Are you troubled by the smell of sweat? Your body will smell good all day long even in summer, just follow these 5 secret tricks while applying perfume.

News India Live, Digital Desk: The biggest problem in hot summer and humid weather is the foul smell of sweat coming from the body. We buy the most expensive perfume or deodorant, but as soon as we leave the house, its fragrance disappears within 15-20 minutes. Strong sunlight and sweat quickly evaporate the perfume molecules, due to which the feeling of freshness disappears by afternoon. If you are also worried about why your perfume does not last long, then we are going to tell you those special ways by which your fragrance will not leave you till the evening. Focus on ‘pulse points’ and not on clothes. Most people spray perfume directly on clothes, which is a big mistake. Fragrances do not last as long on clothes as they do on skin. Perfume should always be applied on the ‘pulse points’ of the body. These are the places where the blood vessels are closest to the skin and body heat helps to release the fragrance slowly. Spray your wrists, both sides of the neck, behind the ears, inside the elbows and behind the knees. Magical Use of Petroleum JellyThe most effective way to extend the life of perfume in summer is ‘Vaseline’ or petroleum jelly. Before spraying, apply a little petroleum jelly on your pulse points and then sprinkle perfume over it. The jelly acts as a base that locks the fragrance particles into the skin. Due to this, the perfume sticks to your skin instead of flying in the air and its smell remains for hours. It is best to apply it immediately after bathing. The best time to apply perfume is when you come out of the bath. After bathing, the pores of your skin are open and there is slight moisture in the body. By applying perfume at this time, the skin absorbs the fragrance well. Keep in mind that after applying perfume, never rub your wrists together. Rubbing breaks the top notes of the perfume and the fragrance fades quickly. The fragrance lasts on moisturized skin, but the perfume evaporates very quickly on dry skin. If your skin is dry, apply unscented lotion or body oil before applying perfume. Hydrated skin holds the fragrance longer. Also, always keep the perfume bottle in a cool and dry place. Keeping it near the bathroom or a window with direct sunlight disturbs the chemical balance of the perfume and its quality gets spoiled. Be careful in choosing the perfume. Always choose ‘Eau de Parfum’ (EDP) for the summer season, because the amount of aromatic oils in it is more than ‘Eau de Toilette’ (EDT). Also, choose perfumes with light, floral, aqua or citrus (lemon-orange) base instead of strong and heavy scents in summer. These fragrances make one feel fresher in summer and are more effective in suppressing the smell of sweat.
