Here’s how your perfume lasts longer
Perfume is something that cannot be missing from your morning routine. A perfume comes in handy for every occasion. But applying a perfume is not as simple as it seems. In fact, there are all techniques and ways for the best results. These are them.
Don’t rub
A technique that many people already know, but still needs to be named, is that you should not rub perfume into your skin. When you apply your perfume to your wrists, it is best to just let it dry without doing anything to it. This will make it absorb into your skin the right way.
Vaseline
Another trick to make your perfume smell longer is to smear Vaseline on the areas where you apply your perfume. This keeps the perfume on the skin, rather than being absorbed. This prevents the acidity from being reduced and your skin maintains the correct PH value.
Hydrated skin
Make sure your skin is well hydrated when you apply perfume. This is because oily skin holds more fragrance than dry skin.
Sites with thin skin
When deciding which spots to spray your perfume on, make sure you choose spots with thin skin. It will last longer in these places because of the warmth of the skin. Think of places like your wrists, behind your ears, in your elbow and on the neck.
Proper spacing
It is best to apply your perfume with a distance of about 20 centimeters. If you spray it from too close, the fragrance cannot be absorbed into the skin. This is because your skin will then deposit the oil.
