Tips for using perfume for cold winter days
(Baonghean.vn)- Perfume is an invisible jewelry but it shows the style, aesthetic taste, and even personality of the user. Like clothes, perfume is a seasonal cosmetic. That means in winter and summer, we have different secrets to using perfume.
Here are some tips for using perfume in cold winter days, helping you keep the scent longer and more attractive:
1. Choose a stronger scent
If in the summer, citrus, green tea and light floral scents dominate, then winter is when deep and warm tones like wood, smoke, vanilla, amber... take the throne.

In winter you should choose warmer and stronger scents. |
Not all scents are created equal. While light, fresh scents like citrus tend to dissipate quickly, warm, spicy scents like sandalwood can last for a while.
So, if longevity of your perfume is your primary concern, in winter choose warm and strong scents over cool and sweet ones.
2. Combine many types of scents

It is not necessary to use a whole set of shower gel - body lotion - perfume with the same scent. You can try combining several scents, spraying several perfumes to choose the most suitable combination for yourself.
3. Know where to spray perfume
You use perfume on warm areas of the body where the blood vessels run the most, such as: chest, behind the ears, inside the arms, behind the knees... The higher temperature in these areas of skin makes the perfume scent spread and makes the top, middle and base notes radiate most clearly.

4. Never rub perfume on the skin
Do not rub, wipe or wipe hard on the areas of skin where you spray perfume, high friction will cause the perfume to change its scent and evaporate more easily. Spraying and rubbing your wrists together should only be a beautiful image in the movie, do not do it this way!
5. Know when to apply perfume
The best time to spray perfume is right after you shower. The moisture on your skin will help lock in the scent, making it less likely to evaporate than if you spray it on dry skin. Plus, spraying it at this time will also prevent it from getting on your clothes or jewelry, causing them to stain and tarnish.

6. Keep your skin moisturized
Moisturized skin always retains the scent of perfume much better than dry skin. Some scents cannot be absorbed on dry skin. So you should diligently moisturize your body, especially in this dry season. Not only will it help your skin stay young, but it will also make the scent of perfume last longer.
7. Store perfume properly

A wardrobe or a dresser drawer is an ideal place to store perfume. |
High temperatures and humidity will break down the molecules in your perfume, making it more susceptible to deterioration. A spoiled perfume will no longer smell as good and can be harmful to your health. The best way to store perfume is on the top shelf of your wardrobe or in a drawer on your dressing table.
8. Reapply several times a day

In cold weather, you need to re-spray many times to keep the scent all day. |
Our skin is always breathing, that's why it doesn't retain scent for too long. So if you want to always have a great scent at all times, don't forget to carry mini perfume bottles in your bag so you can reapply at any time.
