Do's and don'ts of wearing perfume

Do's of wearing perfume

If you have dry skin, wear extra perfume. The oils in your skin, or lack thereof, can enhance or weaken the scent. When it's cold out, wear extra perfume. Cold weather tends to weaken the scent as well.

The best time to apply perfume is right after a shower or bath. After bathing, your skin pores will be open and will soak up the perfume's fragrance.

When applying perfume, dab it in unusual places where it will stay warm and keep its scent longer. It can be applied on the inside of the elbow, on the wrist, neck, stomach, cleavage, and back of the knees.

Don't use only one perfume year round.

Test out various perfumes during seasonal changes to see which ones work best in the hot or cool temperatures.

Never apply perfume behind the ears. It can blend with skin secretions and create a bad smell.
