It's no secret that favorite spirits improve not only the mood, but also the well-being of a woman. How to choose a summer perfume with benefit for yourself and avoid harm, our readers are advised by the perfumer-cosmetologist, research associate of the Moscow Research Institute of Synthetic and Natural Perfumery Jeanne Gladkova.
"Last summer I used perfume. In the sun-exposed areas of the skin where I applied perfume, I had pigment spots. Why did this happen? ".
Marina Lysenkova, g. Zheleznodorozhny Moscow Region.
- Perfumes under the influence of sunlight can leave pigmentation spots on the skin. It depends on the individual reaction of your skin to those or other components of perfume. In particular, bergamot oil can lead to such trouble. Therefore, in summer, I do not advise you to use perfume. There is one more reason why it is better to give up spirits in the warm season. The fact is that parfum - so the spirits are called in French and are indicated on the package - has a high concentration of fragrant substances. Under the influence of the sun and the skin warmed by its rays, the smell intensifies. And too strong aroma loses all its charm. For the summer is more suitable perfume water (edp) or even less concentrated toilet water (edt). Not bad is also cologne (eau de Cologne). These types of perfumes contain water. It softens the effect of alcohol on the skin. For sensitive skin this is especially important - because the sun in a duet with alcohol components sometimes causes irritation on it. The least saturated, and therefore most suitable for hot days, the smell has a perfumed deodorant. His fragrance will envelop you with a barely perceptible, giving your image a mystery with a cloud.
"Strangely enough, the spirits that pleased me in the winter, began to annoy in the summer. Why is this happening? How to choose the right summer fragrance? What smells are in fashion this summer? ".
Maria Zavyalova, Sochi - Not suitable for the season, the smell can not only spoil the mood, but even worsen the state of health. Spicy, woody, musky fragrances are able to "warm" in a frosty frost. But in the summer such smells are contraindicated - they really can seem suffocating. After all, it's so hot in the street - there's no need to wrap in a "warm" scent. For summer, light, airy, transparent perfume compositions are more suitable. More recently, floral, fruit flavors have been in vogue. And today, preference is given to citrus, herbaceous scents - the aroma of grapefruit, bergamot, young foliage after rain. In the plume of smell, woody notes can be unobtrusively present. The main tendency of the scents of summer 2001 is as much naturalness as possible. Your scent should blend with the scent of nature, raging greens. A bright fancy smell is appropriate only for the evening time. Here are the most interesting and relevant summer compositions, among which any woman will be able to find her "own" flavor: "Dazzling Silver" and "Dazzling Gold" from E. Lauder, "Oxygene" by Lanvin, "Flower by Kenzo" by Kenzo, "Pleasures" by E.
Lauder, "5-th avenue" from E. Arden, "Salvatore Ferragamo" from Ferragamo, "Noa" from Cocharel, "Escado Sport" from Escado, "Ozon" from S. Taccinni, "Le Feu d'issey (light)" by Issey Miyaki, "Aqua allegoria" by Guerlain.
