How to make perfumes last longer on your skin: an ingenious life hack

Perfumes can create unforgettable impressions and emphasize a person's personality. Also, scents can take us to the best moments of our lives, help us feel more confident and attractive.

One of the biggest problems faced by perfume lovers is the short duration of the scent. That's why Yahoo has shared a life hack to help you cope with it.

The duration of a perfume's scent depends on many factors, such as its quality, skin type, weather conditions, etc. However, there is one universal method that will significantly extend the duration of your favorite scent regardless of the circumstances.

How to improve the longevity of perfume

First, buy a small jar of petroleum jelly and melt it using a steam bath or simply by immersing it in hot water. Then add some of your favorite fragrances to it and mix well. Finally, put the solution in the refrigerator until it hardens and use it as a solid perfume.

The same trick will work not only with perfume, but also with, for example, men's cologne. In this way, the product will be used more economically and the scent will be more persistent.

How it works

Vaseline is essentially oil. That's why its oil-based formula adheres well to the oil-based formula of a perfume and acts as a fixative when applied to the skin. In addition, due to its solid state, the fragrance does not splash into the air, and the evaporation of liquids slows down. This makes your favorite perfume last much longer than usual.
