SPRAY PERFUMES ON THE PULSE POINTS AND MAKE THE SCENT LAST LONGER







    I have never been a fan of perfumes back then . I am more into  body spray because the alcoholic content of perfumes give me headache.  A close friend of mine though, has been spoiling me continuously with some bottles recently and my love for perfume is growing. Right now my favourite scent is Hugo Boss' Nuit and Elizabeth Arden's 5th Avenue.
 
   Perfume or body spray are signature scents for individuals. Possessing a particularly scent can become a kind of personal trademark.  What comes to mind is how to prolong the scent all day without having to tuck in your perfume bottles everywhere you go. This may not be much of a problem for those who prefer to go for expensive perfumes because their scents tend to last longer without spraying much
.


            BEHIND THE EARS, ON THE WRISTS , ANKLES
            INSIDE THE ELBOWS,  BEHIND THE KNEES, COLLAR BONES
 To make the scent of your perfume and body spray last longer, these are the most effective point on the body where the blood vessels are closer to the skin which produce heat and help to intensify the scents. They are commonly known as the 'pulse points'.

  Other areas includes
          HAIR    - Scents cling to fibre and spraying your favourite perfume on your hair will leave a lasting smell. But careful, the alcohol content can dry your hair, I suggest you spray to your hair bush and comb through your hair to distribute the fragrance. This is one of my favourite parts. I love how the scent disperses when the wind blows through my hair when am outdoors.

          BELLY BUTTON , BETWEEN THE CLEAVAGE , ON THE NAPE OF THE NECK,
          DOWN YOUR BACK  -  The heat from your from skin combined with your body movement will diffuse the fragrance.



   It is really common for some people to spray perfumes all over their  body randomly and at the end, they try to overcompensate by using too much of it. This is what I call 'bathing with perfume'. This brings to mind  a friend who is a serious perfume lover. She has the habit of spraying and mixing different perfumes at the same time and end up over doing it and when she walks pass you, the smell is so overpowering and you end up sneezing. It is more like perfume abuse.

     For additional perfume goodness you can also spray on your clothing. For those who have skin sensitivity to perfumes, you should spray on clothes instead of skin. My favourite spots are my hair, ears and decolletage. What are  yours?

CREATING MY 2021 VISION BOARD

 Happy New Year!  New Year, new moves! I'm sure most of us have goals and visions we would like to accomplish for this new year. At the start of every new year, I list my goals on a paper. But this time, I'm not going to just put them on paper, but also i will also create a vision board in order to attach pictures to each and every goals that I will achieve.  What is a vision board? A vision board is a visual representation of all those things that you would like to see materialise within a specific period of time. Vision boards are very powerful.

HOME SWEET HOME: BACK IN WARRI

   Feels so wonderful to be back in Warri after being away for months. You know, Lagos have a way of getting under your skin and you could almost get sucked into the frenzy. Been living in Lagos for about a year now and I am almost turning into an Eko babe o, lol. But as usual Warri no dey carry last, so am still much of a Warri babe front and centre.    Been a long while I had a road trip. I took a vehicle from the island to Warri. The idea of taking a cab to the airport, the distance from the island and these Nigerian airlines and their unreliability. Your flight getting postponed or cancelled for one reason or the other without any compensation or explanations. We all know how incompetent our local airlines are. You know the routine, so I quietly packed my baggage and all to one transport company. The journey was smooth and bump-less because the vehicle wa fresh and new. It rained on the way and I tried not to sleep but the air'conditioner will not let me live. I dozed
