How to Make Your Perfume Last Longer
Share
Summer is approaching, and it's the season for light, fresh fragrances, but these scents often tend to fade more quickly. Here are some tips to help your perfume last longer:
Moisturize your skin : Apply lotion or moisturizer before spraying your perfume. Perfumes last better on well-hydrated skin.
Use petroleum jelly : Apply a thin layer of petroleum jelly to pulse points (wrists, neck, behind the ears) before spraying your perfume. Petroleum jelly helps the scent last longer.
Spray on pulse points : Pulse points, where the skin is warmer, diffuse the fragrance better. Focus on the wrists, neck, behind the ears, and even behind the knees.
Do not rub : After applying perfume, avoid rubbing your wrists together. This can break up the perfume molecules and reduce its duration.
Apply to hair and clothing : Hair and clothing hold fragrances well. Spray lightly on your hairbrush before styling or on your clothing (testing on a small area first to avoid staining).
Use matching products : Use shower gels, lotions, and deodorants from the same line or type as your perfume. This creates layers of fragrance that last longer.
Store your perfumes properly : Keep your perfumes away from direct light, heat, and humidity. A cool, dark place, such as a drawer, is ideal.
By following these tips, you'll be able to enjoy your light fragrances all summer long without having to constantly reapply them. Enjoy the season with fragrances that stay with you all day long!
