Want your perfume to last?

You’re not doing perfume wrong… but you could be doing it better.

Here’s how I layer, apply, and make scent last all day — from lotion tricks to pulse points (and why you should never rub it in).

Soft, clean girl energy but make it long-lasting.

Want your favorite perfume to last longer? Here are some essential tips. First, always apply unscented lotion before your fragrance; this not only moisturizes your skin but also helps to lock in the scent. When spraying your perfume, focus on pulse points —these areas generate more heat and enhance the fragrance. Instead of rubbing the perfume in, gently tap it to avoid altering the scent profile. Choose perfumes with base notes like vanilla or sandalwood, known for their staying power. Additionally, consider layering scents or opting for a matching body lotion to amplify the fragrance throughout the day. Remember to store your perfume in a cool, dry place to preserve its quality. By following these expert tips, you can enjoy a captivating aroma that lasts from morning until evening.
