Beauty Tips
You're Doing It All Wrong!Showering, brushing your teeth, applying foundation and 7 more daily beauty routines you're probably screwing up |
Applying perfume The Fail: Your hair, nails, makeup and everything else is done. Before you head out the door, you spritz that signature fragrance on your wrists, rub them together, take one last look to be sure you don't have lipstick on your teeth, and you're ready to take on the world. Sadly, saving your spritzing until the end of your routine means your perfume probably won't last through lunch.
The Fix: The key to giving your scent some staying power is applying it before you get dressed. It may seem strange at first, but there is a right way to spritz: spray or dab your fragrance directly onto the skin at one or two pulse points, such as your knees, wrists, base of the throat, or behind your earlobes. Resist the urge to rub your wrists together. This breaks down the molecular structure of the fragrance and keeps it from sticking to you throughout the day.
