Get the most out of your pricey perfumes.
there are small hacks that you should do.
Like, rubbing Vaseline on your pulse points before spraying your perfume to make the scent last longer.
Always the ointment, which is occlusive, will hold the fragrance to your skin longer than if you spray it onto dry skin. So keep moisturized you will have also better skin.
Do not make the most made mistake after spraying on your wrists you should avoid dabbing the fragrance. If you rub your wrists together, you'll force the top notes to disappear faster than intended and as a result, make your fragrance not last as long.
Target pulse points and warm areas on your body when spraying perfume.
To make your scent last longer, choose a couple of target areas (not all of them at once) from the chart below to spritz.
The warm areas indicated will help diffuse the fragrance across your entire body and spraying your ankles and calves will allow the scent to rise throughout the day.
You can start by applying an unscented lotion before your fragrance. Oily complexions retain fragrances longer, so if you have dry skin, use a moisturizer first to help lock in the scent.
Spray your perfume right after taking a shower and before getting dressed.
The moisture on your skin will help lock in the scent. This will also prevent the fragrance from staining delicate clothes or jewellery.
For a lighter scent, spray the fragrance in the air and slowly walk into the mist. The spray will distribute evenly across your body and leave you with a hint of fragrance for occasions when you don't want to smell as strong
Spraying an alcohol-based fragrance directly onto your hair will dry it out, so instead spray the fragrance on your brush before running it through your hair. Your hair will be lightly scented and undamaged. Or use a fragrance specifically designed for hair to make it smell better in between washes.
Choose your own perfume
Familiarize yourself with common fragrance terms so you know exactly what the sales associates are referring to when helping you find a new perfume. Create your own custom scent by layering fragrances. Spray a few fragrance blotters with different oils and perfumes and smell them at the same time to see if they complement each other. Once you find a combination you like, try them on your skin (your skin oils can alter the way a perfume smells). Spray the stronger scent first and then top it with the lighter fragrance so that the first fragrance doesn't overpower the second.
To sample the true scent of the fragrance you're testing, wait until it has dried on your skin before smelling. The first scent you smell as soon as a fragrance is sprayed is the top note, which disappears after a few minutes anyway. Spray cotton swabs with your perfume and hide them in sandwich bags inside your handbag for quick touch-ups throughout the day. It's much easier to carry cotton swabs in your clutch than an entire perfume bottle.
Pour the last bit of fragrance from an almost-empty perfume bottle into unscented lotion so nothing goes to waste.
Line your dresser drawers with tissue paper and spray them with your favourite scent to make your clothes and towels smell amazing. I
Spray your pillow with calming scents before heading to bed to help you sleep better.
If you want your fragrances to last longer you should avoid storing them in the Bathroom or warm places
