首先，口红怎么说？
lipstick
lipstick（唇膏，口红），英文解释为“something used for adding colour to your lips, in the shape of a small stick”。
这个词非常形象，lip意思是嘴唇（One of the two soft, red edges of the mouth, the lips. You have a pair of lips - an upper lip and a lower lip.）；而stick指“条状物；棍；签；条；槌（有特殊用途的）”，英文解释：a long thin piece of wood, plastic etc that you use for a particular purpose. 两个词合在一起即构成lipstick.
「补充」化妆品（make-up）：
· Foundation is a skin-coloured cream that you put on your face before putting on the rest of your makeup. 粉底霜
· Mascara is a substance used as makeup to make eyelashes darker. 睫毛膏
· blusher：cream or powder used for making your cheeks look red or pink 胭脂

hyaluronic acid
hyaluronic /,haɪəlu'rɑnɪk/

玻尿酸（又称透明质酸、糖醛酸等）是一种是由双糖基本结构组成的糖胺聚糖（glycosaminoglycan），广泛存在于结缔组织（connective tissue）、上皮组织（epithelial tissue）和神经组织（neural tissue）中，具有特殊的生物活性，且拥有无毒、低免疫反应、高生物相容、生物可分解以及人体可吸收等特性，可用于眼睛外科手术、关节内注射液、伤口愈合、外科手术防黏剂，也可用来进行皱纹的填补、脸部组织的调整。（维基百科）
口红里的玻尿酸有什么作用呢？
The lipsticks have hyaluronic acid inside as an ingredient, which not only moisturizes the lips in winter times but also helps relieve wrinkles on them.
moisturize
表示“使 (皮肤) 湿润，滋润，增加水分”，英文解释为“If you moisturize your skin, you rub cream into it to make it softer. If a cream moisturizes your skin, it makes it softer.”，如：products to moisturize, protect, and firm your skin 用于润肤、护肤和紧肤的各种产品

moisturize加个r变成moisturizer，表示“润肤霜，保湿霜，滋润霜”（cream that you put on your skin to make it less dry）。
售价199元，销量火爆，目前已经全部售罄。
Each lipstick sells for 199 yuan ($29). Over 1,000 products were sold after one night.
有顾客认为：“收藏价值比较高”
A customer surnamed Liu reserved one lipstick as soon the items were made available online. "I think the lipstick also has a high collectible value," Liu told the Global Times on Monday.
