How to make a body mist last longer
Moisturize first. Fragrance fades fastest on dry skin.
Spray pulse points and hair. Wrists, neck, behind the knees and hair.
Spray clothes and scarves. Fabric holds scent for hours.
Layer the same scent (wash, lotion, mist).
Don’t rub your wrists together.
FAQ
How long should a body mist last?
Usually a few hours. Layering with lotion and spraying hair or clothes helps a lot.
Is a body mist the same as perfume?
No. Body mists have less fragrance oil, so they’re lighter and need reapplying.
Can I spray body mist in my hair?
Many are made for hair and body. If yours is high in alcohol, spray your brush instead.
