在“颜值”变得日益重要的今天，冰箱也不再仅仅是保鲜食物的工具，而渐渐成为化妆品“进驻”的地方。

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。

At the West End]s Rathbone Square each of the penthouse suites, on the market for upwards of about £4.5m, has its own cosmetics fridge. They measure 40cm by 50cm and are hidden beneath a veneer storage unit. "It was part of the brief that the master bathrooms include a cooler for beauty products, " says Kalliopi Kousouri, a partner at Make Architects. "The presumption is that people in these properties will have expensive cosmetics and keeping them in the fridge is good for longer shelf lives. "

伦敦西区拉思伯恩广场如今正被改造成商铺、写字楼以及142套豪华套房。每座楼顶豪华套间的最高售价达450万英镑，都配备了化妆品专用冰箱。它们的规格是40X50厘米，隐藏在胶合板做的储物柜下。“这也是标配内容之一：就是主卫生间得配有化妆品专用冷藏柜。”Make Architects建筑事务所合伙人卡利奥皮·库苏里说。“一般人都认为这些豪宅住户都会拥有价格不菲的化妆品，把它们冷藏至冰箱会大大延长保质期。”超级两人组合的地产开发商Candy Brothers也说收到不少客户配置化妆品冰箱的请求，其中尤以阿拉伯富豪为甚。
