These life hacks will help not only those who doubt the quality of the purchased perfume. They are especially useful for connoisseurs of elite perfumery: buying your favorite perfume every month is an expensive pleasure. And by prolonging their durability, you can delight yourself with a pleasant aroma and at the same time save money.
Apply perfume immediately after shower
If you take a warm or hot shower in the morning, be sure to apply your favorite scent to your steamed body. It is also recommended to make 1-2 "zips" on the skin, which is not completely dry. Open pores and remaining water droplets will seal the scent on your body. The smell will last all day. If you prefer to have a trail of perfume behind you, refresh the scent right before leaving the house. The first notes will dissolve in the near future, and the base that remained after the shower will continue to smell.
Use a moisturizing lotion
The persistence of the aroma is directly related to the level of moisture. If you put perfume on dry skin, it evaporates very quickly without leaving a trace. The ideal solution is a lotion with the same scent as your perfume (and from the same company). If this is not possible, buy a fragrance-free or subtle body moisturizer. In this case, the smells of eau de toilette and cream will not conflict, but the lotion will prolong the life of the main scent.
Apply petroleum jelly
Think of the film "Perfume", based on the novel by Patrick Suskind. What way did Jean Baptiste Grenouille find to keep the scent of beauties? That's right, he used fat. So why don't we take advantage of this knowledge? To keep your scent fragrant all day long, apply a little petroleum jelly to your neck and wrists and then the perfume. You will see, the greasy base will not let the scent fade.
Do not rub the perfume
You should not give in to the general habit and spray the spray in a millimeter near the neck and hands, and then rub the substance. Another method will increase the durability: spray eau de toilette at a distance of 15-20 cm and let the particles settle on the skin on their own.
Choose the right places
Perfume should be applied to parts of the body where there are more blood vessels - the temperature is slightly higher there, which means that the perfume will last longer. These are the wrists, neck, elbows, weights, the area behind the ears.
Apply some perfume to your hair
Do not forget to apply perfume to your hair - they perfectly seal the smell. And do not think that this method will harm the dried ends. There is much more harm from curling iron and the sun.
Choose the right songs
Not only the method of application, but also the composition itself is directly related to the persistence of perfume. Everyone knows that there are ingredients that will increase it, and there are ingredients that do not last long. Long-livers in the world of smells include chypre, woody and musky aromas, and those who like to evaporate - marine, floral and fruity.
