Tips To Make Your Perfume Last Longer!
5 TIPS TO MAXIMISE YOUR PERFUMES
Your perfume, just like any other beauty product out there, must work for you. A nice-smelling perfume is the finishing touch to a stylish getup, while one that is too intense and suffocating will take attention away from your outfit.
Knowing how to use your perfume in the correct way is the key to staying and smelling fresh throughout the day. So check out these tips to keep the smell of your perfume lasting longer on your skin:
1. Check out your perfume’s concentration
In order to know how long your fragrance can last on your skin, you need to be aware of your perfume’s concentration. The higher the concentration, the longer it will last on your skin. Extremely concentrated perfumes can easily become too overpowering and must be used sparingly. Eau de parfums have higher concentration and can last around 5 hours on skin, while eau de toilettes have a lower concentration and are lighter, lasting for around 3 hours on skin.
2. Spray perfume on your skin after showering
Your skin and pores are ready to hold onto perfume scents after you shower. Spray, or spritz your perfume on your skin after you have thoroughly dry yourself. Also, putting on your fragrance after you shower leaves you feeling and smelling fresh!
3. Apply perfume on your pulse points
If you want your scent to last the day, you need to know where to best apply it. Your pulse points are the best areas to apply your perfume as these warm areas help circulate the fragrance all throughout the day. Your pulse points are on your wrists, inside your elbows, on the nape of your neck, behind your ears and behind your knees.
4. Spray your hair too
Spraying a bit of fragrance on your hair can also help keep you smelling fresh all day. However, don’t spray too much perfume on your hair as it can become overpowering and may even damage your hair. A light mist is plenty enough to last you throughout the day.
5. Use perfume with its complete set of lotion and wash
If you want your skin to smell fresh throughout the day, it is highly recommended for you to use the sets that your perfume comes with – usually with bath wash and lotion. Using these as a set can help you keep the scent of your perfume from the bath until you dress up, making your skin fragrant all day long. Some perfumes come in limited gift sets that are well worth your money from time to time!
