5 Ways To Smell Fragrant Always
Personal hygiene
The most simple and obvious trick is to bathe daily using an antiseptic soap and rinse thoroughly.Towel dry yourself properly and apply talcum powder in the areas that are the most prone to sweating such as: underarms, back, inner thighs and folds of knees.You can also apply a light textured body lotion to hydrate the rest of your body.Wait for a few seconds to let the moisturizer seep into your skin before draping yourself.
Change into a fresh set of clothes that have been washed with a detergent and conditioned with a fabric softener and preferably sun dried.If you own certain clothes that are not recommended for sun drying, then, you can at least air dry them and iron so, that there is no residual moisture.The role of fabric softeners here is to leave your clothes smelling nice and crisp, always.
Layer up similar smelling products
For instance, using products that smell similar leads to layering up of fragrance and your signature perfume still lingers when you sweat.If you use different products with different kinds of fragrances that are contrasting in nature, the end result is a funny smelling mix of fragrances.The best way possible to get layering of fragrances is to use products from a single set.You can interesting combos of soap, shampoo, bath gel, body lotion and body mist from The Body Shop and The Nature’s co or any brand of your liking for that matter.
Spray at the pulse points
There are certain points or areas in our body where the blood vessels are placed higher up or at a more superficial level than the rest of the areas.Spraying your perfume at these points like: sides of neck, behind the ears, wrist, fold of elbow, behind the knees and inner thighs leads to a better retention and lingering of fragrance.
Stay away from too strong fragrances
In summers, due to excess sweating, it is best to stay away from strong and heady fragrances and choose perfumes which have fresh floral or citrus notes.Also, apply on pulse points after applying a coat of petroleum jelly.
Cotton ball trick
