摘要随着中国经济的迅猛发展和中国对外开放政策的不断加强和深入，越来越多的外国品牌和产品纷纷进入国内市场，其中就包括了各种品牌的化妆品。显而易见，阅读产品说明书是众多消费者深入了解产品的首要途径。因此，作为一种特殊的广告形式，化妆品说明书是商家与消费者沟通的桥梁，发挥着举足轻重的作用。面临当下如此激烈的市场竞争，好的翻译文本对化妆品公司来讲是其在市场上是否受到欢迎的关键。

目前在国内对于化妆品说明书翻译研究仍属于一个薄弱环节，缺乏系统理论指导。德国功能派的目的论已有一套很完整的理论体系且对于实用性文本的翻译有很大的借鉴价值，本文将从这一理论角度出发，对化妆品说明书的英译汉问题进行探讨，研究化妆品说明书翻译中应遵循的方法及翻译策略，使其更好的为我们服务。
