okay i’m not responding to any comments anymore lol. You guys have to realize that not everyone was taught everything that you guys know. and remember that y’all had to learn it from someone too or from experience. so not knowing something doesn’t make someone “pathetic” “stupid” “slow” like grow up lol second the comments about this being a “transgender” voice needs to stop. You guys are so negative if you don’t like something just don’t watch it lol.
the only thing I take issue with is you not liking the amber oil...lol.. J/K. I just yesterday was saying how much I love it. But I do need to see what the vanilla musk one smells like.
You can take body cream or any unscented oil, put some in your hand and spray some pumps of your fave perfume in it and rub all over. Then mist a little more perfume on top once it sets in. Smell lasts for hours.
@@bibsbeezASMR Maybe not if your allergic or have skin conditions like excema. I would just opt for lotioning up your whole body with unscented oil/lotion and then add a few drops in the areas you like to smell and that are not very sensitive. So your shoulders neck elbows and knees. That way you avoid the sensitive skin and still get a nice smell.
This is a VERY old hack. I think women in the 60's did this. All the Black Women I know have always done this including my mom. Add perfume to any oil. It's heavenly, enjoy! ❤
Better yet it goes back to ancient Egypt! They would ceremoniously anoint themselves with fragranced oils very often. Ain’t nothin new under this sun 😅
What if my body oil smells kinda bad? Will the perfume mask it or just be weird? Also can I apply the body oil like normal and then spray perfume or do o have to mix it?
@@SallySkeleton i think u should get a body oil that smells good to you so no to a “bad smelling” oil . That way any perfume you put on top of the oil will complement it and give you an overall good smell (b.c youre also clean)
@@SallySkeleton dont have to mix it but i honestly never tried. I just put a light layer of oil atop my skin + spray all over my body twice . Once in underwear but avoiding all sensitive areas like groin + underarms . Second with my clothes on so the scent clings to my clothing. Hope this helps
Not every scent will smell the same on every person, we all produce a different scent and fragrance mixes with our chemistry differently. I find certain high end fragrances smell sour on me after a few hours so I use cheaper body sprays that smell better and I apply as needed.
Diet actually does impact your natural body smell but it's also likely an ingredient in the high end fragrance reacts badly with your natural scent. That or you're using a 'parfum' version (more intense composition) compared with a 'Toilette' version (more lighter concentration) that most cheaper body sprays use. Some people (like yourself) just thrive better with lighter scents so you're absolutely right about the differences. Perhaps you can try the 'Toilette' versions of high end perfumes (if you haven't already) and see if you like it. Or check if your other scents (like shampoo, body lotion, oils etc) might also be clashing.
@@dblessed7860 Thanks, lol. When you use pheromone perfumes (like Molecule) that's when you really know the impact of your diet on your body scent. I didn't know before but it was eye opening when I found out.
This is so funny 😂, my mom used to do this years ago with coconut oil and a perfume oil. Everyone always wanted to know how we smelled do good in secondary school. 🇹🇹😂😂😂
I love the Neutrogena oil and and your favorite perfume to it, and put it all over your body as soon as you get out of the shower while your skin is still warm. The smell will stay with you all day. Trust me.
@@rae7864 Neutrogena has unscented or scented sesame oil, I like the scented one and I add my favorite perfume added to it. I just spray the perfume into the body oil.
Lmao! Arabs have been doing this for literally hundreds of years. Glad it’s catching on in other parts of the world though. In my culture (Northern Sudanese), women take it up a notch by lathering their bodies in pure sandalwood oil and doing a sauna like treatment where we sit with a fire pit underneath made of aromatic wood. The smell is AMAZING and stays on your skin for several weeks even if you shower twice a day 😂 We also use body scrubs made of sandalwood oil and other aromatic stuff. Then we use Bukhari (incense) made of sandalwood and a bunch of perfumes. The whole routine is pretty expensive but worth every penny. If you walk by the smell lingers in the room behind you for a long while.
Thank you! When the beautiful African woman would come to my job when I worked at the Sam's Club I never understood what that strong scent on then was. To some people, it stank, but not to me. It it just was too much as it permeated on all of them no matter if they knew each or not. Too me it smelled like Burmese incense cones I've seen in the olive green house shaped box.
@@Ms_Jaye the benefit of this sauna-like treatment is that it makes whatever perfume you use much stronger and make it last all day. The smell of it on its own isn’t bad but it’s not my favourite. It’s best if it’s paired with sandalwood incense. Smells soooo delicious and soothing 🤤
@@autumnskye5010fr I used sunscreen on my face so I was dewy and this guy seriously asked me why I'm so sweaty. Cought me off guard so bad I didn't know how to respond😂
@@autumnskye5010 Fr! When I go to the makeup store, they always ask me if I want dewy or matte and I'm like what? Lol I'm not paying to look like I just came from the gym.There is a way to have a glow without being oily.
Fresh and Clean is my FAVORITE fragrance category! Chanel eau fresh is my absolute favorite freshie right now. The teakwood projects on my skin like crazy! Please keep these coming. Love your channel 💜
It's actually very sensitive skin friendly, especially the Neutrogena oil. You usually have to find it online because a lot of stores don't carry it anymore.
@@melanatednaturemaiden5663 I think she’s referring to the perfume, not the body oil. I’ve had a rash before from applying perfume directly onto my skin.
I'm definitely going to try this with lavender oil, especially because it's getting warm and bugs don't like lavender. I'm going to smell lovely and keep the bugs away. It's a win, win.
i tried this! my only issue was that the aveeno body oil kind of absorbed the vanilla musk and all i could smell was the aveeno. The aveeno oil has its own slight citrusy/warm scent. if anyone is about to try this, definitely try with a more neutral oil like unscented baby oil so you’re not mixing scents, the fragrance oil will stand alone after the baby oil smell wears off.
Essential oil users have been doing this for decades. I never buy designer perfume. I make my own using pure plant oils & a carrier oil and that's a lot safer & non-toxic and also helps your cells.
I do this exact thing except I use a carrier oil like sweet almond or something of the sort and mix it with essential oils to make my own blend. I've been doing this for years and I'm constantly getting compliments om how great I smell. If I wanna smell stronger like if I need to be smelling great for hours ill do that then I spray my perfume on top after the oils soaked into my skin. That way my fragrance holds up from the morning all the way to coming home from going out that night.
Also, I highly recommend jasmine essential oil. It has me smelling so beautiful and everyone loves it. But more importantly, have fun making your own concoctions! Fragrance is supposed to make you feel good. Don't let anyone tear you down for not knowing this hack. You know now so you get to be creative and make your own smell goods that fit well with your body chemistry.
So basically, perfume oil. Suggestion: Less chemicals if you use a natural oil like Jojoba. You can buy a gynormous bottle of Jojoba with a pump for about 30$ and it will last for a year or more.❤️
Listennn!!! That Aveeno body oil and Vanilla musk oil is the TRUTH!!! Sometimes for the extra razzle dazzle I add Victoria Secret Vanilla spray (the original joint in the brown/gold bottle) on top (it’s the best vanilla scent in my opinion; idc lol) and it stays ALL DAY LONG!!!
I’ve been using Amber Cream oil for years…as there are different ones…and it’s a great base to use under most perfumes. It only takes a small amount. And WOAH! No one can quite figure it out, but it drives the people crazy ❤️😂
Little Sis, whatever you use on your face keep it up! I'll be 50 my next birthday and started good skincare with good products in my 20's. Not one wrinkle! Your skin is glowing!!❤
@Rue Hey! Some if this I know you've probably heard already, but definitely do them..If you wear makeup ALWAYS wash it off. Don't sleep in it. Once or twice a week I use a steamer (Amazon, like $25) to open pores and get a good deep clean. Use a good eye cream, serum (not extremely necessary but worth it if it's in your budget) and a good moisturizer. Personally I pass on anything designed to control oiliness. Oil is good for your skin, that helps prevent wrinkles and keeps your skin soft and supple. I also think anti aging products should be used sooner than later. Don't wait until your 40's..use them no later than 30. Oh also when washing your face and applying skincare products you want use an upward motion and also pat/press it into your skin. Don't pull or tug, don't sleep with your face pressed into your pillow. Some of my favorite product brands are Drunk Elephant, Origins, Tula and Sunday Riley. Drink your water, eat plenty of fresh fruit, don't smoke and hydrate your skin everyday!😉❤️
Yes!!! Kinda something I learned from my dad. He always smells so good. When I started learning about notes and carriers and stuff I learned that fats and oils make your fragrances last longer. It's science. Now, experiment 🎉
Another hack I’ve done since like high school is when any of my perfumes run out, I fill the bottle up like 1/4 w just plain water (filtered if possible) & the water is almost exactly the same smell as the perfume , it lasts just as long and smells just as strong. U can even do it a second time but the second time u fill it w water it’ll be a little weaker kinda like body spray ish.
Thank you for posting this hack!! 😍 I don’t know why the world is infested with so many Karens these days. Smh, not everyone had the fortune of having a mom or sister there to give advice. But even then, that’s the whole point of these videos - to share tips and tricks.
I thought this was something new, I'm glad you're learning about it as women have been using this since forever. I had my favorite roll oil perfume in the 90s. It's just being brought back in a different package.
Honey the Aveeno Body Oil and my favorite Palmer Body Oil, both put Neutrogena’s body oil to shame. You’re not missing anything. Also you’re very pretty and glowy🤭🫶🏽!
If you use hair oils, add the perfume to your hair oil too! When you sweat or your hair gets any sort of damp or warm later on, it will reactivate the perfume and the scent will blossom around you!
This is literally like lotion? Buff City Soaps makes scented shower oils to use just after showering and they make your skin so buttery soft and smell amazing ❤ but this is great for your signature scent!
The Neutragena one is at Costco. And it’s a HUGE bottle and I got it on sale at the time so TOTAL WIN for me 🥇 🏆… But even not on sale it’s still worth it.
Everyone is saying it’s an old trick but I’m 50 yo and I never heard of it before! I’m exited to try it, I must have been asleep or something when they handed out girl secrets back in the day 😂😂😂
This is a technique called layering n you can use any lotion or skin oil then spray any perfume to make it last longer. I worked for Avon n they literally teach all employees this. That was bout 20 years ago so most women know this. Teens are just catching up lol. If you don't add it to your oil you can literally change out any scent you want n not be stuck with the same one always.
I can't believe how rude people are being in these comments. None of us know anything until we are taught...so how are we supposed to learn if no one teaches us? My goodness people are salty behind their keyboards. 🙄
In my 30’s never even heard of the products used to create this hack😅 thanks to you I’m going to try it and I think I will go with vanilla too because I’m not much of an amber girl either. Thanks for the tip 😊
Make sure to moisturize the area with a cream before and put vaseline over it and then spray a long lasting perfume on it it usually works for me + Spray in areas where it pulses like the wrist and the neck because thats where the heat is to activate the parfum
This reminds me of when I was a little girl, and we would make homemade “potions” with antique perfume bottles for our parents, specifically for Mother’s Day and other holidays. I am 43 so I’ve known this hack for a very long time but thanks for sharing with others.
I got that Neutrogena oil and I love it...apply it after shower or bathe while still kinda wet skin feels so soft especially after a body scrub. Nd this smell good hack does work bc I do it on a regular basis ❤
All perfumes are made from fragranced or synthetic oils, the alcohol perfume base was invented to stretch those expensive oils and make them last longer with less irritation.
😂 Hahaha, I love the voice! Definitely putting this into practice cause I asked someone last week if I had a scent and they couldn't give me an answer.
In case anyone didn’t know, the oil helps the Fran grande last waaaay longer! You can do this with any of your favorite perfumes and even use Vaseline on the wrists or chest before spraying. Acts as a barrier against the harsh alcohol but will make the scent last hours longer
For some reason recently, the Neutrogena bath oil has been taken off all the shelves everywhere, including Walmart, and can only be found on Amazon. I hope no one is getting an allergic reaction to it.
My family has been making perfume oils for generations, but we use high-quality carrier oil. People go crazy for the scent, and it literally lasts the entire day. A little goes a very long way, so oil products last very long.
I wanna know where to purchase scented body oil to add to the unscented oil? Or do you put the regular perfume and mix with the unscented oil? I'm 47 yrs old, I'm asking because in the summer, I can only wear scented oil and not perfume spray. I'm highly allergic mosquitoes and if I wear perfume, they eat me alive! Then, I'll have to rush and get a shot 😢
