A-beautician B-Cindy

A: Good afternoon, ma'am. What can I do for you？

B: Good afternoon. I want a facial. But this is the first time I've come here, so can you tell me how you do it?

A: Sure. Most facials start with a thorough cleansing. Then we usually use a toner to invigorate the skin, followed by an exfoliation treatment, a peeling mask or scrub that removes the dead cells that makes the skin look dull. After that, we'll massage your face and neck with oil or cream to improve circulation and relieve tension, followed by a mask to moisturize and soften the skin.

B: That's exactly what I want. How long does it take？

A: There are half hour and one hour treatments. The half hour facial costs twenty yuan and the one hour costs thirty yuan. If you want make-up, add another ten yuan .

B: Good. I'll take the half-hour facial with make-up.

A: We also have manicure service. Would you like it?

B: How much does it cost?

A: Ten yuan.
