Keys to using perfume properly

Perfume is a very important element of our personality. The fragrance we select identifies us and distinguishes us from others. In fact, there are people who do not go out without a few drops of their favorite scent. However, the smell often does not last as long as we would like and evaporates a few hours after applying the fragrance. What can we do so that the essence lasts throughout the day?

Correct use of perfume: when and how to apply it

We tend to believe that the more perfume we apply, the more and better we will smell. But this is not usually the case. Precisely, an excess of aroma is quite uncomfortable, at least for those around us. These are the 5 most important issues to take into account for the correct use of perfume :

1.   Apply after getting out of the shower. This is the moment when

   the cleaner the skin will be and, therefore, the better it will absorb the perfume. Of course: the skin will have to be dried thoroughly, because if there is water, the fragrance is diluted and it will smell much less. Also, if the shower is with hot water, much better, since the pores will be more open and receptive to both the creams and the perfumes that we put on it.

2.   Apply it on the pulse points. The upper part of the neck, the inner part of the wrists and elbows and behind the ears are the areas where to apply perfume . As the blood circulates closer to the skin, the temperature of these areas is higher and they better capture the perfume.

3.  Spray at a distance of approximately 10 centimeters . In this way, the liquid is better distributed in the area where we apply it.

4.   Let the perfume dry. It is not good to rub the fragrance or dry it with clothes. On the one hand, the most delicate garments will be stained and, many times, they will not even be cleaned in the washing machine. And, on the other hand, by rubbing the liquid, we break the structure of the perfume and it will not do any good to have applied it after the shower and in the pulse areas.

5.   Do not add too much. If the perfume is of quality, its intensity will be the same in one drop or in ten. On many occasions, excess odor can be unpleasant. Therefore, the ideal is to apply only a little in the indicated areas. Thus, the product will last longer.

In short, the reason why we do not enjoy a perfume is not that we have not applied it correctly. We just have to use it at the right time, in the most receptive areas and making use of all the delicacy that a fragrance requires.
