        The price of looking and feeling good 美容舒心的成本

        英國普通家庭每年用于美容和美發的支出占家庭預算的2%。這其中包括洗漱用品、化妝品和相關電器的花銷。相比之下,受女性歡迎的護理包括去美發店吹發,而男性則尤其會花錢做按摩和面部護理。本期 “隨身英語” 聊一聊美容舒心所需的成本。

        詞匯:beauty 美容

        How much do you spend on looking after yourself each month? We all like to look and feel good, so it's nice to spend money on ourselves sometimes! You might spend your hard-earned cash on visiting the hairdresser, a gym membership or pampering yourself with a massage.

        When it comes to hair and beauty, the average UK household spends just under 2% of their budget, according to personal finance experts, Nimble Fins. That's about £38 a month if you have an annual salary of £30,000. Areas that were looked at in their survey included toiletries, cosmetics, and related electrical appliances, like hairdryers.

        However, it seems that some people spend much more than that. The booking app for all things aesthetic, Pamperbook, carried out a survey in 2022 of 900 UK salons and freelancers. The results found that female clients who use the app spend, on average, £1,000 per month. The survey showed that the most popular treatments were lashes and lip fillers, while customers frequently visited hair salons for a blow dry.

        But it's not only women who spend money on beauty. Though men and women visit spas more or less equally, according to the International Spa Association, or ISPA, men spend more on treatments. A national survey in 2019 found that male participants spend more on massages and facials per year than women – £501 to £445. Garrett Mersberger, head of the ISPA, said: "Men are more aware that it's not just a thing I go to to get pampered. It's an actual lifestyle choice with benefits to my body, my wellness."

        Whether you tend to spend money on these things or not, it can certainly feel good to treat yourself every now and then!
