Secrets you don't know to make your perfume hold all day: the comprehensive “Lily” guide
Have you ever been frustrated that your favorite perfume that you put on in the morning has completely disappeared by noon It is a problem that many face, and we often blame the quality of the perfume itself. However, at Lilly perfumes, and through the experience of our founder Lilly Grassley in selecting the formulations that are “made to last”, we know that the way a perfume is applied and cared for plays a decisive role in its consistency, just like the quality of its ingredients.
A perfume is not just a smell, it is an aura that accompanies you, and to keep this aura bright, here are the most important secrets that many overlook to ensure that your perfume lasts as long as possible:
1. Hydration is the magic key: Perfumes do not stick to dry skin. Imagine your skin as a sponge; if it is dry it will absorb nothing, and if it is wet it will retain moisture. Therefore, the best time to spray perfume is immediately after taking a shower, or after moisturizing your skin with an unscented lotion (or lotion of the same fragrance if available). Aromatic molecules stick to the oils on your moist skin, giving it a longer life.
2. Target your pulse points intelligently: Pulse points are areas where blood vessels are close to the surface of the skin, which makes it warmer. This warmth helps to spread the aroma continuously. Concentrate the spray on: the wrists of the hands, behind the ears, in the crook of the elbows, and even behind the knees. These points act as natural odor distributors with every movement you make.
3. Stop rubbing your wrists!: This common habit is the first enemy of perfume. When you rub your wrists together after spraying perfume, you are not helping to fix it, you are “breaking down” fine aromatic molecules, especially the top notes (top notes) that quickly volatilize, changing the aroma of the perfume and reducing its shelf life. Just sprinkle with perfume and let it dry naturally.
4. Proper storage protects your investment: Light, heat, and humidity are the enemies of perfume. Storing your luxury bottles in the bathroom or on a hairdo opposite the sun spoils the chemical composition of the perfume and loses its consistency. The optimal place is a dark, cool, dry place, such as your wardrobe.
