Summer. Finally. Go outside and stroll! In the convertible with the roof resting on the luggage space, fashionably dressed and on the Flipflops to your favorite beach bar. Paal 17 has the most exclusive cocktails and you have just put your sights on it.
You can finally live a bit more Miami to arrange. It was time too. The trendy outfit is of course not complete without a refined scent. For the necessary cachet. Joie de Vivre! However, in the (hot) summer months there are a number of things that you have to take into account if you want to enjoy your, carefully selected, perfume. Because you have to know: heat, sun rays and perfume (vials) don't go together.
That is why it is high time to serve you a number of tips, so you have a long pleasure of your favorite smells in the hottest months of the year.
How do you best protect your perfume in the sun and warmth
Perfume thrives best in a cool environment. So preferably in a room where it is not above 15 degrees Celsius. Heat has an influence on the behavior and structure of the scent. Just like with wine by the way. Due to heat, a perfume can quickly get out of date. Even spoil.
Heating and/or fluctuating temperatures also affect the quality of the odor. This can change substantially when a vial is exposed to high temperatures. Windows benches are no go areas. Because: abundant sun & warmth.
The bathroom is also one Forbidden zone. Far too hot and humid. A very bad combination. If you do want to enjoy your perfumes for a longer period of time, a few clear options.
A fairly good place is a closed cupboard where the perfume is dark and no (in) direct sunlight absorbs. A first -class place to keep your scents in the summer is the fridge. This way they stay longer and it is nice to spray a correct cooling scent on a hot day. Crisp!
The scent bottles brotherly in the refrigerator next to the bottles of white beer, vanilla custard and the semi -skimmed milk. Check.
That’ll do the trick.
Spray perfume immediately after showering.
After taking a hot/hot shower, the pores are open and that is the right moment to get up the perfume strategic Places (we will come back on) to spray. Of course after you have just dried. The odor molecules then penetrate better in the skin so that it simply fails less quickly and the intensity of the scent stays on for longer.
Spray perfume in tactical places
We have just described it already, perfume And sun do not go well together. This allows its composition to change and the perfume can smell completely different. The scent can also quickly disappear due to the influence of the sun.
Sun rays can also have an even more stubborn effect when you are sensitive or allergic to a combination of perfume, UV-A and sunlight. This allows you to even get a rash and/or pigmentation spots. That is why it is highly recommended to spray the perfume in tactical places. For example behind the ears (when you have a little longer hair), behind the neck, knee cavities, the chest or on the ankles.
Rash or stains on the skin
Unfortunately, by spraying perfume and the combination of sunlight you will still suffer from stains or skin discoloration. Fabrics that make your skin more sensitive to UV-A radiation are furocoumarines. This matter usually occurs in (citrus) extracts that are used in shampoos, soap products, aftershave & perfumes.
If you are confronted with this physical misery, you can also determine to spray the perfume on a piece of clothing. Or at least in places on the skin where the sun has no access. What you can also do is put a little vaseline on the skin where you spray the perfume. A odorless lotion can also be a safe choice and offer sufficient protection.
An advantage when applying Vaseline before spraying the perfume is that the scent stays on for (much) longer. Mieters!
Last tip from The Alpha Boys: Make sure you don't spray heavy "woody" scents in this summer time, but opt for crispy fresh variants. For the sake of convenience, let's introduce you to you.
