With an ever-growing selection of perfumes to choose from, you may be wondering why you need a body mist. For those looking for a long-lasting fragrance from the moment they step out of their morning shower, body mists are a staple for your fragrance wardrobe.
Perfect for throwing in your school bag for an in-between-classes refresh, body mists & spritzers are a fragrance rite of passage for teenagers. Yet, they’re also so much more than that. Body mists are now a must-have fragrance item for everyone, not just teenagers.
WHAT IS A BODY MIST?
In comparison to perfume a body mist is lighter, softer and less concentrated. Body mists and spritzers offer a pleasant all-over scent without being overpowering.
Lasting up to 4 hours, the longevity of a body mist is shorter than that of perfume, so you’ll need to top up your body mist throughout the day to keep the beautiful scent lasting longer. But, it’s well worth it for a subtle boost of fragrance throughout the day.
The shorter life span of body mists means they are often available in larger sizes and at a fraction of the price of perfume, giving you even more reason to keep spritzing all day long.
HOW DO YOU USE BODY MISTS?
Much like perfume, body mists should be applied directly to the skin. We recommend spraying your body mist all over your skin immediately after your morning shower or bath.
Want to know our #1 tip for body mists? Apply a complementing scented body butter before spraying your body mist over the top to keep your scent smelling fresher for longer. The moisturising properties of the body butter help to hydrate skin which, in turn, will help lock in your fragrance.
