that already. Is there anything else you can help me with?

Yes. I'll give you a cleanser for oily skin that you should use twice a day.

You can also use cosmetic blotting paper. But don't scrub it, press it gently.

Will it help in drying the acne too?

Definitely. Keep your hair clean and off your face. And avoid resting your hands, or your phone, on your face.

Do you know someone who's been under the knife?

You mean cosmetic surgery?

Yes. I would like to know if it's safe to get a facelift.

What are you talking about? We all know it's not safe at all.

And what's wrong with your face?

I want to go back to the way things were. These wrinkles on my face just disgust me.

Don't be stupid. It's natural. You are just ageing and there's nothing to worry about. It happens with everyone.

Nothing to worry about?! Are you for real?!

Come on. Don't be such a drama queen!
