When it comes to perfumes, you might notice that it fades quite quickly. However, there are some easy ways to help make it last longer on your skin. We’ve put some handy tips together to help you stay smelling great all day.
- Moisturise!
There’s nothing worse than having dry skin, this also does not hold perfume very well. Ensure you keep your skin moisturised with lotions and creams before spritzing your skin with perfume. This will help lock in the fragrance and make it longer lasting. Another option is to use the same scented moisturiser as this will help build a stronger scent.
- Rubbing
We see lots of people rubbing their wrists together after spraying or testing perfume. In doing so, this makes the scent fade quicker as the different layer of notes in the perfume break down. Once you spray, just let it dry on its own.
- Pulse points
Spraying your pulse points helps release the fragrance steadily as these generate heat. Applying perfume to your wrists, neck, and the inside of your elbows helps the scent release naturally.
- Storage
Store perfumes in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight to help it last longer. Also ensure you keep the lid closed tightly.
- Invest
Investing in high quality fragrances such as Eau de parfum will ensure this lasts longer on your skin due to being more oil based than its counterpart, eau de toilette. If you want a long-lasting perfume then choose something rich and high in quality.
